Africa’s breathtaking landscapes and the great outdoors make it a top destination for unforgettable adventures. If golf is your game, add it to the mix, and you’ve got a match made in heaven. Golf on safari combines two passions – wildlife and the game you love – into one memorable experience.
Why Choose a Golfing Safari?
New places to play golf is a top reason why many people take holidays. And the idea of 18 holes on a links surrounded by, and sometimes even shared with, Africa’s untamed wilderness is a tempting one.
Whether it’s the bush, the beach, the fairways or all of the above, we would be thrilled to have the opportunity to organize your unforgettable golfing safari.
Because we understand the importance of choosing the right operator and the right lodges for your safari experience. Beyond the logistical details, we also recognize the deeper need to create lifelong memories with your loved ones.
Don’t just take our word for it – here’s what some of our clients have to say:
‘Safari, absolutely, yes, do it, it is amazing. And when you do decide, Safari.com will do you right ... the entire experience was the best part of my trip :)’ – Damian Glennon, Canada
Golf on Safari: Play Among Wildlife
Golf is one of the world’s top participation sports, played by about 40 million people globally. It’s a popular sport in South Africa, home to golf legends Gary Player and Ernie Els, the Big Easy.
There are more than 400 courses dotted around the country, several designed by top names, including Jack Nicklaus. These courses are renowned for their design excellence, stunning natural surroundings and challenging play.
You could take that ‘stunning natural surroundings’ and tack it onto most golf courses in Africa.
‘What a great booking experience … [it] provided me with confidence that I was in good hands and my trip would be exactly what I was looking for.’ – Phillip Marshall, UK
