The Grand ASEAN Tour 2027 is the most comprehensive golf travel itinerary in Southeast Asia. Nineteen days, 18 nights, two countries, nine championship courses, and a set of non-golf experiences — an Angkor Wat sunrise, an overnight Ha Long Bay luxury cruise, the lantern-lit evenings of Hoi An — that most golfers would travel for independently. The tour runs February 22 through March 12, 2027, departing from Phnom Penh, Cambodia and concluding in Da Nang, Vietnam. The price is AUD $9,498 per person.
This is a comprehensive guide to what the tour involves, what is included, who it suits, and how to secure a place.
The Full Itinerary: City by City
Phnom Penh, Cambodia (Days 1-3)
The tour begins in Cambodia's capital with arrival transfers, accommodation briefing, and the first golf at Vattanac Golf Resort — Cambodia's finest course, laid out adjacent to ornate Khmer temple architecture. Two days in Phnom Penh include golf, time at the Royal Palace and National Museum, and evenings along the riverside promenade. This is an intense, historically complex city and the ASEAN Links guide provides orientation before arrival.
Siem Reap, Cambodia (Days 4-6)
By domestic flight to Siem Reap — gateway to the Angkor temple complex. Two rounds at Angkor Golf Resort, a full day dedicated to the Angkor Wat complex (including the sunrise visit), and evenings in Siem Reap town. This section of the tour consistently produces the most unexpected emotional responses — the Angkor Wat sunrise is one of those travel experiences that lives in the memory.
Hanoi, Vietnam (Days 7-9) — via included international flight
The included international flight from Siem Reap to Hanoi marks the country transition. Hanoi is a full day's exploration before golf at BRG Kings Island Golf Resort, set on an island in Dong Mo Lake northwest of the city. One additional day in Hanoi allows time for the Old Quarter, Hoan Kiem Lake, and the Temple of Literature.
Ha Long Bay, Vietnam (Days 10-11)
The included overnight luxury cruise on Ha Long Bay is the itinerary's non-golf centrepiece. The three-and-a-half-hour journey from Hanoi leads to the UNESCO World Heritage bay and its 2,000 limestone islands. Two days on the water, with kayaking, swimming, cave exploration, and the unforgettable experience of waking up on the water surrounded by karst scenery.
Da Nang and Hoi An, Vietnam (Days 12-19)
By domestic flight south to Da Nang, where the tour's golf intensity concentrates. Multiple championship rounds across Montgomerie Links (Montgomerie), Ba Na Hills Golf Club (Luke Donald), Laguna Lang Co (Nick Faldo), and Hoiana Shores (Robert Trent Jones Jr). Non-golf days include the Golden Bridge, Marble Mountains, and multiple evenings in Hoi An's Ancient Town. The tour concludes in Da Nang on March 12.

Frequently Asked Questions
What handicap range is appropriate?
The tour accommodates golfers from approximately 6 to 24 handicap. The courses range from accessible to genuinely demanding, and the PGA guide adapts the scoring format to the group's range and competitive appetite. Players at either end of this range have completed previous tours without difficulty.
Is there a fitness requirement?
No demanding physical activity is required beyond golf and optional sightseeing walking. Temple visits involve extended walking on uneven stone surfaces, but at a pace entirely within the capacity of any regular golfer. The tour schedule builds in rest days and does not play golf every day.
Is a single supplement available?
Yes. Golfers travelling without a roommate can request a single supplement. The additional cost varies by accommodation category — contact the team for the current supplement rate.
What is the group size?
ASEAN Links tours typically operate with groups of 12-20 participants. This size is deliberately managed to allow preferred tee time access at each venue while maintaining the social dynamic that makes a long tour enjoyable. Larger groups fragment the experience; smaller groups can feel thin at the bar after a round.
When is the best time to book?
Places on the Grand ASEAN Tour are limited and fill on a first-confirmed basis. Interest from previous tour participants generates early demand for each departure. Enquiring 6-12 months before the February 2027 departure date is recommended.
