Experience the world's most beautiful golf courses

A golf and cruise holiday couldn’t be more varied than this itinerary. This is about golfing experiences that couldn’t be more different in terms of culture and atmosphere. Starting on the British Isles, the journey takes you all the way down to the southernmost tip of the Iberian Peninsula. These carefully selected golfing experiences vary just as much as the local cultures. – All in all, a European golfing delight.

Wed, 12.07.2028 Dover (Great Britain) – Prince’s Golf Club 
With nine holes each on the Shore, Dunes and Himalayas courses, this 27-hole course features a classic British links design. The fairways run parallel to Sandwich Bay. In keeping with the design brief, the layout is distinctly shaped by the dune terrain. Consequently, alongside the lavishly undulating fairways, the roughs are characterised by dense growth of heather and dune grass, with sandy areas in the form of ‘wasteland’ appearing intermittently, reflecting the original dunes. 
 
Mon, 17.07.2028 Vigo (Spain) – Club de Golf Ría de Vigo  
This terraced 18-hole adventure course is situated above Vigo. The consistently wide fairways are primarily oriented towards the spacious greens, which in turn are mostly protected by massive bunkers positioned in front of them. Six artificial lakes also bring plenty of water into play. The round of golf is repeatedly rewarded with breathtaking views of the city of Vigo and the shores of the Atlantic Ocean.  
 
Thu, 20.07.2028 Lissabon (Portugal) – Oitavos Dunes Golf Club  
To the east of Lisbon, in the Portuguese highlands, lies this blend of links and parkland design. The fairways are partly lined with the striking umbrella pines typical of the area, which occasionally offer views of the Atlantic Ocean that are highly distracting. The fairways present themselves to golfers as wide, almost exclusively straight playing surfaces. In other words: everything is ready for an exciting round of golf. 
 
Fri, 21.07.2028 Portimao (Portugal) – Amendoeira Faldo Course 
The resort boasts two 18-hole courses, one designed by Nick Faldo and the other by Christy O’Connor Jr. The Faldo course features a typical American parkland design, favouring wide fairways with numerous sand, desert and water hazards leading to sweeping greens. It quickly becomes clear that one’s main focus during the round should be on navigating around these hazards. The course requires a handicap of -27 for men and -35 for women.

General information

• In order to guarantee a comfortable flow of play for all golfers, we have determined a basic speed, which is sufficient for a playing time of 4.5 to 5 hours on foot (covering 18 holes with a trolley).
• Due to tournaments, renovations, etc. at the various golf clubs, our Golf & Cruise programme is subject to change at short notice.
• Golf & Cruise voyages allow all players with a handicap of 36 or less to play on courses all over the world. 
• Additional courses can only be booked in conjunction with the basic package.
• The reservation of e-carts cannot always be guaranteed due to local availability and weather conditions. You may, therefore, have to play and walk just with trolleys - possibly even on hilly courses. Please consider this when planning/booking your Golf & Cruise package. 
• Halfway refreshments are always ordered via the respective golf club; we have no influence on the quality of the snacks. We kindly ask for your understanding.
• When booking a Golf & Cruise package and flights through Hapag-Lloyd, we will register your golf equipment directly with the airlines – when possible and required. The current baggage regulations of the relevant airline apply. In your travel documents, which you will receive about four weeks prior to departure, you will find relevant information about this. Excess baggage fees for golf equipment are normally to be paid at check-in.
