Bangkok
Away from the hustle and bustle of its vibrant street life and ornate shrines, Bangkok offer visitors an ever growing number of quality golf courses to enjoy. Thailand is known as the ‘Land of Smiles’ and for good reason, especially for those looking to enjoy a round at some of the capital city’s most unique venues. Despite each course offering visitors something different in terms of layout and difficulty, one thing in which they all have in common is the tropical perfection with surrounds them. With water prominent among many of Bangkok’s most popular courses, be sure to make use of the tips offered by your own personal caddie, of whom can range from a wise old head to a beautiful young Thai lady.
Bangkok golf courses generally offer great value for money partly due to the fact that new courses continue to open and the number of golfers around the world is in decline. The capital city is home to many of the country’s best golf courses, many of which have been renovated to world class standard in the past few years. Indeed, Bangkok is now viewed as a hub of golfing activity, and offers the perfect combination of city and leisure facilities for all to enjoy. Excellent clubhouse amenities and challenging scenic courses, along with a smiling and friendly service, help to ensure that a golfing holiday in Bangkok becomes a golfer's paradise. With many courses offering transport to and from your hotel, be sure to hit the fairways early to avoid the afternoon heat. You will certainly not be disappointed with what Bangkok has to offer, and here are our top ten courses for you to try. Golf Bangkok - subpage
