Would you rather pick your own dates? Our South Africa golf holidays page has every hotel and course we sell, with live prices.
For an American golfer, South Africa is two trips in one: first-rate golf at a fraction of US resort prices, and a Big Five safari on the same holiday. The catch is the planning: flights, courses, transfers and a country you don’t know. The answer is a fully-hosted tour, where a UK specialist arranges every detail and travels with you.
Why hosted, not DIY
A hosted tour removes every unknown: a fixed itinerary, a small group, a host who handles the tee times, the transfers and the dinners. You fly in and play golf. It is the done-for-you way to tick off a bucket-list destination that feels a long way from home.
What the trip looks like
Ten days around Cape Town and the Winelands, from 28 February to 9 March 2027: nine nights split between The Vineyard in Cape Town and Silver Forest in Somerset West, and six rounds, from Royal Cape to Erinvale. The golf ends with a farewell dinner. A Big Five safari at Gondwana, on the Garden Route, is an optional extension afterwards. There is one departure, with twelve places.
