Kenya has 38 golf courses of which 12 are 18-hole, 10 of which are used for championship events. 6 are within a 20 mile radius of Nairobi - Kenya's bustling capital. The oldest course is Royal Nairobi Golf Club founded in 1906, the latest is the Green Park Golf Club in Naivasha. There are several new courses under construction and a number are being upgraded from 9 holes to 18 holes.

India: In India you can play golf almost anywhere, for golf is widely played by a cross-section of people in the country's often dramatic background. In the hills and high Himalayan vastness, in metropolitan cities and in small towns, by lakes and forests, or surrounded by tea estates or out in the desert. Wherever golf is played the flavour of India is visible.
You can stroll off the course to share a cup of piping hot tea at a 'dhaba', tee off from the highest 18-hole course in the world, watch a peacock dance on a green or play on a course that is enriched by monuments and beautiful buildings. In India anything is possible, and playing golf here will enable you to experience the country in a unique manner.
