The Roan Club is not a corporate machine; it is owned and operated by three passionate individuals with decades of combined experience in both professionally managed golf tours and luxury African safaris. When you tour with us, you are a member, not a customer. With limited tours available every year, we ensure, your exclusive membership, is valued.

We do not believe in "brochure browsing." Every location the Roan Club journeys, are places we wanted to play and stay. They are our choices and we are happy to put our name to the quality of their product and its delivery. Each venue has been personally vetted, tried, and tested by us. We have played every hole on every golf course on the itinerary (with mixed success, admittedly). We have visited every hotel and lodge, personally tasted the food and have over-indulged in the wines to ensure only the absolute best make the final cut for your journey.
-
Our philosophy is built on the belief that a premium tour requires intimacy. We specialize in small, exclusive tours where camaraderie, friendship, and a tailored service define the experience. This ensures that you aren't just one of many; you are an essential part of an elite membership sharing a memorable adventure.

The Roan Club designs, curates, and runs premier Golf Tours first and foremost. However, it just so happens that South Africa offers a "nineteenth hole" experience unlike anywhere else in the world. Between rounds, you will enjoy superb culinary experiences, renowned vineyards, ‘Big Five’ safaris, and the wonderful, untamed wilderness of the continent.

We ensure nothing is left to chance. Every detail of your journey—from airport transfers to tee times—has been meticulously thought through and catered for.
