Yes, many of the golf courses are beautiful just to drive around.
But Golfers have to pay an additional fee, beyond the amenity fee, to drive on the cart paths. The fee is per golfer, not per cart... so each golfer in the cart pays a fee. It's $4 per person or about $140 per year.
There is some kind of rule about a non-golfer riding along with a golfer for a round. I'm not sure what it is but a stop at one of the starter shacks would clear that up.
Even when a golfer decides for some reason he can't play anymore and wants to leave the game... driving on the trail to get off the course takes some care so you don't get clobbered by a golf ball. At each tee box you ask the group there to wait till you are out of range on your drive to the next tee box, before the tee off. It's usually not a problem but you would not have time to sightsee on your way to the next tee box.
