Why Book a Limo to Go Golfing?
When you think of golfing, booking a limo may not be your first thought. The following are a few good reasons to consider booking a limousine:
1. If you decide to check out some of the local breweries or wineries along the way, you do not need a designated driver.
2. You do not have to waste any golf time looking for the golf courses. Our drivers know the fastest routes to all the award winning courses. They may also have a few tips about the courses.
3. It is a pity to only check out one of our unique courses. Hit a few buckets of balls at few courses before settling down at your main course. (Get it? Course?) Our local driver will help you plan the best way to maximize your time.
4. Oregon has very strict DUI laws, so if you plan on doing any drinking on the links, at lunch or at dinner, be sure to have a designated driver.
5. Oregon also has very strict penalties for driving while talking or texting. You are going to want to take photos of the beautiful scenery to and from the golf courses. Our friendly drivers will be happy to stop and take your photos along the way.
