Australian golf travel company, Go Golfing was, for the sixth time, awarded Oceania's Best Golf Tour Operator at the prestigious World Golf Awards ceremony held recently in Portugal.

At Go Golfing, our motto is ‘bringing golfers and partners together for the best time of their lives’ - and, simply, we love what we do.
