Why New Zealand
Why New Zealand for Golf?
No country has improved its golf offering more dramatically over the past 20 years than New Zealand. Today, world top 100 coastal courses sit alongside modern walking links, alpine resort layouts, and heritage gems — all within a country small enough to experience in a single curated trip. For international golfers, the advantage is density. In one journey you move from Pacific dunes to cliff-top fairways, temperate wine regions, historic links, and world-famous adventure towns. The scenery changes every few hours. The hospitality never wavers.
New Zealand, from above.

Accommodation & Transfers
We work with the Accor Group to provide accommodation from 3 to 5 star, matched to each guest's preferred standard and budget. Accor's New Zealand portfolio covers a wide range of options, from the reliable comfort of ibis and Mercure to the higher service levels of Novotel, Pullman, MGallery and Sofitel. This lets us tailor every itinerary, whether you want a practical base between rounds or a more indulgent stay. Where Accor doesn't have a hotel in a particular area, we'll book a property of a similar standard so your experience stays consistent throughout the tour.
For golfers who want to stay on course, we can arrange accommodation at some of the country's most celebrated golf destinations. These include the Rosewood properties at Kauri Cliffs in Northland, Cape Kidnappers in Hawke's Bay and Matakauri Lodge in Queenstown, as well as Millbrook Resort in Arrowtown. We can also book a range of New Zealand's luxury lodges on request.
All private and group transfers use modern luxury vans or coaches, so you travel in comfort between courses, accommodation and attractions. If you'd like something more exclusive, we can arrange private helicopter or plane transfers on request. They save time and give you some of New Zealand's most spectacular views from the air.
