What was your golfing journey?

I started playing golf when I was 16 because my brother was going to JNJGF lessons. Soon I started hitting it past him, so he quit, ha ha. I started taking it pretty seriously, joined Castle Hill Country Club, then got a golf scholarship in the USA after high school in Australia. After College, I did my traineeship at Concord Golf Club in Sydney. I then did some teaching and played ALPG events. I stopped playing after I had kids and moved to Denmark, when my girls were 2 years old. I miss it and love when the weather is better, so we can go out an have a hit!

What’s your idea of a perfect four ball? Who would you invite on your team?

I would have to invite:

Wayne Gretsky – So I can drill him about hockey skills for my kids
Tiger Woods – Because you just have to
Matt Rife – So I can laugh all day

What do you enjoy the most about hosting tours?

I most enjoy meeting the wonderful people that come on the tours. Everyone has the same passion for golf and travel. And of course the fabulous golf courses we play and hotels/cities we visit.

What do you love the most about travelling?

I love experiencing new sights, accents, architecture, food and wine. Being able to experience a world other than our own day to day lives. You open yourself up to meeting new people and appreciating the beauty of the world and being grateful for how lucky we are to be able to experience it all.

What do you think are the most important attributes of a Tour Host?

I think the most important attributes are empathy, patience and a good sense of humour.

What do you do when you’re not hosting tours?

I am a true hockey mum! I drive my 3 kids to practice every day and then all over the country to watch them play on weekends. We send each other hockey tips on Instagram, and all our dinner conversations revolve around hockey. My side hustle is selling Bling Sun Visors for Women, on Amazon.

I just love hosting golf tours. There is nothing in the world I enjoy doing more (apart from watching my kids play hockey). I am a helper and a coach. I love helping people and making them happy and comfortable, and making sure they are having a good time. It gives me such joy to watch a ‘student’ execute my golf instructions, and when they get the Ah Ha! Moment, it is just SO good!

Testimonials for Neira

… Neira was fabulous, I can’t say enough good things about her. She was kind, patient, smart, caring and never missed a single detail on our whole trip. She handled any issue that came up with ease and in a confident swift manner. She was 100% engaged with us the entire trip. Most importantly we left the trip feeling as though we made a lifelong friend in her. JoAnn, Waldorf MD

… Everyone loved Neira and we were so grateful to have such a warm, caring, organized, professional and fun host. She never got defensive when constructive feedback was being given and encouraged honest feedback as she truly wants folks to enjoy the tour and be return customers. It was clear how much Neira sincerely cared about each person on the tour and how much she enjoys her job. Maryle, Sammamish WA

… Wonderful organisation, communication and awesome host Neira who went above and beyond to make this trip memorable in so many ways. Thanks to Golf & Tours. This trip was a bucket list tick off with so many wonderful memories created with a great group of women from all over the world. Jan, West Wodonga VIC

What do you enjoy the most about your role with Golf & Tours?

I thoroughly enjoy planning our tours, learning about new destinations (in the hope to one day travel there) and help people achieve their dreams of travelling to world class, bucket list destinations. I love that I am able to work so closely with our incredible tour hosts and get to talk with our guests throughout their entire experience with us. We are always striving to create wonderful connections between guests which is so important. It is wonderful to witness new and genuine friendships develop off the back of travelling with us.

What do you enjoy the most about hosting tours?

Meeting new people, travelling to great destinations and have a wonderful time. For me seeing and feeling the beautiful connections everyone makes is so special, in todays’ world, feeling connected, and important, is vital to our well-being and to be able to play a part in making someone feel wonderful, feel looked after and cared for is very important to me.

What do you love the most about travelling?

Exploring new destinations and immersing yourself in a difference culture is wonderful. People love to connect, and no matter where you are, this doesn’t really change. Oh and of course….. who can go past all of the glorious food!

What do you think are the most important attributes of a Tour Company?

A reputable and trustworthy reputation along with a well organised, well planned and executed experience is essential. We like our guests to not have to worry about any of the planning, to know they can just turn up and we have the everything covered. Safety is of the utmost importance to us, so we ensure we have fully researched our destinations. It is also imperative that the guests and hosts have support when they need it, and we ensure that is always available.

What do you do when you’re not hosting tours?

My role at Golf & Tours also covers the operations of the business. This means you will often find me at the end of an email or the end of the phone! I thoroughly enjoy working with all our suppliers, and our team to deliver a great guest experience. When you finally get to meet someone after only speaking over email or phone, it like catching up with a long lost friend!

Tell us a bit about yourself

I live along the northern beaches of Perth, in Western Australia with my family which consists of my partner, 2 children, 2 dogs and 7 chickens! You will often find us down at the beach (not the chickens) or on a great road trip. WA has so many beautiful places to travel too, I am not sure if we will ever see it all. I am originally from Tasmania and have lived in many places along the east coast of Australia. WA is definitely home for me now though, although I would always consider migrating north for the winter! I have recently started golf lessons and can absolutely see why everyone loves it so much. I can’t wait to get on the course and start honing my new skills.

Tell us a bit about yourself

I have a passion for helping others both golfers and sports people, to accomplish their sports dreams. Whatever their sports dream may be! From building confidence, to playing 9 holes socially with their friends, competing in 18 hole competitions and reducing their handicap and helping athletes compete on the world stage.

Sport has been part of my life all of my life, therefore I love it! I love training at the gym daily, as it is important for me to look after myself so that I am fit and strong. I still love to practice. I love to go to the driving range and hit golf balls, practice out on the golf course with my Mum (spend quality time together) or get out my tennis ball machine and practice tennis. I love to travel and go to new destinations with my husband (and of course play golf with him too!). I just love life. I embrace it and pursue things I love to do.

Testimonials for Tiff

… The Golf & Tours trip to the Gold Coast exceeded my expectations. It was just the break I needed to have some fun, meet lovely people, play golf & learn skills. Being relatively new to golf, I never thought I’d be able to play on some fabulous courses & get a whole ‘golf experience’ so early in my journey. Our coach, Tiff, was very encouraging & we learnt some very practical techniques that you could use immediately to improve your game. I learned & laughed so much! Will definitely do another tour like this in the future. Fran, Bentleigh, VIC

… This was my first golf tour, but from my very first interaction with Ben Saunders at Golf &Tours to the last day playing golf, everything was so well planned and organised. Tiff Mika, our coach and mentor, made us all feel valued and gave us some very useful coaching sessions and tips without trying to change our natural way of playing golf. I thoroughly enjoyed the week and will be using Golf & Tours again. Kim, Buddina, QLD

… The Kangaroo Valley weekend was fabulous. We met on a lovely blue sky day, whilst surrounded by native bush, with a welcome introduction from Tiffany. The golf games were challenging and fun. The clinics and tuition were helpful as we played on the course. So good to share the time with other enthusiasts with plenty of laughs and friendship. Hope to go on another trip some time. Joy Mosman, NSW

… It was so great to have the time on the course over the weekend where Tiff could watch each individual and then give advice specific to that person. The teaching environment was fun and comfortable with no pressure. Really liked that there was no competition over the weekend. Also loved the simplicity of Tiff’s approach. Trisha, Haberfield, NSW

What is the best golf club you’ve ever played at?

Lord Howe Island Golf Course is a favourite, not because of the condition of the course but the amazing views of the ocean and Mt Gower. I am often more interested in the views, vegetation and birds on a golf course than my golf.

Cape Wickham Golf Club looks amazing and is certainly one I would like to play some time.

What do you enjoy the most about hosting tours?

I enjoy meeting the diverse group of people that golf brings together. Of course, I also enjoy playing all the wonderful courses that Golf & Tours organise for our clients.

Travelling near or far gives us a chance to see life from a different perspective and get a little taste of different cultures. That’s not to mention the taste of the local wines and food!

As the main priority of a good host is to make sure everyone has a great time, I think quiet, no fuss problem solving is a must. A good sense of fun and humour is also a very important attribute.

Apart from playing golf once or twice a week, I still enjoy my part time job as a passionate oncology nurse and spending time with my family and friends. Eating out and listening to live music is also a favourite pastime.

I am a relatively late comer to golf but have made more friends from all walks of life than at any other time through the game. I have been fortunate to travel quite a lot over the years and in recent years, adding golf to the itinerary has made for many wonderful experiences. I am always ready to chat to people and interested to hear about their lives and experiences.

I am an outgoing, friendly person who loves to be active. I spent 19 years of my working career as a Flight Attendant, which is where my love of travel began. Working as a Flight Attendant taught me to be understanding of people’s needs, and to be able to multi task, be organised and punctual. Using my customer service skills is second nature to me.

I have a passion for all things golf and prior to COVID-19 would snow ski as much as I could with my husband. I also love to eat out and discover new shopping destinations.
