Some trips are simply bigger than others. For golfers with the time and appetite for a true bucket-list journey, combining Australia and New Zealand delivers one of the most extraordinary golf adventures in the world. Just a short flight apart, these two countries offer completely different landscapes, cultures, and golfing icons—yet together, they form a seamless circuit of world-class play.

The journey often begins in Sydney, where rounds at New South Wales Golf Club and The Australian Golf Club introduce golfers to dramatic seaside cliffs and Australia’s championship heritage. Add in a private harbor cruise or a day at Bondi, and the city’s lifestyle is as memorable as the golf.

From there, it’s on to Melbourne’s Sandbelt, revered globally for its timeless course architecture. Playing Royal Melbourne and Kingston Heath feels like stepping into golf’s history books, while the city itself offers art, dining, and wine tasting in the nearby Yarra Valley.

Then, a quick hop across the Tasman Sea brings you to New Zealand, where the scenery grows even more dramatic. In Queenstown, courses like Jack’s Point and Millbrook Resort are framed by snowcapped peaks and shimmering lakes. Here, golf is only half the story—heli-adventures over Milford Sound and adrenaline-fueled jet boating remind you that Queenstown is the adventure capital of the world.

Finally, on New Zealand’s North Island, you’ll discover a modern chapter of golf excellence. Te Arai Links North & South set new global standards for seaside design, while Kinloch, Wairakei, and the breathtaking Cape Kidnappers prove why New Zealand now ranks among the most coveted golf destinations worldwide.

This Trans-Tasman circuit isn’t just about ticking boxes—it’s about savoring the diversity of two countries that together create one unforgettable story. From cliff-top links to mountain fairways, from vineyard lunches to helicopter rides, this is a golf trip that transcends the game itself.
