Who we are

Three brands of our own

We contract golf travel directly: more than 3,000 courses, resorts and hotels across eight regions. Then we sell it through three brands of our own, Golf Travel Centre, GolfTours.com and Chaka Travel. Each is built for a different kind of golfer. All three share one supply network, one team and the same consumer protections.

And everybody else's

The product behind other businesses too

The same product and technology sit behind hundreds of businesses that sell golf travel under their own names: travel agents, golf professionals, clubs, resorts and creators. Portals, live rates and ready-made marketing mean a business with no golf expertise can sell a golf trip properly, and its client stays its own.
