For many travellers, South Africa hasn’t been on the radar, yet it’s quickly becoming one of the most exciting long-haul golf destinations. Stunning coastlines, world-class courses, award-winning wine regions and unforgettable wildlife experiences make it a journey unlike any other.
At Golfbookings, we craft every itinerary around your interests, pace and style of travel, ensuring your experience is entirely your own.
South Africa’s Must-Play Courses
Nestled along the Garden Route, Fancourt offers three remarkable courses. The Links channels the great courses of the British Isles, with rolling fairways, clever bunkering and an atmosphere that feels both exclusive and authentic.

Leopard Creek lies on the boundary of Kruger National Park, offering championship golf with a wild, natural backdrop. The signature hole overlooking the Crocodile River is a moment golfers remember long after the round.

High above the Indian Ocean, Pinnacle Point combines cliff-top tee shots with sweeping panoramas and cleverly designed holes. It’s a course for those seeking exceptional golf paired with unforgettable scenery.

Two Sample Trips to Inspire You

After rounds, relax at a lodge under African skies, with optional game drives to see the Big Five. From tee times to safari experiences, every element is personalized as a bespoke golf trip to suit your ideal journey.
Planning Your Trip
South Africa is a year-round golf destination, but the ideal season depends on where you want to play:
Cape Town & Garden Route: best from October to April with warm, dry summer conditions.
Kruger Region: beautiful in winter months from May to September, with mild temperatures and clear visibility.
Distances between regions can be significant, so combining Cape Town, the Garden Route and the Kruger area works best with smart routing, something we handle seamlessly when planning your bespoke trip.
