Who this trip suits
An all inclusive South Africa golf holiday suits the traveler who wants world class courses, a safari and outstanding value wrapped into one seamless package. It works beautifully for couples, buddies groups and families alike, because the golf shares the bill with game drives, the Cape Winelands and the Garden Route. The favorable exchange rate means a five star trip here costs far less than the equivalent in Europe or the United States.
The all inclusive part is the appeal: lodging, most meals, the green fees, transfers or a hire car and often a safari, bundled so you arrive to a sorted schedule. Resorts like Fancourt and Sun City package golf, stay and dining together, while a Leopard Creek round is built around a Kruger lodge.
