Golf added to a journey is quoted at the course's current published rates. Rounds are never quietly absorbed into an existing package — you will always see golf identified as its own line in your proposal.

Some of New Zealand's finest courses are private clubs. Where access is by member introduction we say so plainly, and we never sell access we cannot secure.

We only publish authentic photography of a real course where we hold the rights to do so. Where we don't, you'll see our own illustrated plate instead — never an unrelated or generated photograph standing in for a real golf course.

Our golf editorial is independent. We hold no commercial arrangement, commission agreement or discount with any golf course, resort or golf-tour supplier at this time, and we do not claim one. If that ever changes, any paid placement will be clearly labelled and editorial rankings will stay independent of it.
