Open Golf on the Orient Express
Thursday 19th & Friday 20th July 2012
Royal Lytham is one of the greatest links courses in the world, host to ten Open Championships, two Ryder Cups and numerous other major tournaments. This is a links course with two strange aspects-there are no sea views and the course opens with a par three. It is fitting that the Open should return to Lytham in the year after the passing of Seve Ballesteros, one of his favourite courses where he famously won two Opens in 1979 &1988.
We are offering you the opportunity to attend the Open Championship by combining this wonderful event with the magnificent splendour of the Orient Express. Enjoy a sumptuous brunch as you journey north followed by a gourmet four course dinner on your return journey served with wines.
For your convenience there is a choice of two departure points–either London Euston or Birmingham International.
The full Orient Express Package will include:
- Admission Ticket to The Open Championship on either Thursday 19th or Friday 20th July 2012
- Daily Drawsheet
- Reserved seat on The Orient Express
- Three course champagne Bellini brunch on outward journey
- Four course dinner served with wine on the return journey
