Sun International is making it easier than ever for fans to attend the 2018 Nedbank Golf Challenge hosted by Gary Player with a new travel partner putting the drive into ‘Africa’s Major’ this November.

Zeelo, a world-class on-demand coach service, is reinventing the way golf fans travel to Sun City for the 8-11 November tournament on the European Tour’s prestigious Rolex Series, and is bringing sports fans together at their favourite events like never before.

Zeelo uses unique technology that connects like-minded people with direct, hassle-free and fun shared coach services based on consumer demand.

Golf fans will now be able to experience hassle-free, safe and affordable travel to and from Sun City for this tournament on a luxury Zeelo 60-seater coach.

The Zeelo coaches will be leaving from The Maslow in Sandton, Time Square in Menlyn, Clearwater Mall in Roodepoort, and East Rand Mall in Boksburg for only R350 return including a complimentary drinks voucher.

Coaches depart at 07h30 and return at 18h00 daily from Thursday through to Sunday of the tournament, and fan who are staying over at Sun City are able to book a return trip on a different day to their departure trip. Groups and corporates can also book a tailor-made Zeelo experience for this tournament.
