Our Record

Voyages.golf is built on more than three decades of experience delivering carefully curated sports and golf travel experiences. Our story began in 1993 with Events Travel, a family-run business dedicated to creating seamless, high-quality journeys around the world’s great sporting occasions and golf destinations. From the outset, the focus has been on access, organisation, and delivering experiences that go beyond the standard package.

In 2018, Voyages.golf was launched as a dedicated luxury golf travel brand, bringing that heritage into a more refined, golfer-first offering. Since then, our tours have centred on playing the world’s most respected courses, staying in exceptional accommodation, and travelling in a way that feels considered, comfortable, and personal. Small groups, strong relationships with clubs and Hotels, and hands-on service are central to how we operate.

That depth of experience has also seen Voyages. golf recognised within the game’s most prestigious circles. When The R&A introduced its Authorised Provider Programme for The Open Championship in 2019, we were selected as part of the inaugural group—acknowledging our capability to deliver authentic, well-executed golf travel at the highest level.

Reviews

All Reviews Gathered by Trustpilot, the Independent Review Platform

Once again, Voyages Golf provided us with the trip of a lifetime. This is our 5th trip with this great team, who created a seamless and stressless South African golf adventure. Every detail was covered and our only complaint is that we had to come home. The golf courses, the accommodation, the food, the touring group, the tour guides, the on-ground transfers were outstanding, leaving us with life-time memories. Thank you Harry, Glenn & Gayle – you were beyond amazing.

– Jeff & Lisa M – Australia

Voyages.golf was recommended to me thru the R&A for the Open Championship. I am very pleased I chose them to handle my vacation details. They offered a great package to tie in with my Open tickets, allowing me to go about my plans while they took care of all the details from hotel and transfers to/from Open venue. I even added on additional vacation details which they handled and everything went off without any issues. Voyages.golf kept me up to date with all details and any changes that arose. From start to end, they were on top of all details and I would highly recommend them to anyone interested.

– Arthur F – United States

Incredibly well planned and executed. Excellent communication and attention to details. Did a great job creating bonds between clients. They are passionate about golf and creating a fantastic experience for their clients. The golf courses were excellent and the activities the Voyages team chose were perfect. The whole experience exceeded my expectations. I will be a repeat client for sure!

Golf Information

Oitavos Dunes – Cascais, Portugal

Year Opened: 2001

Oitavos Dunes is widely regarded as Portugal’s finest modern links course and one of the best in continental Europe. Designed by Arthur Hills and set within a protected coastal dune system near Cabo da Roca, the course offers a true links experience with firm fairways, strategic bunkering, and uninterrupted Atlantic Ocean views from every hole.

The layout makes minimal use of trees, instead relying on natural contours, wind, and ground game options to challenge golfers. Its environmental credentials are notable, with the course carefully integrated into the surrounding landscape. Oitavos consistently ranks among the top courses in Europe and is a benchmark for modern links design outside the British Isles.

Penha Longa Atlantic Course – Sintra, Portugal

Designer: Robert Trent Jones Jr.

Year Opened: 1992

Set within the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, the Atlantic Course at Penha Longa offers a dramatic contrast to Oitavos Dunes. Designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr., the course winds through forested hills, granite outcrops, and valleys beneath Sintra’s UNESCO-listed mountains.

The Atlantic Course has hosted the Portuguese Open on multiple occasions and is known for its elevation changes, long par fours, and demanding approach shots. Strategic play is essential, with several holes framed by natural rock formations and mature woodland. It is a championship course that rewards thoughtful shot-making and provides one of Portugal’s most scenic inland golf experiences.

Palmares Golf –Algarve, Portugal

Designer: Robert Trent Jones Jr. (Redesign)

Year Opened: 1975 (Redesigned 2011–2015)

Palmares is a distinctive coastal course overlooking the Bay of Lagos, combining links-style holes near the ocean with parkland elements further inland. Robert Trent Jones Jr.’s redesign transformed Palmares into a flowing, modern layout that uses elevation, open fairways, and ocean exposure to shape play.

The course is known for its wide corridors off the tee, firm playing surfaces, and panoramic views of the Atlantic. Its routing allows for constant visual connection to the coastline, while the wind adds a strategic layer throughout the round. Palmares is considered one of the Algarve’s most visually striking and enjoyable courses.

Al Houara Golf Club –Tangier, Morocco

Designer: Graham MarshYear Opened: 2006 (revamped in 2022)

Location: 2014

Located along Morocco’s northern Atlantic coast near Tangier, Al Houara Golf Club is a modern championship course designed by former professional golfer Graham Marsh. The layout is set on open, gently rolling land with broad fairways, coastal breezes, and a natural, links-inspired feel.

Al Houara has quickly established itself as one of Morocco’s top-ranked courses, noted for its scale, conditioning, and relaxed but strategic design. The course is playable for all levels while still offering challenge through wind, green complexes, and wellpositioned hazards. Its proximity to Tangier makes it a standout addition to a Mediterranean golf itinerary.

Finca Cortesin - Spain

Designer: Cabell B Robinson

Year Opened: 2006

Finca Cortesin is widely regarded as one of Spain’s finest modern golf courses and a benchmark for luxury golf in continental Europe. Designed by Cabell B. Robinson, the course is known for its expansive fairways, immaculate presentation, strategically placed bunkering, and beautifully contoured greens.

Set amongst rolling Andalusian hills with views toward the Mediterranean, Finca Cortesin delivers a refined championship experience that combines resort luxury with a challenging yet highly enjoyable layout.

Las Colinas Country Club –Alicante, Spain

Designer: Cabell B. Robinson

Year Opened: 2010

Las Colinas is a modern championship course set within a secluded valley south of Alicante. Designed by Cabell B. Robinson, a former associate of Robert Trent Jones Sr., the course emphasises strategic play, natural movement of the land, and environmental sensitivity.

Wide fairways encourage confident driving, while elevated greens and natural hazards demand thoughtful approaches. Las Colinas has earned recognition as one of Spain’s best modern courses and regularly appears in European top-course rankings. It offers a contemporary contrast to the more traditional layouts earlier in the itinerary.

Events

What happens if my event is cancelled?

Things happen well in advance within the travel industry and we have been known to plan for events that are more than four years away, even though flights typically aren’t in system range until 11 months in advance! This means we often have event listings for published events happening years into the future. If you’re interested in travelling to a future event, we recommend navigating to an event listing and joining the waitlist for that event.

What happens if my event is postponed?

You will automatically be transferred to the new dates and notified as soon as possible. Please consider there will be a number of customers we need to re-accommodate and this takes time. You do not need to contact us until we have sought any changes or details from you. Note that hotels and often other services need to be re-contracted for the new dates. This may result in a change of rates, however we are negotiating and will offer the best possible outcomes. Our team will be working behind the scenes to ensure the best outcome for our customers.

My event is not cancelled, but I want to cancel

Your cancellation must be provided to a Travel Expert at our office in writing (email is acceptable). Normal cancellation penalties apply as per our Booking and Travelling Terms and Conditions. We suggest you contact your travel insurance provider to make a claim if the reason for cancellation can be considered.

Can I purchase event tickets by themselves?

For most events we partner with, we are licensed to sell Official Travel Packages and do not sell event tickets individually without a complete travel package. For events where Voyages.golf is not an official reseller to a golf event but still able to sell tickets, we require a minimum of two nights’ accommodation with tickets.

I am interested in travelling to a future event, do you have a waitlist?

Things happen well in advance within the travel industry and we have been known to plan for events that are more than four years away, even though flights typically aren’t in system range until 11 months in advance!

Can you book my flights?

Absolutely, we book and ticket flights in-house. All flights incur an AU $55 booking fee. Please remember that we choose high-quality airlines with the best available rate. Please contact us regarding using frequent flyer points to book your flights.

Can I customise a listed package?

Yes, all our packages are fully customisable so you can personalise any travel package to suit your needs. Ticketed events and escorted tours are harder to customise due to the nature of organised travel programs and events, but it is our goal to provide the best travel services for your next experience & we will do our best to accommodate your needs.

My name is misspelt on a service – can I change it?

Please ensure you have all names and contact details correct at the time of booking. If a name is misspelt for some services (flights, events), name-change fees are usually charged by the service provider; we will pass this fee to you if the fault is yours.

Can I change my booking after it is confirmed?

After your booking is confirmed, changes are typically not possible. It largely depends on what changes are being made and the terms of the end supplier. Changes are assessed on a case-by-case basis.

Generally, upgrades are possible at any time (ticket upgrades, extra nights, extra travellers etc.). However, we recommend adding upgrades at the time of booking. This will ensure all travellers are seated together, best prices and availability.

What are my payment options?

We accept cheques, bank transfers and credit cards. Domestic bank transfers and cheques have no fees. International bank transfers (e.g. from an international bank to our Australian bank or from an Australian bank to our international bank) incur a nominal A$20 service fee per transaction. All card payments incur merchant fees. For Visa and MasterCard it’s 1.5% and for American Express it’s 1.98%. Payment instructions will be provided on booking.

Do you have payment plans?

For any events, we require a low deposit of 10-25% to confirm your booking, plus any upgrades or extra services. The balance for your booking is due approximately 90 days before the event begins. For leisure travel, the deposit amount depends on the destination. The balance for your leisure booking is due approximately 90 days before the event begins. If you make a booking less than 90 days before an event or date of travel, full payment is required to confirm your booking.

For some events, particularly events occurring 12 months or more into the future, we deploy one or two stage payments to make the payment process easier for you. This in turn reduces the deposit and balance payments, ensuring the burden of payment is not too high at any stage of the process. Payment plans vary between events and for different destinations.

What terms apply to my booking, specifically in relation to cancellations?

All customers who make a booking with us (Voyages.golf) agree to our Booking and Travelling Terms and Conditions, which can be found on our website or a PDF version can be sent on request at any time. These Terms and Conditions cover cancellations in detail.

We highly recommend all customers take out travel insurance to cover you in the event that the unforeseeable happens. We sell travel insurance as part of our services and have negotiated with CHI to provide Australian residents with 15% off base policies. Our Travel Experts can help select the right policy for you, or you can purchase your own policy elsewhere or use a policy from your credit card provider.

What is the difference between a package and a tour?

Travel packages are designed for independent travellers and are not escorted day-to-day by Voyages.golf team members. With a package, you will be guiding yourself, so you must ensure you have the knowledge of your destination and the how-to’s of travel to get the most out of your trip.

With a tour, it’s the opposite and you will be escorted throughout your trip by an experienced tour manager who is there to manage the group and ensure you get the most out of your experience. All our golf tours are designed for small groups. Escorted golf tours are a great option if you want to travel with like-minded golfers and to relax and enjoy the trip, knowing everything is taken care of.

Travelling

Do I need travel insurance?

Yes, we highly recommend you purchase travel insurance prior to any trip. Travel insurance is designed to cover you for unforeseen loss, damages or emergencies. We sell travel insurance as part of our services and have negotiated with CHI Insurance to provide Australian residents with 15% off base policies. Our Travel Experts can help select the right policy for you, or you can purchase your own policy elsewhere or use a policy from your credit card provider.

Do I need a visa or a visitor permit?

All travellers are responsible for ensuring they have the appropriate passport, visas, permits and certificates to enter the countries which you will be visiting. Your passport must be valid for 6 months beyond the duration of the trip. We cannot be held liable if you are refused entry, deported or are unable to use travel services due to ineligible passports or visas.

If you are unsure of your visa requirements, please check your

government’s travel department (Australians use the Smart Traveller website) for assistance. You may also refer to Visa Link website for more information.

I have a group, can you help us?

Yes. We specialise in creating custom-made packages for groups of all sizes. Whether you’re travelling as a group of friends, a corporate or an incentive group, we can make it happen. We have assisted groups of more than 300 travellers at once, proving we have the knowledge that ensures your group travel experience is unforgettable (in a good way).

I am arranging a corporate travel experience/incentive, can you help?

Yes. We specialise in creating custom-made travel experiences and are extremely experienced in handling travel for corporate groups, incentive groups and for VIP travellers. Get in touch to start your corporate travel experience today.

What is the process like?

Browse our website or complete a new enquiry and speak with a knowledgeable Voyages.golf team member to start your journey. One of our friendly team members will contact you by your preferred contact method to go through your travel requirements, provide recommendations if needed and prices based on what you need.

After making a booking, you will receive a deposit invoice and booking confirmation. Your deposit invoice contains payment instructions and your booking confirmation outlines the services you have booked. To secure your booking, you need to pay your deposit invoice. Once you’ve done that you’ll be all set.

If your experience is still a while away, you will receive email updates with more information about your trip, including important announcements such as flight and transfer times, allocated teetimes, event announcements and more.

Events: If you book a golf event with Voyages.golf, approximately 2-4 weeks before your event begins, we start sending out travel documents. Travel documents generally contain a parcel and a ‘travel document email’. Your travel document email outlines your booking and important information relating to your trip, while your parcel contains the physical items you require (if any). To be more sustainable, where possible we only send the travel documents via email, so you may not receive a parcel if your tickets and other items can be sent digitally. We will let you know if this applies after booking.

For some events, or if you live internationally and cannot receive your parcel within the available timeframe, we will make your parcel available for collection from your hotel or an official collection centre. If this is the case, you will be advised within your travel documents email, this always comes first.

Troubleshooting

I lost my event tickets, what should I do?

If you have lost your event tickets, please refer to your travel documents email to find the relevant emergency contact number of our Onsite Team, or get in touch with our office. Our team will arrange with the event organisers to print you a new ticket. For some events, there is no fee, but for many events, a small fee will apply for the re-print. Your travel documents email will outline the applicable fee. Please note that some events do not re-print tickets at all and a new ticket will need to be purchased. In this instance, please contact our office.

I missed my flight, what should I do?

If you have missed your flight and you’re at the airport, the best thing to do is to visit your airline’s service desk in the departures hall. Airline service staff will be able to arrange for you to catch the next available service or use another carrier to get you to your destination or connecting flight. We recommend you visit the service desk if you require an urgent, on-the-spot solution.

If you are not at the airport and it’s non-urgent, please get in touch with a Team Member to explore your options (please note this only applies to flights that are booked through Voyages.golf and its parent company Events Travel). If you have booked a flight yourself or through another provider, please ask that provider for assistance, as we cannot manage an external booking through our systems.

I have an issue at my hotel or accommodations, what should I do?

For hotel or other end supplier issues, the best way to resolve an issue is to speak to hotel reception staff or the on-duty manager at the accommodation. If hotel staff cannot resolve your issue, please get in touch with a Voyages.golf team member who will resolve the issue with the hotel on your behalf. If you are physically at the hotel, speaking to hotel reception staff will be the fastest way to resolve an issue.

Please note that issues are difficult to fix retroactively. If you have an issue during your stay, we encourage you to seek a resolution at the time, as requesting compensation from a hotel after your stay is generally difficult or not possible.
