Playing overseas?

If you’re playing away, you can include additional cover to protect your clubs, golf balls, shoes, and even green fees!

Make sure to check in advance if there are any specific requirements for the country to which you’re travelling too, such as a Visa or ESTA.

Take a look at the Foreign Office’s official travel advice for your destination.

Remember to add on golf cover to your holiday booking if you’re taking your clubs with you, you may also need to check these in.

These things may need to be done in advance, so make sure to give yourself plenty of time to look into this!

  • Transport to and from your hotel to the golf courses
