Exploring South Africa with Swiss Hickory Golf

An unforgettable travel experience awaits: world-class golf courses, over 40 handpicked South African wines, exceptional cuisine – all aboard the legendary luxury train, Rovos Rail. After the highly successful premiere in 2025, the GRAND GOLF TOUR OF SOUTH AFRICA will return in 2027 for one final edition.

What Awaits You

14 days of indulgence, golf and pure South African charm – from Pretoria to Cape Town, accompanied by a small group of like-minded guests from Switzerland. The journey takes place from 9 to 22 February 2027 aboard a privately chartered Rovos Rail train, exclusively dedicated to this tour.

Luxury on Rails

A journey aboard Rovos Rail is travel elevated to an art form: two elegant dining cars, a stylish observation lounge, and lovingly restored suites set the tone for comfort and atmosphere.

Each day, you’ll enjoy carefully composed multi-course meals, accompanied by a curated selection of over 40 top South African wines – served not only on board, but also on the golf courses and during selected excursions. Culinary indulgence is guaranteed – and it’s all included.

Golf at Iconic Courses

You’ll play on some of South Africa’s most spectacular golf courses:

  • Leopard Creek – overlooking the Kruger National Park, with wildlife often just metres from the fairway

  • Fancourt Links – a multi-award-winning course, seamlessly integrated into the surrounding landscape

  • Additional handpicked courses along the route add variety, challenge and unforgettable scenery

Beyond golf and fine wine, the tour offers truly memorable nature experiences:
Guided safaris, inspiring excursions and atmospheric evenings in the observation car make every stage of the journey special. And while the views outside may change, one thing stays the same: the relaxed and welcoming atmosphere on board.
