About Zora Golf Travel: Golfer-Founded Guided Golf in Jakarta
Zora Golf Travel is a guided golf tour company founded in Jakarta in 2024 by golfers, for golfers visiting Jakarta, Bogor and Bandung. A personal guide meets every client at the airport and stays with them each day until departure.
The business is run by a three-person team: Laura, Founder and CEO, her partner as Golf Advisor, and a Head Guide. Between them, the two founders have played 250+ rounds across Indonesia, Australia, Thailand and the Philippines, and Zora is rated 5.0 stars from 10+ Google reviews. Every trip is planned around the client's flights. The 4D3N Jakarta and Bogor golf packages have fixed prices from IDR 5,700,000 (about US$315) per golfer, and every other trip is quoted on application (POA).
Who Zora Golf Travel Is
Zora is a small, Jakarta-based operator that designs and guides golf trips within West Java and the capital region. Each itinerary is built for one client or group, around their own dates and flights.
What Zora Does
- Designs custom golf itineraries across Jakarta, Bogor and Bandung
- Books tee times for every round on the itinerary
- Arranges hotel accommodation and all daily transport
- Provides a personal guide from airport arrival to airport farewell
- Quotes the whole trip in one written price, per golfer
Why It Was Founded
Zora's stated aim is to share a love of Indonesian golf with visiting players through trips led by people who have played the same fairways. That idea shapes the business model: the people who plan the trip are golfers, and one of them is with you on every day of it.
The Zora Team
Three people plan and run every Zora trip. Each has a defined role, from itinerary design to the day-to-day guiding.
Team Roles and Experience
| Person | Role | Golf Experience | What They Do on Your Trip |
|---|---|---|---|
| Laura | Founder and CEO | 50+ rounds across Indonesia and Australia | Designs every custom itinerary and prepares the quote |
| Laura's partner | Golf Advisor | 200+ rounds at social and competitive level across Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines and Australia | Advises on course choice and the order of rounds |
| Head Guide | Personal guide | Knows the caddies, greens and clubhouses on Zora itineraries | Meets you on arrival and stays with you every day until your farewell at departure |
Laura, Founder and CEO
Laura is an active golfer with 50+ rounds across Indonesia and Australia. She designs each itinerary herself, matching courses, hotel areas and transfer times to the client's dates and playing level.
The Golf Advisor
Laura's partner has played 200+ rounds at social and competitive level in four countries. That range of courses informs which Jakarta, Bogor and Bandung layouts suit a given group.
The Head Guide
The Head Guide is the person clients see most. The guide meets you at the airport, travels with you to each course and handles the day's logistics until you fly home.
250+ Combined Rounds Behind Every Itinerary
The founding team's 250+ combined rounds are the core of Zora's experience. They span social and competitive golf across Indonesia, Australia, Thailand and the Philippines.
Zora builds itineraries from courses the founding team has played, rather than from brochure descriptions. That first-hand knowledge covers the practical details, such as which courses suit an arrival day and how long transfers really take.
What That Experience Changes
- Realistic schedules that leave rest time in Jakarta's heat
- Course pairings that suit the group's handicaps
- Transfer plans that avoid the slowest weekend traffic
- Clear advice on club rules, caddies and booking windows
One booking
Tee times, buggies, your hotel and every transfer in one booking. Green fees are quoted separately, by course.

Where Zora Golf Travel Operates
Zora works in three areas of West Java and the capital region. Each has its own course guide on this site.
Service Areas
| Area | Character | Getting There From Jakarta |
|---|---|---|
| Jakarta | Championship and tournament courses within the city and its edges | Daily private transport from your hotel |
| Bogor | Hill courses south of the capital | About 60–90 minutes off-peak on the Jagorawi toll road [1][2] |
| Bandung | Cooler highland courses at about 700–770 m | Whoosh high-speed train, about 35–47 minutes Halim to Tegalluar [3][4] |
Course Guides by Area
The guide to golf courses in Jakarta covers the capital's visitor courses. The golf in Bogor and golf in Bandung guides cover the two regions outside the city.
From arrival to departure
A personal Zora guide meets you at the airport and stays with you every day of the trip.
Plan My TripTee-Time Access and Booking Through Official Channels
Zora holds authorised tee-time booking access at three clubs: Royale Jakarta Golf Club, Damai Indah Golf (both the PIK and BSD courses) and Jagorawi Golf & Country Club. At every other course, Zora books visitor tee times through the club's standard visitor arrangements. At any club, a tee time is confirmed only when the club accepts the booking for your date and group.
Royale Jakarta's official site carries a scam alert telling golfers to book only through official channels [5]. Zora books Royale tee times through its authorised access, so there is no third-party booking site involved.
Reviews and Pricing
Zora is rated 5.0 stars from 10+ Google reviews. Two packages have published prices, from IDR 5,700,000 (about US$315) per golfer. Every other trip, round and rental is priced on application (POA), because courses, dates, hotels and group size all set the cost.

Where does Zora Golf Travel run golf trips?

Jakarta trips use courses in and around the capital, Bogor is reached by the Jagorawi toll road in about 60 to 90 minutes off-peak, and Bandung is reached by the Whoosh high-speed train or the Cipularang toll road. Trips can combine more than one area.
Two of the five sample packages combine Jakarta with Bogor or Bandung.
Which golf clubs does Zora have authorised tee-time access to?
Zora Golf Travel holds authorised tee-time booking access at Royale Jakarta Golf Club, Damai Indah Golf at both PIK and BSD, and Jagorawi Golf and Country Club. Tee times at other courses in Jakarta, Bogor and Bandung are booked through each club's standard visitor arrangements, and the written quote shows every course on the itinerary.
Club rules on group size and booking windows still apply.
Does a Zora guide stay with you for the whole trip?
Yes. A personal guide meets you on arrival at the airport and stays with you every day of the trip, travelling with you to each course, hotel and transfer. The guide is with you until your farewell at departure, so you do not have to arrange transport, check-ins or tee-time logistics yourself.
On the Bandung tour the guide travels with you on the train.
How much does a Zora golf trip cost?
Zora's 4D3N Jakarta and Bogor golf packages start from IDR 5,700,000 (about US$315) per golfer, twin share, for a group of eight on weekdays. Other trips are priced on application (POA), and the cost depends on the courses, the dates, the number of rounds, the hotels and the size of the group. Zora prepares one written quote per golfer covering tee times, accommodation, transfers, daily transport and the personal guide, so the full price is clear before booking.
Quotes are prepared after a short WhatsApp conversation about your trip.
