What makes a Vietnam golf tour so special?

It is the perfect blend of old and new, with an incredibly diverse culture, stunning natural landscapes, big historic cities, and delectable cuisine - perfect for a bucket-list golf holiday.

Is Vietnam good for golf?
In recent years, Vietnam has emerged as a world-class golf destination and boasts over 80 golf courses across the country, many of which were designed by some of golf’s biggest names (inc. Greg Norman, Sir Nick Faldo, Jack Nicklaus and Robert Trent Jones Jr). Greg Norman has laid claim to two of the country’s best golf courses in the Bluffs Ho Tram Strip and BRG Da Nang Golf Resort.
The Bluffs Ho Tram Strip benefits from a coastal location in Vung Tau with gigantic, native sand dunes and rolling topography. Likewise, the Norman Course at Da Nang picturesquely sits along the east coast of the country and takes full advantage of the sandy soil and beautiful backdrop.
In addition to Greg Norman, Robert Trent Jones Jr has also contributed greatly to Vietnam’s golfing rise with his delivery of Hoiana Shores. This iconic layout is set within a UNESCO World Heritage Site Known as The City of Lanterns, south of Da Nang (nearby BRG Da Nang). The course plays like any great Links and has been likened to classic Scottish courses, playing firm and fast, with rolling fairways and sand dunes.
In the northern region, near Hanoi, the Kings Island Golf Club is the perfect example of first-class resort golf and even boasts a Jack Nicklaus II design.
Enjoy incredible food & hospitality
Southeast Asia is famous for hospitality with its kindness and giving approach, and Vietnam is no different. Whether you’re staying in a family-run bed & breakfast or in five-star luxury, first-class service can always be expected. From Silk Path Hotel in Hanoi to Bay Hotel in Ho Chi Minh, we offer very good hotels at amazing value. Plus, with Vanda Hotel in Da Nang and TTC Hotel Premium Michelia in Nha Trang, your hospitality needs are well and truly taken care of to fully explore the best of Vietnam.
Throughout the country, you’ll find varied cuisine with local food and fresh produce specific to each individual region. Given its proximity to other countries, there are strong Chinese and Thai influences, as well as subtle inspirations from France due to the 60-year colonial rule.
Food-themed walking tours, cooking classes, and fine dining are all easily found, but visits to the local markets for street food are part of the Vietnam experience and are the best way to fully immerse in the famous food and culture. Keep your eyes peeled for noodle soup (Pho), Vietnamese sandwiches (Banh Mi), Hoi An Noodles (Cao lau), and spring rolls (Cha gio).
