Pros
- • Quick 12-minute transfer to the tee, arranged for you
- • Forgiving enough for mixed-ability groups
- • Altitude adds roughly 8–10% carry
Worth knowing
- • Nine holes only — most golfers play two loops
- • Big hitters may find it short off the back tees
- • Early tee times are cold before the sun burns off
Exactly as described
The tents are comfortable, the food is generous and the team remembers your name from day one. The private guide and all-inclusive dining were worth every dollar.

Great value for the experience
Sundowners on the plains and a bush breakfast we still talk about. Our guide made the trip. The private guide and all-inclusive dining were worth every dollar.
