On Wednesday 5 August 2026, the St Andrews Links Clubhouse will host a guided walk of the Old Course, commencing at 10am. Led by an expert guide, the tour traces the very fairways and greens trodden by golfing legends over the centuries, offering participants a player’s perspective of the hallowed ground. Along the way, attendees will learn about the course’s storied history, which encompasses more than six centuries of recorded play. The walk also delves into the long-held belief that golf’s origins in St Andrews may reach back as far as the 12th century. Ticket prices are available on the venue’s website.
Join an expert guide on a tour of the world's most famous golf course. Walk in the footsteps of icons of the game and experience a player's eye view of the fabled links.
Historic records show that golf has been played in St Andrews for more than 600 years, although many believe the game's origins here date back to the 12th Century. As well as being the birthplace of the game of golf, our tour of the world's most famous Links will give you an insight into the iconic landmarks and a history that is both unique and unparalleled. With the Old Course busy for play six days a week throughout the year, this tour is a great way to soak up the history of the centuries-old fairways without having to secure a coveted tee time.
