About Golf in New Zealand

No matter your choice of course or scenic location, Golf In New Zealand can give a golfing experience you will relive over and over again.

Golf In New Zealand is a small family company specialising in customised individual and small group golfing and self-drive vacations.

Your host, Jason Best has worked in all facets of the travel industry since 1999, plays off a two handicap. Understandable then that his connections in travel and golfing circles enable Golf In New Zealand to secure the best in travel, golfing and entertainment experiences for their tour participants.

On our tours you will play some of the country’s most charming and exotic courses. While you may be distracted just a little by the inspiring scenic backdrops, the golf will be thrilling, played on an exciting mix of local and international courses.

We have tour itineraries that take in the whole of the country and others that keep you either in the North Island or the South Island. Still others focus on particular regions such as Queenstown Lakes or the Matakana Coast north of Auckland. Try a more generic tour first up and then come back for a more in depth experience on one of the regional tours.

Away from the greens you will find the Kiwi hospitality warm and welcoming. Our tours all have an adventurous and enjoyable programme for non-golfing partners that promise breath-stopping moments, convivial laughter and genuine fun-filled hours.

Golf In New Zealand would love to welcome you to play on some of the most spectacular golf courses the world has to offer. See our itineraries for a tour that suits you best.

Jason Best Profile

JasonA 14 year old kid walks into a garage sale and walks out with a $10 set of golf clubs slung across his shoulder.

Next day he is playing off a two handicap on his Omaha Beach Golf course and is ranked among the top 1% of golfers in New Zealand.

Well, maybe not quite that fast more like 25 years and a lot of hard work and practise.

Since 1999 Jason has worked across many facets of the travel industry. Experience in the airlines, hotels, sports travel and travel wholesale has groomed him to take the helm of his own travel company with the express purpose of trumpeting New Zealand golf to the world.

He showcases the essence of New Zealand through stunning golfing experiences on some of the world’s most scenic courses. He is dedicated to his tour participants, making sure they enjoy a professionally curated tour, full of laughter, memorable moments and stories to recount ever after.

Jason is not a 14 year old kid any more and his latest set of clubs cost a little more than $10. But the energy and enthusiasm that comes from playing golf and growing up in New Zealand is something that will give your Golf in New Zealand tour experience the X-factor you have always looked for.
