Drop and Go

Designed specifically for individuals whose partners or friends are playing golf on one of the courses listed below. This allows for non-golfers who would like to see their friends or partners either tee off, watch them as they finish, or perhaps both, yet still be able to visit some wonderful locations on the same day as the partners or friends play golf

Drop & Go is not a standalone tour; it's loosely based on one of our existing tours and fits better with mid or late morning tee times so that venues are open when you visit, however we are here to listen and accommodate, and will endeavour to build an itinerary that keeps everyone happy.

”Don’t count the days, make the days count” Muhammad Ali

So here is the deal

The plan is to drive to the golf course, drop off the golfers, and then proceed with our tour, hence the name "Drop & Go". Please share your thoughts and preferences with us on our contact page for further consideration.

Drop the golfers off ahead of their Tee Time (we suggest 1 hour +) and then go touring.
Drop them off, watch the golfers tee off, before going touring.
Be there after their round or watch them finish their round, before heading home.
The golfers have their own transport to and from the course arranged, and you just want to pop by and watch as they finish their round.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there other Courses that can be included in the "Drop & Go"

We can accommodate any of the Golf Course in the area, there’s simply too many to add to the list, for example Crail, Ladybank, Lundin Links and Scotscraig are all reasonably close by. We can even drop the golfers at the Old Course and go touring.

We had an absolutely fantastic day with David and Beyond St Andrews. From beginning to end, he was far more than simply our driver — he genuinely became part of what made the day so memorable.

David was personable, knowledgeable, funny and incredibly easy to spend the day with. His knowledge of the area was outstanding, and as an avid golfer, he seemed to know virtually every golf course we passed — along with some wonderful stories and local insight that you simply wouldn’t get touring on your own.

The black Mercedes V-Class was beautiful and extremely comfortable, but the real highlight was David himself. Nothing felt rushed or scripted. The entire day was relaxed, interesting and fun, and his personality turned what could have simply been transportation and sightseeing into one of the highlights of our time in Scotland.

We’ve traveled extensively and have used many private drivers and guides over the years, and David is exactly what you hope for when booking this type of experience.

If you’re considering Beyond St Andrews, ask for David. We would book with him again without hesitation. Five stars aren’t enough!

I wanted to step outside of St Andrews and opted for the City of Discovery tour to include all 'Recommended Stops', it did not disappoint. We were pleasantly surprised by the history and museums of Dundee, and were pleased with the advice and knowledge that Laurie offered, and of course, the luxury mode of travel!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We chose the “Heart of Scotland” tour and enjoyed an exceptional day exploring its many memorable sights.
Our first stop was the Wallace Monument, where a shuttle bus took us from the car park to the base. We then climbed the 246 steps—phew—up the narrow spiral staircase, with three welcome levels along the way to catch our breath and learn more about William Wallace. From the summit, the countryside views were spectacular; on a clear day like ours, you could see for miles.
Just three miles further on, we reached Stirling Castle and the Church of the Holy Rude. The castle’s rich history was captivating, and the excellent free local guide was both knowledgeable and friendly, as were all the staff.
On our way back to St Andrews, we ended the tour at dusk beneath the Forth Road Bridge, which was stunning. Scotland is a truly beautiful and striking country.
Our host Laurie answered all our questions thoughtfully and gave us time to chat among ourselves, without the constant commentary often found on guided tours.
We highly recommend this excursion and will definitely book another tour with the Company the next time we return to St. Andrews.
Many thanks to the Beyond St Andrews team for making both the booking and the tour such a pleasure.
Bobby and friends.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We arranged a trip with Beyond St Andrews to Glamis Castle in Sept, 2025 and had a truly wonderful experience. The Mercedes van used by Beyond St Andrews provided a very pleasant travel experience on some narrow and windy roads.  Our driver Laurie provided excellent coverage of local places and events on the journey. On arrival we were dropped off at the entrance to Glamis Castle with detailed advice provided by Laurie on how to make the best of the visit. We spent a very nice afternoon on the guided tour of the castle, visiting the various sites around the grounds. The Castle Kitchen Restaurant was highly recommended by Laurie and the food there was excellent, we had the Glamis Bridie a tasty pastry parcel of venison.  The reference to the “Thanes of Glamis” in Shakespeare's play MacBeth was highlighted by some amazing wood sculptures, in the MacBeth Loop, depicting scenes from the play. We were picked up promptly at the arranged time and the journey back to St Andrews was very pleasant with Laurie providing an entertaining guide to points of interest in the area. Dundee was navigated with ease, and we were very pleased with our outing to Glamis Castle and would highly recommend Beyond St Andrews.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Five stars all the way. Our trip from St Andrews to The Macallan Distillery was fantastic, and Beyond St Andrews made the whole experience feel special. The vehicle was incredibly comfortable, clean, and relaxing, which made the drive just as enjoyable as the destination itself.

The service was amazing from beginning to end. Everything was handled so professionally, and we felt completely taken care of throughout the trip. It was smooth, stress-free, and felt like a truly premium experience.

Visiting Macallan was already a highlight of our time in Scotland, and Beyond St Andrews made getting there and back a real pleasure. I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting a comfortable, first-class experience.
