Paradise Travel designs private and tailor-made Vietnam golf tours around the courses you want to play, your travel dates, preferred number of rounds and the amount of time you want for sightseeing or relaxation. Golf holidays can focus on one region or combine courses across Northern, Central and Southern Vietnam.
The Vietnam golf packages below are sample itineraries rather than fixed programs. Current ideas range from 3-day golf stopovers to 12-day North-to-South journeys, with different combinations of golf rounds, hotels and sightseeing. Use them to compare regions and trip styles, then adjust the course selection, tee times, accommodation, private transfers, free days and other travel arrangements around your plans.
Paradise Travel has planned and operated private travel in Vietnam since 2005. Our local travel and operations teams can coordinate golf bookings with accommodation, airport and golf-course transfers, domestic travel and other trip services, allowing your itinerary to be organized as one journey rather than a collection of separate bookings.
A good Vietnam golf holiday depends on four decisions: which golf region and courses you want to play, how many rounds you want, how much travel you are comfortable with and which golf services need to be arranged. Use the sections below to compare these choices before Paradise Travel builds the itinerary around your plans.
Paradise Travel uses its published Vietnam golf tours as starting points for private and tailor-made itineraries. You can follow an existing golf route, replace individual courses or ask our team to build a different program around your travel dates, number of rounds, hotel preferences and other interests.
The tours on this page demonstrate different golf-trip structures. Short programs focus on one golf region, while longer journeys combine courses in several parts of Vietnam with domestic travel, sightseeing or leisure days.
The current collection ranges from a 3-day Hanoi golf stopover to a 12-day North-to-South golf journey. The number of rounds also varies, so trip duration alone does not determine how golf-intensive the holiday will be.
Paradise Travel combines itinerary planning with local operations in Vietnam. The team works with hotels, drivers, guides and travel suppliers and remains involved after booking, helping golf bookings, transfers and other trip arrangements operate as one itinerary.
Tell Paradise Travel your travel dates, number of golfers and non-golfers, preferred regions or courses, expected number of rounds, hotel level and approximate budget. The team can then prepare a private itinerary and quotation and refine the golf and travel arrangements with you before confirmation.
The best golf region depends on your travel dates, available time and whether golf or wider travel is the main priority. Short holidays normally work better around one regional golf base, while longer trips can combine two or three course clusters.
Hanoi works well as a base for golfers who want several rounds without changing hotels every day. Paradise Travel’s current Northern Vietnam itineraries combine courses such as King’s Island, Legend Hill, Chi Linh, Phoenix, Tam Dao and other courses around Hanoi, Hai Phong, Ha Long and Ninh Binh.
Current sample trips range from a 3-day Hanoi stopover with two courses to an 8-day Hanoi and Ninh Binh itinerary with six rounds. This makes Northern Vietnam suitable for both short golf breaks and more golf-intensive regional journeys.
Da Nang and Hoi An create a compact Central Vietnam golf base because several courses can be reached without changing travel regions. Paradise Travel’s current 6-day Central Vietnam golf itinerary includes four 18-hole rounds at BRG Legend Da Nang, Ba Na Hills, Vinpearl Golf Nam Hoi An and Hoiana Shores while keeping the trip centered around Da Nang and Hoi An.
Ho Chi Minh City works well for a short southern golf break. Paradise Travel currently publishes 4- and 5-day itineraries using courses such as Vietnam Golf & Country Club, Long Thanh and Song Be, with private transfers between the city and golf courses.
Travelers with more time can combine golf regions. A current 7-day sample itinerary connects Hanoi with Da Nang, while Paradise Travel’s 12-day North-to-South golf journey includes six rounds across Northern and Southern Vietnam, Da Lat and Mui Ne together with domestic flights and sightseeing.
Vietnam’s regional weather patterns differ significantly. Northern Vietnam has cooler winters and a summer monsoon, Central Vietnam has a long sunny period but wetter late-year months, and Southern Vietnam remains warm year-round with a clearer dry period from roughly December to April. If your dates are fixed, Paradise Travel can prioritize the golf region whose seasonal conditions fit the wider trip more naturally.
For course-by-course research, our guide to golf courses in Vietnam compares individual layouts and locations in greater depth.
A Vietnam golf holiday should be planned by golf density, not by trip length alone. Two itineraries of the same duration can feel completely different if one schedules a round almost every day while the other leaves time for sightseeing, cruises or rest.
Three or four days works well when golf is the main purpose of a short stay. Paradise Travel currently publishes a 3-day Hanoi itinerary with two rounds and 4-day Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City golf trips with three rounds.
Five or six days can support several rounds while keeping the trip within one region. Current examples include four rounds in a 5-day North or South Vietnam golf tour, four rounds in the 6-day Da Nang and Hoi An itinerary, and five rounds in a 6-day Hanoi golf and culture tour.
This duration gives you a meaningful choice. Paradise Travel’s 8-day Hanoi and Ninh Binh itinerary includes six golf courses, while the 9-day Hanoi and Ha Long itinerary includes only three rounds and reserves more time for Hanoi sightseeing and an overnight Ha Long Bay cruise.
Neither approach is automatically better. The right itinerary depends on whether you want golf to dominate the holiday or share the trip with other experiences.
A longer itinerary can combine several golf regions without requiring a round every day. Paradise Travel’s 12-day North-to-South itinerary includes six golf rounds together with Hanoi, Ha Long Bay, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Lat and Mui Ne.
There is no fixed ideal number for every golfer. Consider your fitness, preferred tee times, transfer distances and how much sightseeing or recovery time you want. Paradise Travel can separate rounds with lighter days instead of automatically placing golf on every available morning.
Golf-service inclusions should be confirmed for each course and itinerary before booking. Green fees, caddie services, golf carts, rental clubs and tee-time conditions can vary by course, date and package, so do not assume that one inclusion policy applies across Vietnam.
Check whether the quoted golf round includes both the green fee and caddie fee. Selected Paradise Travel golf tours explicitly include green fees and caddie fees as specified in the booking, but the final inclusions should be confirmed for your chosen courses.
Golf-cart rules vary by golf club and rate. Some course packages include a shared cart, while other bookings may price the cart separately or apply specific use conditions. Paradise Travel can confirm the policy for each round before the itinerary is finalized.
If you prefer not to travel with your own clubs, ask for rental availability at the courses in your itinerary. Rental sets are available at many established clubs, but brand, shaft, handedness, price and availability should be confirmed rather than assumed.
Paradise Travel can request tee times based on your preferred schedule, but a requested time is not the same as a confirmed tee time. Final availability depends on the golf course, date and booking conditions.
Private golf-course transfers can be coordinated with the rest of the itinerary. This is particularly important when playing courses outside Hanoi, Da Nang or Ho Chi Minh City because transfer times can affect how much sightseeing or free time is practical on the same day.
Non-golfing companions do not need to spend the day at the course. Paradise Travel can arrange sightseeing, food, wellness or leisure activities separately and coordinate the schedule so the group can travel and dine together outside golf hours.
We had a fantastic golf holiday in Vietnam with Paradise Travel. Everything was arranged very smoothly, from airport pickup and hotel to tee times and transportation to the courses. The driver was always on time and the whole trip felt relaxed. It was great to have someone else take care of the logistics.
Vietnam offers a wide range of golf courses, from coastal and championship layouts to courses surrounded by mountains and forests. Popular golf destinations include Hanoi, Ha Long Bay, Da Nang, Hoi An, Nha Trang, Dalat and Ho Chi Minh City. We can recommend suitable courses based on your playing preferences, travel dates and itinerary.
Yes. Our Vietnam golf tours can be customized around your preferred golf courses, number of rounds, travel dates, hotels and budget. You can also combine golf with sightseeing, food experiences, beach stays or other activities.
Yes. Paradise Travel’s published golf tours are sample itineraries, so you can request different golf courses when building your private trip. The team can check whether the requested course fits your route and travel dates and whether suitable tee times are available before preparing the final itinerary and quotation.
Vietnam is a year-round golf destination, but the best time depends on the region. Northern Vietnam is generally most comfortable from October to April, while Central and Southern Vietnam have different periods that are well suited to golf. We can recommend the best region and itinerary based on your travel dates. Check out our detailed guide on Vietnam Seasons and Climate for more insight.
A 5-7 day golf trip is a good starting point if you want to play several courses without rushing. For a more comprehensive golf holiday covering different regions, 10-14 days allows more time for golf, sightseeing and relaxation.
The cost depends on the number of rounds, golf courses, hotels, transportation and travel dates. Vietnam offers options from comfortable golf holidays to premium golf experiences. Once we know your preferred courses and travel plans, we can prepare a suitable quotation.
Not necessarily. Many golf courses offer golf club rental, making it possible to travel without carrying your own equipment. If you prefer to use your own clubs, you can bring them with you. We can check rental availability when arranging your golf itinerary.
Absolutely. We can arrange sightseeing, food experiences, cultural activities, spa treatments, beach time and other activities for non-golfers while you are playing. This makes a Vietnam golf holiday suitable for couples, families and groups with different interests.
Yes. Your Vietnam golf tour does not need to include a full sightseeing program. Paradise Travel can build a golf-focused itinerary around your preferred courses, hotels, private transfers and free time, then add cultural visits, food experiences or other activities only when you want them.
For an accurate golf-tour quotation, share your travel dates, number of golfers and non-golfers, preferred destinations or golf courses, expected number of rounds, hotel category, room requirements and approximate budget. Also let the team know whether you will bring your own golf clubs or need rental equipment and whether sightseeing, beach stays or other activities should be included.
