Golf Tours

South Africa is blessed with the climate, landscape and scenery to have some of the most spectacular & challenging golf courses on the planet.  It also hosts several top tournaments each year - probably the best known is the Nedbank Million Dollar Golf Challenge held at  Sun City in November each year.   The country has also produced some of the world's great golfers - like Gary Player, Bobby Locke, Ernie Els, Retief Goosen and Trevor Immelman.

You'll find heaps of golf courses dotted around the country - from humble country clubs with sand greens and very rough fairways, to manicured courses in wealthy golf estates.

These were recently voted the Top 10 Courses in the country:

• Leopard Creek - near Malelane on the southern border of Kruger National Park - designed by Gary Player and where you could well meet up with a hippo or crocodile on the waterholes.
• Gary Player Course at Sun City
• Wild Coast Country Club near Port Edward on the scenic Eastern Cape coast
• Fancourt Estate - in George in the heart of the picturesque Garden Route
