Mark chats about the Magic of the Majors 🏌💫
📰 Read the blog here: www.africagolfsafari.com/magic-of-the-majors/

In golf, there are wins, and then there are Majors - events that elevate players from champions to legends and each year draw thousands of golf enthusiasts to the different courses. The Open Championship, the Masters, the PGA Championship, and the US Open are more than just another four tournaments. They are the heartbeats of the sport, each with its own history and trials that forge the game’s greatest names.

"⛳🤞This year's Open will be played at Portrush, Northern Ireland, and Mark our CEO lives in Belfast and already has his ticket safely tucked away! He can't wait to get up there and hopefully cheer another local winner on like the last time when Shane Lowry won the event at Portrush. ⛳🤞"

THE DIVERSITY OF GOLFING IN AFRICA 🏝🌿🦒

Golfing in Africa offers such diversity, which is why a combination golf tour to Southern Africa, paired with a tropical island escape, is so appealing. One day, you're dodging wildlife on the green; the next, you're marvelling at the towering mountains guarding the fairways in the Cape Winelands; and then, you're playing on a course surrounded by sparkling blue waters. Truly, the contrasting scenes on this incredible continent are unmatched!

In our latest blog post, we chat about the THRILL of playing De Zalze's challenging signature 13th hole, where you'll find yourself walking on water! Let's face it, when it comes to golf it's always better to be on the water than in the water. This 18-hole, par-72 course is a favourite among golf enthusiasts and is a MUST PLAY course in Cape Town.

Golf and safaris = The perfect match! 🦁⛳️

For golf enthusiasts who are also avid wildlife fans, we recommend golfing in the Kruger and pairing it with a safari. The Kruger's courses are frequently visited by wildlife, adding an exciting twist to the game. One of the safari lodges included in our itineraries is the luxurious and charming 5-star Buhala Lodge, located on the southern banks of the Crocodile River. It is just a 10-minute drive from the renowned Leopard Creek Country Club.
