What to expect...
A west coast tour celebrates the Dormie LA Workshop, which opened last year. SoCal is awesome, with breathtaking golf courses, palm trees, a laid-back vibe, gourmet food and high-end accommodation. The sun usually shines too.
A bespoke experience features an itinerary that is full, but not too full. It provides you with an opportunity to enjoy the hotel amenities and local restaurants as well as golf each day on some of the best courses SoCal has to offer. This will be serious fun, for lovers of the game. It’s a chance to relax, connect and walk away with memories that last a lifetime.
Hosted by Jeff Bishop (co-founder of Dormie Workshop) & Gavin Stewart (founder of TPG), this tour is limited to 16 people.
