From world-renowned golf courses and superb luxury lodge accommodation to exclusive sightseeing and cultural experiences, the 14 Day New Zealand Self-Drive Golf Tour brings together the very best of New Zealand in one incredible all-inclusive tour.
Play these championship golf courses on the self-guided tour:
Designed to provide an exclusive and stress-free experience, our golf tours handle every detail, from premium rental cars to green fees and pre-booked tee times. Stay at peerless luxury lodge accommodation, with many gourmet meals included, and indulge in unforgettable New Zealand sightseeing experiences around the country.
Non-golfing partners will find the experience equally rewarding, because each destination offers a tantalising range of activities and sightseeing opportunities not far from the golf course.
Begin your New Zealand golf escape with a domestic flight up to Kerikeri, where you will collect your rental car from the airport and make the short journey to Kauri Cliffs.
Nestled along a stunning stretch of coastline, Kauri Cliffs combines a rugged working farm with the sophisticated charm and hospitality of the Rosewood Kauri Cliffs luxury lodge and the world-renowned golf course.
The whole of the sprawling property enjoys spectacular views over the coast, which overlooks the Cavalli Islands rising from the Pacific Ocean. Private beaches, forest walks, and a rejuvenating spa await guests who stay in the elegant, spacious rooms of Rosewood Kauri Cliffs. In addition, enjoy daily breakfast, a pre-dinner aperitif, and gourmet dinner.
Included today:
Stay 3 nights at Kauri Cliffs.
Playing across rolling hills that slope toward sheer ocean cliffs, Kauri Cliffs commands fantastic views from every hole. The David Harman-designed course offers a formidable challenge, with ravines and gorges to navigate and firm, fast greens. The views are among the best of any golf course in the world, and the coastal scenery demands attention, but the play is exciting as well, with some holes playing to the edges of cliffs and others skirting alongside bush-clad ravines.
Included today:
Today, discover the subtropical paradise of the Bay of Islands on a luxury private sailing charter. The half-day charter is a bespoke experience tailored to your interests, whether that means stopping at a secluded island to enjoy water-based activities or sailing the length of the archipelago. Unwind, rejuvenate, and experience the serenity of your idyllic surrounds.
Included today:
Journey south to a new golf destination that has captured attention worldwide since its debut within the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World. Home to two championship golf courses, Te Arai Links follows a stretch of undulating coastal dunes.
If you wish to play both courses during your stay, you have the option to add on an extra round of golf this afternoon.
Your accommodation at Te Arai Links nestles amidst the dunes, with an elegantly naturalistic design that melds seamlessly with the surrounds. Spacious and minimalistic, the rooms take in the abundant coastal sunshine and frame sweeping ocean views. Your stay includes a la carte breakfast.
Included today:
Stay 2 nights at Te Arai Links.
Choose either the North Course or South Course for your round of golf today.
The South Course closely follows the waterfront, with fantastic views from almost every hole. Designed by Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw, the course undulates through coastal dunes and windswept grasses.
Situated more inland, the North Course plays across rollercoaster terrain with unusual green shapes that invite multiple approaches. Though the Tom Doak-designed course is enjoyable for players of all levels, each hole requires thought and planning, and the game will linger in your memory long after you conquer the final hole.
Included today:
Journey to the central North Island today to discover a region rich in geothermal activity and Māori cultural heritage.
Stay at Solitaire Lodge, a sumptuous retreat tucked by the shores of Lake Tarawera. Surrounded by native bush, the elegant, airy suites open out to views across the water to the volcanic landscape beyond. During your stay, enjoy breakfast, a light lunch, pre-dinner drinks and canapes, and a five-course evening meal.
Included today:
Stay 2 nights in Rotorua.
This morning, discover the wonders of Te Whakarewarewa Thermal Valley on the guided Te Puia Te Rā experience. Witness a stirring cultural performance including the famous haka, visit the Pōhutu Geyser and the Kiwi Conservation Centre, and watch expert artisans at work at the New Zealand Māori Arts and Crafts Institute. Throughout the tour, your guide will share ancestral stories, traditions, and heritage that weave together an understanding of their rich Māori culture.
In the afternoon, indulge in the rejuvenating Tānga Haumanu Takirua experience at Wai Ariki Hot Springs & Spa. Enjoy 60 minutes of Sanctuary Bathing in two geothermal mineral pools and a stargazing pool, a private geothermal bath, a 90-minute wellness massage, a graze platter, and a non-alcoholic beverage of your choice.
Included today:
Continue south today to a golf destination that consistently ranks among New Zealand’s very best.
Cape Kidnappers sits atop a dramatic coastal peninsula with plunging cliffs and deep ravines. As a sister property to Kauri Cliffs, Cape Kidnappers is also home to a working farm and the magnificent Rosewood Cape Kidnappers luxury lodge. In addition, the private wildlife sanctuary found on the vast property provides refuge for countless rare species of birds.
Commanding views across the verdant peninsula to the Pacific Ocean, Rosewood Cape Kidnappers surrounds guests with luxury in the style of an elegant country retreat. Your stay includes breakfast, a pre-dinner aperitif, and gourmet dinner.
Included today:
Stay 3 nights at Cape Kidnappers.
Following deceptively narrow fingers of land edged by bush-clad ravines and playing alongside sheer cliffs, Cape Kidnappers challenges and delights golfers in equal measure. While the clifftop holes command the most spectacular views, the inland portion of the course is equally memorable for its technical complexity and exciting plays. Designed by Tom Doak to follow the natural contours of the land, the course is a stern test, requiring daring shots over ravines and careful approaches. This is truly a standout course even in a country known for golf.
Included today:
Venture beyond the golf course and discover the greater Hawkes Bay region on a rewarding day out, with a gannet safari followed by a private wine tour.
Home to the world’s largest and most accessible gannet nesting location, Cape Kidnappers offers a memorable encounter with these elegant birds. Travel in comfort to a viewing location just metres away from the gannet colony, where you can see the birds diving for fish and wheeling overhead in staggering numbers.
After your gannet safari, venture to the rugged, picturesque vineyards beyond Cape Kidnappers for a private wine tour with a third-generation Hawke’s Bay winemaker. Known for its red wine blends and aromatic whites, Hawke’s Bay brings together a diverse set of micro-regions where countless varietals thrive. Your tour includes tastings at four notable wineries and a relaxed vineyard platter lunch.
Included today:
Drop off your rental car at Napier Airport and board a domestic flight to Queenstown, the golf capital of New Zealand.
Rising from the shores of Lake Wakatipu, Queenstown brings together a dazzling mix of mountain splendour, adventure sports, and luxury offerings. During your stay, experience both the renowned championship golf courses and the magnificent wilderness just beyond Queenstown.
Your accommodation at ROKI places you within easy reach of downtown Queenstown, with expansive lake and mountain views and sumptuous suites. Enjoy unparalleled hospitality from the moment you walk in the door, with every detail attended to. Breakfast and pre-dinner canapes are included in your stay.
Included today:
Stay 4 nights in Queenstown.
Embark on a spectacular flightseeing tour and cruise today and discover the vast wilderness bordering Queenstown. Begin with a scenic flight over the braided rivers, mountains, and glaciers of Mount Aspiring National Park before passing into the lush temperate rainforest and near-vertical mountainsides of Fiordland National Park.
Land at Milford Sound Airport, at the foot of Mitre Peak, and board a scenic cruise through the deep waters of Milford Sound. View wildlife and cascading waterfalls as you cruise the length of the iconic fiord out to the Tasman Sea before returning to board your flight back to Queenstown.
Included today:
Situated in spectacular surrounds between the shores of Lake Wakatipu and the towering Remarkables mountain range, Jack’s Point is the crown jewel of Queenstown’s marquee golf courses.
Designed by John Darby to flow with the natural shape of the land, Jack’s Point incorporates steep bluffs, schist outcrops, and native tussocks. While the staggering views demand attention from every hole, the course design is equally notable, offering an exhilarating challenge.
Included today:
Choose from two championship courses at Millbrook for your final day of New Zealand golf. Best known as the home of the New Zealand Open, Millbrook was designed by Sir Bob Charles and Greg Turner.
Looping around water features and playing across immaculately maintained fairways, the original Remarkables course sits near Millbrook Resort. Meanwhile, the newer Coronet course ventures into the rugged landscape beyond, incorporating natural features such as steep bluffs and the meandering Mill Stream.
This afternoon, you may wish to explore the nearby Arrowtown. The historic mining settlement has a picturesque main street lined with boutique shops and cafes, with numerous wineries in the surrounding region.
Included today:
After a final gourmet breakfast at ROKI, make your way to Queenstown Airport to drop off your rental car and board your departing flight.
