Queenstown and Otago

The southern-most part of New Zealand has crafted a reputation for itself as a premium tourist destination. Depending on the time of year visited this center of adventure, jet-boating, rafting and skiing can present both opportunity and frustration for the international golfer. 

World-class vineyards dot the landscape and accommodations range from the super-luxury to quaint B&Bs. 

Golfers will not be at a loss for great places to swing a club, with the question being how to utilize their limited time most efficiently!
