The host of a golf tour has several key responsibilities:

• Liaison and Coordination: The host acts as the liaison between travelers and various service providers, such as golf courses, hotels, and transport companies, making sure that all arrangements align smoothly.
• Scheduling and Logistical Support: They oversee the scheduling of tee times, accommodations, and transportation to ensure that all activities occur timely and efficiently. This includes working with golf facilities for appropriate tee times and ensuring that participants have the necessary resources, such as golf carts and caddies where available.
• Personalized Assistance: The host provides personalized attention, offering advice on golfing techniques, local insights, and perhaps arranging additional activities for non-golfing companions.
• Problem Solving: The host must quickly address any issues or changes that arise during the tour, ensuring minimal disruption to the participants’ experience.

Participants in a hosted golf tour are expected to:

Follow the planned schedule of activities to ensure the smooth operation of the tour. While there may be some flexibility, sticking to the core itinerary helps everyone enjoy a seamless experience. Actively participate in the scheduled activities, such as golfing sessions and group events. Engaged participants contribute to a positive group dynamic.

Show consideration for other travelers and the host by being punctual and respectful, ensuring an enjoyable experience for all. Handle personal costs, such as gratuities for guides, drivers, and caddies, which are generally not included in the tour package. Tipping is at the participant’s discretion, aligning with standard travel practices. Bring a flexible and positive attitude, open to experiencing new courses and potentially different golfing conditions.

Whether you’re a single golfer or traveling with friends, our tours are ideal for anyone passionate about the game. Golfers of all levels, from beginners to seasoned players, are welcome. Jacques is a top-class coach and each tour includes a wide range of tuition as detailed in the itinerary, helping you to improve your game while enjoying the beautiful surroundings.

At some courses, caddies will be available to enhance your experience, and golf carts are provided unless otherwise indicated in the tour details.

Non-golfing companions are welcome to join the tour and can enjoy alternative activities or simply relax at the resort. Our tours include accommodation at a variety of luxury stays in the 4-star and 5-star range, offering a comfortable and plush retreat after a day on the course. Participants also have the option to extend their stay based on availability.

You can add optional nights pre or post-tour to make the most of your trip. While gratuities for guides, drivers, and caddies are not included in the package, tipping is at your discretion.

The scheduled tour itinerary is thoughtfully planned to offer the best experiences. However, we are always open to discussing customizations to accommodate specific preferences.

Please note that airfares are not included in the tour packages, but we take care of transportation for all scheduled activities, including transfers between golf courses and hotels.

So, pack your clubs and get ready for a golf tour that’s par for the course—with a little extra on the greens!
