With the Western Cape’s exceptional scenery even today’s 5-hour drive to George will be a pleasure.  We highly recommend taking the scenic coastal route (Clarence Drive) for the first leg of your trip as it straddles mountains, cliffs and the ocean, with views of the Cape fynbos. If you would prefer flying to George from Cape Town then that’s absolutely fine too. We can arrange. Its’ a quick 40-minute flight

Hermanus, SA’s most famous whale-watching town, makes an excellent stop for lunch before taking the national highway to George, where you’ll check into the famous Fancourt Hotel.

The hotel and golf course lie at the base of the towering Outeniqua Mountains, and are characterised by modern luxury, classic elegance and great diversity in golf courses.

Here you will play the Outeniqua, ranked 17th in South Africa by the Golf Digest experts, a leisurely and fun golfing experience. It provides a more forgiving terrain than its counterpart, the Montagu, but offers its fair share of challenges to keep golfers interested.

Fancourt’s Montagu golf course, originally designed by Gary Player, has earned an international reputation as one of the finest 18-hole parkland layouts. It holds the prestigious 8^th position on Golf Digest South Africa’s list of top golf courses in the country. Enjoy your round, whilst taking in the scenery.

South Africa’s number 1 rated course, The Links, is Exclusive and private. The Links has hosted some of the most prestigious tournaments in the world, including the Presidents Cup (2003), the SA Open (2005) and the 2012 Volvo Golf Champions European Tour. If you looking to play this championship course just let us know and we can make it happen at an additional cost

Recommendations: Fancourt has four excellent on-site restaurants if you don’t feel like venturing out but the little hamlet of Wilderness is a 15-minute drive away – worth it for views of the Indian Ocean and dramatic gorges and a meal at a local eatery.

You could also have a well-deserved wind-down at the hotel’s spa after two days of fantastic golf.

For the next three nights you’ll be based at the Queen Victoria Hotel, a refined boutique property at the V&A Waterfront. With its elegant interiors, attentive service, and views of Table Mountain and the harbour, it offers a luxurious base right in the heart of Cape Town. From here you can easily explore the city’s highlights, from the bustling waterfront to nearby beaches and cultural landmarks.

Your golf will be playing at Steenberg Golf Club, located on South Africa’s oldest registered farm in Constantia. This championship course is set against a backdrop of vineyards and mountains, with immaculate fairways and water features that provide both beauty and challenge. It’s a favourite among Cape Town golfers for its mix of strategic holes and tranquil setting, making each round memorable.

Between golf days, Cape Town offers endless opportunities. You might take the cable car up Table Mountain, explore the Cape Peninsula to Cape Point and Boulders Beach, or wander the historic streets of the city centre. The Constantia Valley nearby is home to some of South Africa’s oldest wine estates, perfect for tastings and leisurely lunches.

For dining, Cape Town is renowned for its culinary scene. Options include La Colombe in Constantia for fine dining, The Test Kitchen for inventive cuisine, and Harbour House at the Waterfront for fresh seafood with sweeping views. Alternatively, you can simply relax at the Queen Victoria’s pool terrace with a glass of local wine after a satisfying day on the greens.
