Creator's Key Takeaways

golfing on cruises presents a lot of challenges I guess the number one challenge that we have is the clubs

the other one uh the other major golf program we have and this is by far I think the best and it's it's azamar cruise line

I highly recommend Perry Goff uh conjunction with Azamara and that's the way to go

you can do it uh in excursions in the Caribbean and uh limited spaces places in Europe but if you're really serious about it do it with Alma waterways Azamara cruise lines in Perry Goff

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Look for golf excursions on normal large market cruises, but use the ship's excursion rather than independent ones.
βœ“Consider rental clubs for excursions in the Caribbean or Alaska.
