OVERVIEW
Kiwis love golf. With over 400 courses across the country, New Zealand ranks second only to Scotland for courses per capita.
Most international visitors know the headline acts—Tara Iti, Te Arai, Kinloch, Wairakei, Kauri Cliffs, Cape Kidnappers, Millbrook, and Jacks Point. All amazing and rightly on the 'must-play' lists.
But the real soul of New Zealand golf lives in the local member clubs. These are community-owned, volunteer-driven courses that are deeply woven into the fabric of their towns. They’re welcoming, full of character, and proud of their history.
Many are hidden gems—beautifully laid out, lovingly maintained, and home to passionate members. At Vivid, we believe these courses are just as worth visiting as the big names.
You won’t find manicured perfection at every stop—but you will find something real. A warm welcome, a unique story, and a round of golf you’ll remember for all the right reasons.
We take the time to understand what matters to you, and together we’ll craft a New Zealand golf holiday that’s personal, seamless, and unforgettable.
