Tuition Begins
ACCOMODATION
AVANI Broadbeach
ACTIVITIES INCLUDED
On-course Tuition at Emerald Lakes + Lunch

This morning, you’ll be transferred from your accommodation in Broadbeach, to start your morning with a warm up at Loic’s teaching facility at Emerald Lakes.

This morning your coach will provide 1 on 1 time with you on the range. The purpose of this mornings lesson is to provide you with a clear pathway to achieve your golf goals.

After morning tuition has included, you’ll stop for a break & lunch at Emerald Lakes Clubhouse, which overlooks the course and Metricon Stadium. Lunch will be a welcomed rest and gives you chance to reflect on the lessons of the morning and get to know your fellow students & coach better.

Following lunch, its time to continue tuition - on course. An on course lesson far outweighs the benefits of hitting balls on the range alone. It’s here, on the course, that your coach will be able to see how you control your shots around the course and offer helpful tips and strategies to greatly improve your numbers on the scorecard.

When should I book to secure my spot?
Golf Journeys tours often sell out well in advance. Book early to avoid missing out on your preferred destination and travel dates.
What makes this tour different from other golf holidays?
We combine world-class golf with cultural immersion, luxury accommodation, and a community of like-minded travelers. It’s more than golf—it’s an experience.
Who are these tours designed for?
Whether you're traveling solo, with a partner, or with friends, our tours cater to passionate golfers (and non-golfing companions) who enjoy comfort, connection, and curated experiences.
What’s included in the tour package?
Expect world-class golf, premium hotels, curated dining, transfers, and local experiences—all organized so you can relax and enjoy every moment.
Do I need to be a low-handicap golfer to join?
Not at all! Our tours welcome golfers of all levels. We focus on fun, camaraderie, and unforgettable rounds—no matter what your handicap is.
Can I come alone? Will I fit in?
Absolutely. Many guests travel solo and quickly make friends. We foster a warm, inclusive environment where everyone feels welcome.
What if my partner doesn't play golf?
No problem. Many partners join to relax, explore, and enjoy the destinations. We also offer optional non-golf activities.
What’s a typical day on tour like?
Mornings often begin with either a leisurely breakfast and activity followed by a round of golf, or mid-morning tee-off times followed by afternoons at leisure or exploring local attractions. Evenings may feature group dinners or social events.
How much golf is included?
Most tours include 2 rounds in a row followed by a leisure day in-between—perfect for sightseeing or relaxing. This balance keeps things enjoyable, but you’re always welcome to add more golf if you prefer.
Do I need any vaccinations to travel to Kenya?
Yes, a Yellow Fever Vaccination is mandatory for entry into Kenya. Your doctor must also sign your medical form to confirm this prior to travel.
Do Australian passport holders need a visa to enter Kenya?
No, Australian passport holders no longer need a traditional visa to enter Kenya. However, you must apply for an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) online prior to your trip.
Are golf carts available at golf courses in Kenya?
Most golf courses in Kenya are walking-only courses. Golf carts can be arranged but are subject to availability, so it’s best to request one in advance if required.
Is travel insurance required for the Kenya Golf & Safari Tour?
Yes, travel insurance is mandatory for this tour. Please ensure you purchase comprehensive cover and send a copy to the Golf Journeys team prior to departure.
What type of power sockets are used in Kenya?
Kenya uses Type G power sockets, which are the same as those used in the United Kingdom. The voltage in Kenya is 240V with a frequency of 50Hz. If you are travelling from Australia, your devices will typically work fine since Australia also operates on 230-240V/50Hz. However, you will need a Type G adapter to fit Kenyan outlets. Many safari lodges and hotels do provide universal outlets or USB charging ports, but it is strongly recommended to bring your own adapter to ensure you are always able to charge your devices.
Are golf carts and caddies included at the golf courses in China?
Yes, for all rounds of golf in China, both golf carts and caddies are included as part of the tour experience. This ensures you can enjoy each round comfortably with full support on the course.
Do Australian passport holders need a visa to enter China?
No, Australian passport holders do not currently require a visa to enter China for stays of up to 30 days. This applies to travel for tourism, business, visiting friends and relatives, or transit purposes. Your passport must be valid for the entire duration of your stay, and upon arrival in China, you may be asked to present proof of accommodation and evidence of onward travel.
Is a visa required to travel to China for short stays?
A visa is not currently required for most travellers entering China for stays of less than 15 days. However, Australian passport holders specifically enjoy a more generous exemption, allowing stays of up to 30 days without needing a visa.
What type of golf courses will we play at in China?
The golf courses included in the China Golf Tour are strictly private, members-only clubs. By joining this tour, you will gain exclusive access as a guest, offering a rare opportunity to play at some of the most prestigious and otherwise inaccessible golf courses in China.
Are golf carts included at the golf courses in Japan?
Yes, golf carts are included with your round at all golf courses in Japan. However, it is important to note that carts must remain on designated paths throughout the game, in line with local course regulations.
What is the 90-degree cart rule in Japan?
All golf courses in Japan follow the 90-degree cart rule. This means that while the cart must stay on the designated path most of the time, you are permitted to drive the cart onto the fairway at a 90-degree angle from the path, only for brief stops, before returning directly back to the path.
What should I know about the golf experience and dress code in Japan?
Golf in Japan is considered a full-day experience and includes certain traditions that are part of the culture. One important expectation is that gentlemen are required to wear jackets upon arrival at the golf course. This standard of dress reflects the respect and formality associated with golf in Japan.
Is there a lunch break during a round of golf in Japan?
Yes, in Japan, it is customary to stop for lunch after completing the first 9 holes. This is an integral and enjoyable part of the golfing experience, allowing players to relax, enjoy a meal, and then continue with the remaining 9 holes.
Do Australian passport holders need a visa to enter Japan?
No, Australian passport holders do not require a visa to enter Japan for short-term stays of up to 90 days for tourism purposes. Your passport must be valid for the entire duration of your stay in Japan, and upon arrival, you may be asked to show proof of onward travel and accommodation.
Do Australian passport holders need a visa to enter Indonesia?
Yes, Australian passport holders are required to obtain a Visa on Arrival (VoA) to enter Indonesia. This visa allows a stay of up to 30 days and costs IDR 500,000, which is approximately AUD 50. The VoA can be paid for at the airport upon arrival, using either cash or card. To save time at the airport, travellers also have the option to apply for an Electronic Visa on Arrival (e-VoA) online before departing for Indonesia. This online application allows you to complete payment and receive your visa approval electronically, making your entry process quicker and smoother. You can apply via the official website at https://evisa.imigrasi.go.id/. Please ensure that your passport is valid for at least six months from the date of entry into Indonesia, as this is a mandatory requirement.
Can the Indonesia Visa on Arrival be extended?
Yes, the Visa on Arrival for Indonesia is extendable once for an additional 30 days, providing flexibility if you wish to stay longer beyond your original 30-day period.
Are golf carts and caddies included at the golf courses in Indonesia?
Yes, golf carts and caddies are included for all rounds as part of the tournament experience in Indonesia. This ensures that all golfers enjoy a comfortable and well-supported round during the event.
Is a golf handicap required to participate in the Jakarta Invitational?
Yes, a valid golf handicap is required to participate in the Jakarta Invitational. The tournament committee will carry out a 12-month player history check on all participants to verify handicaps prior to the event. This ensures the integrity and fairness of the competition.
How are handicap divisions managed at the Jakarta Invitational?

You’ll need information such as your passport details, flight details, contact details in New Zealand, travel history for the past 30 days, details about what you are bringing into New Zealand, and your visa or NZeTA if required.

Do I need a visa to travel to Vietnam?

You can apply for an e-Visa online through the official Vietnamese government website at https://evisa.xuatnhapcanh.gov.vn. The e-Visa allows single entry for up to 30 days and is typically processed within 3 to 5 working days, though we recommend applying 4 to 6 weeks before departure in case of any delays. To apply, you will need a valid passport with at least six months’ validity, your flight details, a passport-style photo, and your accommodation information.

Thank you Mark and Golf Journeys for coordinating and hosting a superb week of golf on King Island. Not only did you provide the best weather and awesome golf courses to test our skills on, and to add to it the food, wine, company and behind the scenes tour with the locals was such a privilege to share and enjoy. Ian was a wealth of local knowledge as he drove us around the island and from course to course. I know my experience is already being shared with my friends via the stunning photos. It is a golf trip that should be on everyone's bucket list.

Golf Journeys go well and beyond to make sure your trip is safe, rewarding, fun and nothing is a problem for the crew who work behind the scenes as well as on the trip. Thank you again Mark for the best experience in Vietnam. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone who is wanting a holiday playing golf and non players are never left out. Their itinerary was just as fabulous.

Absolutely fantastic golf and winery tour in Tasmania. Mark could not have been a more attentive, professional and generous host. Big name wineries and some boutique ones as well to make a delightful mix ( both foods and wine) of what Tasmania has to offer. The golf courses at Barnbougle are spectacular links courses. All 3 are challenging but you’re rewarded at the 19th hole with views across the rolling greens and fairways and a feeling of great satisfaction having survived 18 holes. An excellent tour worthy of all 5 stars!
