Cape Kidnappers Pairs Golf Tournament
                      plus Hawkes Bay Golf Tour
              13 to 20 November 2022 (8 days - 7 nights)
                 Detailed Itinerary & Golf Programme
       Tour Cost From AUD 10,400/Couple (AUD 5,200 pp Twin Share)
You are invited to join Trendsetter Travel’s NZ golf tour which culminates in attendance at the 54 hole
Trendsetter Travel Golf Tournament, to be held at Cape Kidnappers. Your tour hosts are David Cooper and
Adrienne Witteman. Apart from playing 3 rounds at Cape Kidnappers, consistently rated in the world’s top
50 courses, you will stay 3 nights at Cape Kidnappers, 4 nights in Napier, get to enjoy 2 games on local
Hawkes Bay courses and attend a day’s wine tasting including lunch at one of Hawkes Bay’s leading
wineries.

Cape Kidnappers is one of the most luxurious golf resorts in the world. Participating in this event is, by
some margin, the best value proposition when staying and playing at Cape Kidnappers. This is particularly
true as we are playing during the summer when our previous visits have all been in early spring. Your 4
nights in Napier is at one of the best hotels in Napier, the 17 room boutique County Hotel with 5 suite room
upgrade options.

Tour transportation will be by coach.

Golf carts will be available for all 5 golf rounds (although for the 2 Hawkes Bay rounds, we have booked all
10 motorised carts which is insufficient for all our tour party) and are included in the tour cost. Carts will be
available for those that are unable to play without a cart. Pull buggies will be available for those that walk.

We look to avoid being rushed at golf – intending to arrive between 45 minutes and 60 minutes before 1st
tee off (we will have 2 tee or multiple tee starts booked at all courses – which should see all our party
complete their respective rounds within 30 minutes of one another) and have time for a refreshing drink
(complimentary other than at Cape Kidnappers) in the club rooms post golf. We will run competitions at all
the courses we play. Strict rules of golf will apply other than the “Penalty Area Rule” for lost balls in the
interests of speeding up play. We are staying in early summer when there is the prospect of good weather.
However this is NZ and there is no guarantee of brilliant weather regardless of the time of the year.

                                                  ITINERARY

Sunday 13 November 2022
Fly to Napier and stay 4 nights at the County Hotel, located down town in Napier. We have chosen this
hotel due to it being one of the 2 best hotels in Napier and an easy walk to many of the leading Napier
restaurants. There should be flights (all connecting through either Wellington or Auckland) arriving late
evening from Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. Trendsetter will provide coach transfers to the County
Hotel to meet the early evening Auckland to Napier flight (due to arrive at 5.35 pm – coach pick up time will
alter if flight scheduling changes). Should you choose to arrive on an alternative flight, you will need to
make your own way to our hotel at your own cost (it is only a short 10 minute taxi ride). The cost of the
international flight to and from Napier is NOT included. Pre-dinner drinks and dinner will commence from
7.30 pm. Dinner will be inclusive of standard beers, wine and soft drinks.

Lead in rooms at County Hotel all include either a King or Queen Bed with shower. Upgraded room options
include:

       Spa Suite (3) – larger room with Super King Bed, Spa Bath and separate shower (extra AUD 400 for
        4 nights)
       Honeymoon Suite (1) – even larger room with Super King Bed, Spa Tub and separate shower (extra
        AUD 600 for 4 nights)
       Vice Regal Suite (1) – largest Suite including ornate finishes, separate lounge, spa bath and separate
        shower (extra AUD 800 for 4 nights)

Monday 14 November 2022
Following breakfast, we depart by coach at 10.15 am for a short 10 minute coach transfer to play Napier
Golf Club where we have a two tee start from 11.30 am. Napier Golf Club is one of the oldest golf clubs in
New Zealand and held the inaugural New Zealand Open.

Independent dining this evening.

Tuesday 15 November 2022
Following breakfast, we depart at 8.30 am for 10 minute drive to play Maraenui Golf Club where we have a
2 tee start booked from 11.00 am.

Wednesday 16 November 2022
We have a non-golf day. After a leisurely breakfast and perhaps a walk around historic Napier with its
many famous Art Deco buildings (Napier was totally destroyed after the famous 1931 earthquake and was
rebuilt with many of the original buildings constructed in the then fashionable Art Deco style), we will
depart by coach at 11.15 am for a 15 minute drive to Mission Estate, one of Hawkes Bay’s leading wineries.
But more importantly, Mission Estate is renowned for its winery lunches at its famous Convent homestead.
We have a private pre-lunch drinks and wine tasting from 12 noon with a two course lunch from 1 pm.
Wine tasting, pre-lunch drinks, lunch and standard wines/beers/soft drinks are included as part of your tour
cost. We expect to depart around 3.30 pm.

Independent dining this evening

Thursday 17 November 2022
In order to maximise our time at Cape Kidnappers, our coach will leave early at 7.45 am for the
approximate 45 minute drive to Cape Kidnappers, where we have a shot gun tee start at 9.30 am. After
golf, check into your luxurious rooms at
The Farm at Cape Kidnappers. Since
December 2019, Cape Kidnappers and
Kauri Cliffs announced a change in policy
whereby lunch (but not drinks) is
included in the room rate – previously
lunches needed to be purchased on your
private account other than lunch on the
Saturday following completion of the
tournament. Our tour price includes the
4 day/3 night Cape Kidnappers stay
comprising 3 x tournament rounds, from
6.00 pm a cocktail hour (plus) followed
by dinner on all 3 nights, breakfast all 3
mornings, lunches on all days and a
complimentary mini bar in your luxury
room (traditionally includes local beers, local wines, soft drinks and home-made cookies). However, you
will need to pay for drinks in the golf club rooms and wines over dinner each night – we expect to organise
a private selection at a substantial discount to carded prices.

                                                     3
As you will be a Virtuoso booking, you will also be entitled to a USD 100 credit (used anywhere at the resort
– this is no longer limited to purchases at the Spa) and a room upgrade subject to availability. Our bookings
will be in the Hill Top Suites (46.5 sqm) and upgrades would be to the deluxe Ridge Suites (63 sqm) and
Lodge Suites (65 sqm). Irrespective, all suites are large and luxurious. Traditionally, around half of our
rooms are accorded complimentary upgrades.

Friday 18 November 2022
After a relaxing breakfast, there is a
circa 9 am two tee start for the 2nd
round of the Tournament (exact times
will be advised the previous evening).
You should have a few hours free time
between the conclusion of your round
and drinks from 6.00 pm

Saturday 19 November 2022
Today is the 3rd round of the
Tournament, after which there will be a
buffet lunch and prize giving. Unlike our previous visit, we will stay the Saturday night at Cape Kidnappers
which will allow a few hours free time at the resort post lunch and before pre-dinner drinks.

Sunday 20 November 2022
Our tour concludes post breakfast and we have organised a coach transfer at approximately 10.30 am (for a
10.45 am departure) for the 45 to 60 minutes transfer to Napier Airport to catch the various flights from
12.50 pm which will connect back to Australia via either Auckland or Wellington. . Complimentary
transfers will NOT be provided if you choose to leave at a different time.
