New Zealand Golf Escapes View Basket

So many golf courses, so little time …

Henry Miller once said - “One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.” Well, how about seeing New Zealand from a fairway with a view?

New Zealand has long been popular as a travel destination for its stunning landscapes, natural wonders, outdoor adventures and Maori culture. However, the country has only recently been recognised as a golfing paradise due to large investment in creating international standard courses and the prominence of homegrown, world-class players; in fact, it now boasts two courses ranked in the world’s Top 50.

Kirra Tours is an associate member of The Best of Golf New Zealand, encompassing 17 courses the length and breadth of the country. A detailed map featuring these and more can be found in this brochure, as well as a great collection of golfing packages, suggestions and itineraries.

The independent self-drive golf breaks and short stays will certainly give you plenty of choice. Travel at your own pace and explore New Zealand with the added benefit of a round at some of New Zealand’s great golf courses.

This is a fantastic option for families accompanying the golfer, as there is plenty to do besides golf! But it’s also perfect for small groups focused on the ball! From a 4-day “Let’s Golf” packages in the major cities and resorts throughout the country with a regional focus through to the longer 6 and 13 day self drive itineraries, there’s one to suit.

Take in the whole of North or South Island, the Thermal Region, the centre of the country, beginning in Wellington before cruising across Cook Strait to the South Island or Short Breaks in and around Auckland, Northland, Nelson, Christchurch, Queenstown, for instance.

The longer itineraries can be linked to create an extended and more in-depth golf and sightseeing holiday in New Zealand.  Your independent self-drive package can start on any day and all the arrangements are then reserved in advance.

If you are a group interested in an itinerary that’s specially developed for you, then Kirra Tours consultants can cater to groups of any size and tailor an itinerary that’s bound to get everyone excited! Kirra Tours can arrange your accommodation from budget to luxury, transport in coaches or self-drive mini vans, sightseeing and activities, along with your green fees and carts.
