FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Below we have tried to answer the most common questions we receive from our guests. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us.

HOW DO I BOOK MY TOUR?

After we discuss your requirements by email or phone, we will send you a no-obligation offer. If it is necessary to adjust your itinerary, we will do so and when you are completely satisfied, we will send you an invoice, which will be divided into a deposit part and a supplementary part. Once we receive the deposit, your trip will be officially booked. All you need to do is organise your flights and pack your clubs.

HOW LARGE GROUPS DO YOU ORGANISE TOURS FOR?

We take care of individual golfers to entire golf teams. Most often, however, our clients travel in groups of 4 to 8 people.

WILL A DRIVER OR DELEGATE FROM THE HOTEL PICK ME UP AT THE AIRPORT?

Upon arrival at your chosen airport, you will be picked up by a driver or delegate. From then on, he or she will be available whenever you need him or her, for example to deal with phone calls, changes in travel arrangements, cancellations, dinner reservations or to organise other activities as you wish. He or she will look after your luggage and golf clubs all the time between check-ins from one hotel to the next, and will always be one step ahead to make sure your luxury holiday is in perfect order and running like clockwork. As he is already experienced, you will always arrive at the course in plenty of time to warm up and recover before your game. Your delegate will always be on hand to book you a table at the restaurant of your choice and recommend the best bars in the area.

HOW CAN I PAY?

We accept payment by bank transfer on the basis of an invoice and signed contract.

WILL MY CELL PHONE WORK IN THE UNITED KINGDOM?

We recommend that you contact your mobile operator before you travel to ensure that your device is correctly set up to function in the UK and Ireland. However, it is important to remember that mobile phones are not allowed on most golf courses or in all clubs.

WHAT IS THE DRESS CODE ON GOLF COURSES?

Most golf clubs aren’t too strict about clothing on the course, but it’s usually not possible to wear shorts and you have to wear at least a collared shirt. It is not appropriate to wear caps/hats and golf shoes or trainers inside the clubs and some clubs may insist on a jacket and tie when in certain areas of the club. Your driver/delegate will advise you of the requirements of that club the day before your game.

WHAT'S THE WEATHER GONNA BE LIKE?

The weather in Scotland and Ireland is very changeable, especially on the west coast. It is likely that you will experience rainy weather and we recommend that you prepare accordingly. Most pro shops in clubs are stocked with waterproof clothing in case there is nothing to hand.

DO I NEED TO TAKE OUT TRAVEL INSURANCE?

We definitely recommend that you take out travel insurance for your trip in case any complications arise. The insurance should cover cancellation fees, medical costs, personal belongings in case of loss or failure to deliver your luggage on time to your destination. Please check the terms of your insurance before you travel.

WHAT ABOUT TIPS?

Although there is no officially announced tipping rate for Scotland and Ireland, we recommend leaving at least a 15% tip for food and at least 30% for the caddie, in case you are happy with it. Your driver/delegate will inform you of the prices on each course.

ARE YOU ABLE TO PROVIDE A CADDIE / CADDY?

Most courses do not guarantee requested caddies. However, ParadeGolf maintains a good relationship with the Caddie Masters at all of the venues used by our customers and your driver/delegate will do everything possible to ensure you have a decent caddie selection throughout your tour. We appreciate that quality can vary at each course, but we will be able to recommend those who will not let you down. Depending on your itinerary, it is possible to keep your favourite caddie for several rounds.

DO I HAVE TO CARRY MY ZTP CARD?

Many playgrounds have disability restrictions and/or require a card or certificate of disability. So that you don’t have to prove yourself every time, Parade Golf will keep a copy of your ID and sign the entire group in to give you time to recover and make a few putts. Please email us a scanned copy of your card/disability certificate before your trip.

CAN I USE A GOLF CART?

Most courses have a limited number of trolleys and reserve them for those golfers with the most severe disabilities. However, some courses do not have carts at all. If you definitely require a trolley, we recommend that you let us know as soon as possible so that we can put together a suitable itinerary with the greatest number of rounds using a trolley.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO RENT GOLF CLUBS?

Yes. You can rent golf clubs on site for £55 (approx. 1085 CZK).
