Golf in Vietnam: What to Expect

Course standards, caddies, transfers, weather and the practical details first-time visitors ask about.

What the golf experience is like

Vietnam’s leading courses are modern, well presented and service focused. Most rounds include a caddie, and many courses use shared carts. Your day normally runs more smoothly when tee times, transfers and group details are arranged together.

What to plan before you arrive

• Choose a practical hotel base rather than changing hotels every night.
• Allow enough time between golf and evening plans.
• Pack for heat, humidity and occasional rain.
• Confirm caddie gratuities and course policies before the first round.

My view

For a first trip, Central Vietnam gives the strongest balance of golf, beach, food and easy logistics. Four rounds across seven days is comfortable for most groups.
