New Zealand Golf Tour 2011
Final Golf Tour with WAGA in 2011
Lake Taupo, North Island
October 30 to November 3, 2011
The World Airline Golfing Alliance invites golfers and their partners to their Lake Taupo, North Island New Zealand Golf tour in October -November 2011.
There are flights to Auckland and then commuter flights to Lk Taupo. Flights operate from Sydney to Rotorua twice a week and it is a 1hr drive.
Or you can hire a vehicle in Auckland, about a 3.5hr drive to Taupo
New Zealand is famous for beautiful scenery, peaceful way of life, great sporting venues, history and wine. WAGA have been fortunate to have played golf in both the South and North Islands.
In 2011, WAGA will visit Lake Taupo in the thermal belt of the country. Renowned for fishing, food and scenery, it also hosts some fantastic golf courses.
So plan your holiday, book those airfares and join WAGA for a week of fun and frivolity in Lake Taupo.
This is an amateur golf tournament and is the last one for 2011!
Open to all players with club handicaps, players from around the world will combine to play on three wonderful courses. All play will be conducted in buggies and play will cover all grades of golfers.
Non-golfing friends and partners are not forgotten and activities include a journey on Lake Taupo, visits to waterfalls and for all, a view of the unique race in Australia, the 151st running of The Melbourne Cup.
In October 2011, the World Cup of Rugby Union will be hosted in New Zealand.
This event which attracts football enthusiasts from around the world will precede the WAGA Lake Taupo golf tournament.
October/November is a fine time of year to visit New Zealand with a moderate climate, clean air and wonderful sights.
The area is blessed with world class natural assets, New Zealand’s largest freshwater lake, a back-drop of snow capped mountains, a listed Heritage park and for those with a sporting bent, fishing, golfing, horse riding, boating and numerous associated sporting adventures.

2011 Golfing holidays
Well Vietnam is done and dusted for WAGA. It was a good trip, Furama Hotel wonderful and the Montgomerie Links course a great challenge. Congratulations to our winners, Fred and Robbie. Photographs of this event can be found under Photos and then go to last album, “Scenes from Vietnam”.
It looks like WAGA will have over 20% of the group attending the Buenos Aires event in February/March. Bordeaux is still fielding a steady number of bookings but we do have space. Sun City has exceeded all expectations and WAGA found that requests exceeded bookings by 25%. Sun City and the Cabanas were able to accept our new bookings and have accommodated all new applications. To be safe, WAGA have accepted some more rooms so if you have friends/fellow golfers who were thinking about the trip, please tell them that WAGA can accept new bookings.
Cairns – staying at the Novotel Palm Beach and playing Paradise Palms and Sea Temple – first fortnight of September.
Lake Taupo – Arriving Sunday 30th after the World Rugby Cup, golfing Kinloch, Wairakei and Centennial. Accommodation is the 5 star Hilton Hotel overlooking Lk. Taupo. Your departure date from the WAGA event is 3rd November. The great race, Melbourne Cup, will be celebrated on 1/11/11 with drinks and nibbles.

Enjoy your golf.
