Golf Package Tour: Intramuros /Fort Golf Tour |
|
Intramuros, or the “Walled City,” is located in the heart of Manila. It has been declared as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is one of the best preserved medieval cities in the world. Apart from its cultural and historical attractions, Intramuros also offers another leisure option for travelers who want to unwind for a few hours – golf. One thing that makes Philippine golfing unique from the standard experiences abroad is that all the courses have caddies. The caddies pull the clubs, they help with club selection as they eventually figure out how long a hitter a player is, and best of all they give advice on the play. They know how far certain hazards are that you want to avoid and where you should try to hit the ball. Jeepney Tours will treat you to a rolling tour of some of Manila’s best attractions before proceeding to Club Intramuros where you will spend a morning of leisurely golf. Running tour of: • SM Mall of Asia • Rizal Park • Cultural Center of the Philippines • Manila Yacht Club
Club Intramuros, Manila The Club Intramuros course is quite short (par 66, with a length of 4,326 yards), but there are plenty of challenges as almost every hole includes either water hazards, out-of-bounds, or both. Established in 1907, the club is located in the heart of Manila and can be played in just over two hours, which makes it ideal for business people looking for a quick round of golf.
