Global Golf Course Guide for Travelling Golfers
Founded in 2006, Where2Golf is an independent global golf course guide dedicated to helping golfers discover the best golf courses around the world. The site provides detailed coverage of 5,000 leading golf courses across 65 countries, making it a trusted reference for golfers planning golf travel, golf holidays, and international golf trips.
A Trusted Source for the World’s Best Golf Courses
Where2Golf focuses on identifying and reviewing the best golf courses in each destination, highlighting layouts known for outstanding design, scenic setting, and playability. Our editorial approach prioritises courses that deliver memorable golfing experiences, whether they are championship venues, renowned resort courses, or highly regarded local favourites.
More than 1,500 of the courses featured have been personally played, with a further 1,000 reviewed through full 18-hole inspection tours. This first-hand experience underpins our golf course ratings and ensures reliable recommendations for golfers seeking the best courses to play.
Independent Golf Course Rankings and Reviews
Where2Golf is a curated golf course directory rather than an exhaustive list of every course worldwide. This selective approach allows us to maintain a consistent editorial standard and focus on courses most relevant to travelling golfers.
In recognition of our experience and course knowledge, Where2Golf contributes as a panel member to the Golf World course rankings (GB&I and Continental Europe) under the auspices of Today’s Golfer.
Our interactive Search by Maps feature allows users to browse golf courses by location, making it easy to find top-rated courses and Stay & Play resorts in specific regions, countries, or golf destinations.
Beyond course reviews
Where2Golf serves as a broader golf reference resource, including:
- Major golf championships dating back to 1860
- Leading professional tours and international team events
- A Who’s Who of notable figures in golf
- A detailed golf terminology dictionary
- Detailed accommodation guidance, including on-site Stay & Play options and nearby hotels for each destination.
We intentionally do not cover equipment or instruction, allowing us to remain focused exclusively on golf courses, destinations, and travel planning.

Sony Open in Hawaii: played at Waialae Country Club near Honolulu, the Sony Open takes over the spotlight from The Sentry as the PGA Tour’s calendar-year opening event (Jan 15-18). The Sentry (not being played in 2026) was formerly known as the Tournament of Champions, with a field typically restricted to golfers who won a PGA Tour event in the previous calendar year.
Dubai Desert Classic: the DP World Tour’s first Rolex Series event of 2026, is contested for the 37th time (Jan 22-25). First won by Englishman Mark James in 1989, it now boasts a four-time winner, Rory McIlroy. Played on the Emirates Golf Club’s Majlis course, this once desert-surrounded course is the long-time flagship for Golf in Dubai.
Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
The Dutch: "It's no' just a game", as they say in Scotland, and that's certainly true at The Dutch. With 5-star services throughout, a lavishly comfortable Loch Lomond-inspired clubhouse, and a superbly designed and presented golf course, one could not ask for more from this top-end private club.
Join us at The Dutch from August 21–24 for the Festival of Golf, featuring the HotelPlanner Tour. Experience four days of top-tier sport, live music, incredible food, and unexpected surprises. Explore the grounds, connect with others, embrace new challenges, and dive into an unforgettable celebration. Click here to buy tickets.
Here at Prince’s Golf Club you'll find 27 excellent holes of links golf. Just over the fence and sharing similar terrain is Royal St George’s; but Prince’s is far from overshadowed by its venerable neighbour. The three nine-hole loops at Prince's, laid out over gently undulating terrain, are sure to bring a smile of satisfaction to all lovers of links golf.
Stay&Play at Prince's: excellent onsite Lodge accommodation available
