"When our golf group decided we wanted to go to Iceland, I reached out to Pursue Iceland to inquire about their programs. We wanted 4-5 rounds of golf, including midnight golf and some tourist activities that would enhance the trip. They responded with the perfect itinerary.
Throughout the planning process, communication was easy and timely. When we arrived we were greeted at the airport and taken to the fantastic hotel Pursue Iceland had selected. We played a variety of courses that highlighted the different types of courses in Iceland. Due to some extremely bad weather, the golf tour manager arranged a round like the locals play in the winter. We had a nice balance of touring to see the country, great restaurants and interesting, well maintained, playable golf courses.
Our trip was a huge success because the Icelandic Tour manager and Pursue Iceland took tremendous care in making sure we had a great time. They were always one step ahead in adjusting the itinerary due to weather and other logistical requirements. I highly recommend you reach out to Pursue Iceland to provide a stress free golf trip of a lifetime."
