Golf tours throughout the country 

Visitors at Long Thanh Golf Club in Dong Nai Province

During the high season for tourism, Ben Thanh Tour-ist is offering golf packages throughout the country.  Tourists can combine time for golf and exploring local attractions from the north to the south of Vietnam.

Cao Ngoc Minh, Public Relations Executive for Ben Thanh Tourist, said the tours will take travelers to nine international-standard courses in Ha Tay, Hai Duong, Binh Thuan, Lam Dong, Dinh Duong, and Ba Ria Vung Tau.

�We recently arranged golf tours for international tourists from Japan and England, and received good feedback from customers. So, this season we launched nine new packages at once to promote such tours to visitors,� she said.

The nine golf courses are Song Be Golf Resort, Ocean Dunes Golf Club, Vietnam Golf & Country Club, Dalat Palace Golf Club, Bochang Dong Nai Golf Resort, Long Thanh Golf Club, Vung Tau Paradise Golf Club, Kings� Island Golf Club, and Chi Linh Star Golf & Country Club.

Minh said the company has trained tour guides to cater to customers participating in the tours. Most of them also have experience in guiding golf tour guests, and are able to guide new-comers through the rules of the game.

The tours vary from four to ten days, depending on the client�s requirements.

For international guests, Ben Thanh Tourist will provide airport pick-up service, as well as offer subsequent tours for those staying in Vietnam.

If tourists have only a short time for vacation and prefer travel in the south of Vietnam, they can choose the four-day, three-night short excursion, playing golf at Binh Thuan�s Ocean Dunes Golf Club, Binh Duong�s Song Be Golf Resort, and Vietnam Golf & Country Club.

The Ocean Dunes Golf Club is a member of the Finest Golf Clubs of the World and was designed by Masters Champion Nick Faldo. It is an outstanding natural site with sand dunes, sea breezes, and fantastic sea views. The 18-hole Song Be Golf Resort is located on 100 hectares and was built within the natural landscape of fruit orchards and coconut palms.

Vietnam Golf & Country Club consists of two courses, the West course favoring the Asian tradition of narrow tree-lined fairways and fast, smooth greens, and the East course offering long, wide fairways with well-placed bunkers and water hazards, plus challenging, undulating greens.

If visitors extend their tour by two days, they�ll have the opportunity to visit Dalat Palace Golf Club in the Central Highlands.  There, visitors can play golf and enjoy ecological tours like boat trips and orchard tours, where they can pick fruit while listening to local traditional music and learning more about the daily lives of local people.

Starting from the capital city of Hanoi in the north, tourists have similar chances to golf on famous courses and explore the region�s attractions. Some of the courses awaiting visitors include the 18-hole Kings� Island Golf Club in Ha Tay Province, and the 36-hole Chi Linh Star Golf & Country Club in northern Hai Duong Province, located in a valley surround by Limestone Mountains. 

Minh said the golf packages are the luxury tours of Ben Thanh Tourist during this season, so guests will stay at three to five-star hotels and resorts.
