It’s Not Always About Golf

Vanity Fairways have been offering their clients a range of overseas golfing holidays since 2013. Destinations famous for golf like Vietnam, South Africa, New Zealand, Spain & Portugal, Western Australia and Tasmania to name just a few. The network of travellers that are drawn to escorted travel with the desire to travel with friends and “like minded” people is increasing. Vanity Fairways’ Deborah Marsland with her travel background has been able to utilise many years of travel experience and contacts to put together not only golf tours but more recently a non-golf trip incorporating a luxury cruise. Cruising has grown in popularity and is a great way to see a variety of destinations, whilst having the added benefit of basically unpacking once and enjoying every facet of shipboard life, the food, the wine, the entertainment and joining in or doing your own thing! Last year Vanity Fairways in conjunction with Helloworld Travel at Eatons Hill in Brisbane offered a limited number of cabins on what turned out to be one of the best cruises anyone had ever done. We flew to New York and had a few days to enjoy all the sights and then we embarked on Crystal Symphony for a cruise through the Caribbean finishing in Fort Lauderdale for a few nights before flying home via Los Angeles. An added bonus on the ship was that they held golf clinics so everyone could “hone” their golf skills and not suffer from withdrawal symptoms not playing golf for two weeks!

Here’s what a couple of our travellers had to say: “What an exciting moment it was leaving New York harbour on a luxury ship like the Crystal Symphony, the crew/staff were excellent as was the whole trip cruising the Caribbean and back to the Florida Coast. What we liked was there were never any crowds, plenty of places to sit and relax. The entertainment on board was varied and enjoyable, the food and wine delicious. The Crystal experience was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end and we can't wait to sail again on another Crystal cruise.” - Bron & Des After being totally spoilt by Crystal Cruises in October 2018 and after all the fantastic feedback we received, we managed to get a great deal for another Crystal Symphony cruise for 2020. Though once again we have limited numbers. This is officially a non-golf trip, although we’d be pleased to arrange golf in Hong Kong or Singapore pre or post the cruise. You could even add in any other Asian destination pre or post the cruise…our Travel Agent Extraordinaire, Laurice Burke can help. It’s not too late to join us in April but you will need to let us know sooner rather than later! FIJI IN SEPTEMBER 2020: (this one is a golf tour!) Soon to be released with limited numbers, playing and staying at Natandola and other popular Fijian courses. So if you’d like to know more about this tour or any other information at all please call Deborah at Vanity Fairways 0418754717 or email: deborah@vanityfairways.com.au or lauriceburke1971@gmail.com
