Golf Customer Testimonials and Feedback Regarding Thailand Golf Packages
Hi K.Tina,
Thank you for all the arrangements... it was very professional from start to finish. I also appreciated the fact that everything was pre organized from bus to buggy. A particular thanks to Rocky... he was exceptional.
We will be back for our next trip.

Well we are back in Cape Town and do I need to be here its freezing cold, blowing a gale and pouring rain!!! I would do anything to be back in Thailand.
It was a fantastic holiday and all six of us had the best time of our lives. Seymore and I enjoyed all the trips, the entertainment and of course the golf while the ladies just shopped and shopped. I have seen enough of handbags, bracelets, silk underwear, swim costumes, shirts, and dresses.
They too enjoyed every single day of the holiday and it has given us all some wonderful memories.
The golf was very special and Thai Country Club and Red Mountain were the best and an honour to play on them. Blue Canyon not in the same class but still very good. The dinner on the boat and the Fantasia were superb and the day on the boat to visit all the islands etc was exceptional.
But the best part of the trip was without doubt the smooth organisation and precision running of our fifteen days by the Golf Asian Group.
Mark, Tina and Yim what stars you are thank you thank you for arranging a very special holiday for us.
I have already started to send out feelers about a golf trip for next year sometime July/August/September.
Thanks again.
Love to all especially your wife - she lovely.

Good morning Mark,
Just completed survey and thought that a personal thank you was required after our Siem Reap, Cambodia & Hua Hin, Thailand Golf Trip.
Once again your company has excelled in every way in looking after our group of 8 from The Grange G C, Adelaide.
From the start of the process in late 2009, until the conclusion of our Golf Tour June 20, 2010, every detail was arranged expertly.
I personally wish to acknowledge your driver AKE as the most professional person a group could have.
Your staff need to be commended for their attention to the customer when changes are made on tour.
Mark, please keep up the great work and I look forward to our next Golf Adventure thru your company.
Cheers,

Dear Jim,
I arrived back safely, but on reflection 8 days was not long enough. My visit to Chiang Mai was wonderful and as I expected your company did the usual 'Top Notch' hospitality. The travel arrangements were a breeze and the Ratilanna was exceptional. I would like to give you my honest feedback on the courses I played.
1. I started with Royal Chiang Mai: Clearly an older more traditional course, well laid out and in pretty good condition, although a little scruffier than I had experienced before but generally very enjoyable. The greens were slick and true and quite a challenge. I would rate it a 7/10. Nice and I would most certainly visit it again
2. Then onto Chiang Mai Higlands. I played this course twice and found it again to be very well laid out, but nobody told me I needed to take a bucket and spade!! I have never seen so many bunkers in all the time I have played golf, but if you could master it off the Tee then all was good... I couldn't but I still really enjoyed this course. The course was scorched brown but still in top quality condition but obviously they have no water. Great course and I can imagine with some rain this would be right up there with the best of them. Very challenging. I would give this course an 8/10
3. Then onto Summit Green Valley: Wow what a golf experince, everything about this place was fantastic, superb layout, wonderful condition, although the greens were like lightening. This is a fabulous golf course and I would highly recommend this course, but maybe that's because I had quite a few birdies and and eagle so I might be a little biased. I would rate this as a 9+/10.
4. Finally I played Alpine Golf Resort, although I was supposed to have a rest day on my Friday I was so taken with the course that the minute I stepped off the 18th I re-booked for another round. Tight narrow fairways, water and bunkers everywhere, this was as challenging as I have ever played anywhere, but one of those courses you just want to have another go at. I didn't play badly and had a few birdies but anything slightly of the mark was well punished. I played my second round off the black T's and found it easier but still a real challenge. The condition of this course was exceptional, well manicured and beautifully laid out. Fantastic club house ( as they all were ) and just overall a wonderful experience. I would rate this as close to 10/10 as I could get.
I would also like to say, that with the troubles in Bkk, I had to change my plans at the last minute, which I have to say you made very easy for me and once again provided me with a stress and hassle free Thailand Golf experience that I thoroughly enjoyed. Thank You and all your staff for an excellent trip.
Hope to hear from you soon
Kind regards

Hello Bee,
Just wanted to say Thank you very much for all your help leading up to our wonderful two weeks in the Land of Smiles.
All of the 25 clients and myself were very impressed with the great service of GolfAsian.
I had great pleasure in dealing with you and I hope that we can continue this for the future for many years.
Once again, Thank you very much.

Hi Yim,
Back a couple of days now and thought I should drop you a short email thanking you and Golfasian for putting together a terrific trip for our group of 28.
Special thanks to Took for looking after the guys. 28 rowdy middle aged Aussies can't be the easiest and Took was fantastic all the way, making it easy for any of the guys to arrange visits to the boxing or island trips.
The accommodation was fine for us although I can imagine different groups looking for something a bit more modern but the location was great. Knowing now how humid it is at this time of the year, I'd probably come at a different time though.
A bit on the courses. Red Mountain is the standout. Could have happily played there every day. Lakes course at Blue Canyon was very good and Laguna Phuket and Loch Palm were good entrees without being overly difficult. Couldn't fault the course condition or service at any of these.
Mission Hills was in very poor condition. Fairways nearly saturated and greens that had more sand than grass. If they can have the 9th and 18th greens in perfect condition, there's no reason the rest of the greens should be as bad as they were. The 17th looked more like a bunker than a green!!
The two restaurants, Sala Bua and Ban Rim Pa, were perfect for the two dinners, in fact, Sala Bua got a fair workout for the rest of the trip.
All in all, a great time was had by all and I will not hesitate to recommend Golfasian to any other golfers I know are heading that way for a holiday.

Hello Yim,
Thanks much for all the work. We had a great time.
We will be doing another trip in November.
We would like to play Thai Country Club, and then two of either Alpine, Amata Springs or Muang Kaew, and the one on Sunday closest to the airport.
Thanks.

Hi Jim,
We just want to thank you and your colleagues for making our stay in Bangkok so pleasant. We really were looked after well by both Aki and Sha. We will give your details to our friends in India who would like to organise a golf tour with the members of our golf club in Hyderabad, India.

Hi Yim/ Tina
Quick note from me & my pals to let you know how much we enjoyed the golf holiday.
Can you pass on a special thank you to Ake who looks after us like a father, he always has a smile for us & takes care of things. All we basically have to do is turn up on the morning which is great..
There is no doubt that Ake is key to us booking through Golf Asian we have got to know him well over the past 2 years hope to see him next year. Shah is also excellent and the Bridge Over River Kwai trip was a great day spent.
Once again Thank you all once again for making our holiday run smoothly which provided us all the chance to relax & play some great golf courses.
Next year hope I to increase our party. Be in touch in a couple of months to work on next years trip.
My best regards to you all at Golf Asian

Dear Ms Bee,
This is to thank you for your professional support and organisation. All was perfect (even the weather !!!).
The 4 courses were indeed very nice and interesting to play. The Siam CC Old Course was bit difficult for my wife (too long holes for women) but a real beauty.
Thanks again.

Hi Bee
I just wanted to send you a big thank you for organizing our golf tour earlier this month. Everything went like clockwork and your company was a pleasure to deal with.
The two drivers who accompanied us all week were first class - Aek and Ponchai (I hope I have spelled their names correctly) were a pleasure to have with us daily, were excellent drivers and were both a credit to your company.
I would recommend them to anyone anytime.
Once again - thank you for a great tour - my clients all had a ball!!!

I am very pleased with the kind of service that you extended to us during my group's recent visit to Bangkok. All details were ironed out and we experienced no hitches during the 4-day trip.
I will definitely use your service again.

Hi Jim,
Just thought I would send you a short note regarding our recent holiday that you organised.
I would have to say that all of us were very happy with the whole trip & your recommendations re the accommodation was excellent.
We felt that Gassan golf course was not in very good condition but it was still quite interesting, the highlight, and I think you could certainly recommend this, was the visit to the Tiger Kingdom in Chiangmai.
Well thanks again and look forward to you organising another trip for us.

Good morning Nena, Yim,
Well, we have just returned from our trip
Please allow me to thank you both for organising our best ever golf trip, we have travelled the world golfing for the past 12 years, and we have never experienced anything like this
From the moment I made contact with you by email until we departed our driver Ecki at the airport everything has been managed in a first class manor
From this point on I will recommend Golfasian to anybody who asks.
Please convey our thanks and gratitude to our driver Ecki, he was absolutely superb
We have decided already that we will be returning in 2011, so I will be in contact later in the year
If I organise flights & accommodation, could you organise golf and driver??
I look forward to your response and once again thank you very much .

Hi Jim,
Now that the dust has settled from our wonderful trip to Thailand, I've found 5 minutes to send you a quick mail.
I want to start by thanking you very very much for all your professional organising, especially I want to say thanks for the way you handled the issue of St. Andrews, I had a group of very unhappy golfers on my hands, and you managed to turn it around with a great result.
I would now like to thank "Rocky" how good is this man, always on time, sorted all the caddies, there when we finished, put the clubs away, drove quickly and safely everywhere - what a star.
So once again thanks very much Jim, I will have no hesitation recommending you should anybody ask about golf in Thailand.
By the way the lads have already started saying about next year, the only thing is they would prefer a quieter resort!! If you do have any ideas on prices for the same sort of deal but a quieter resort I would appreciate it.
Cheers

Hi Jim, Just back from a great golfing week in Pattaya. I wanted to write to you and thank you for your efforts, professional services ( Montri was great), and for providing us with a memorable golfing experience.
Standout for us was Siam Country club's Plantation course. We always play all of our golf from the tiger tees and this proved an admirable test to one and all at Plantation! 245 yard par 3 sensational!
Please feel free to give my details as a reference to anyone thinking of using your company for a trip to Thailand.
I will be in contact with you shortly, regarding the group's next golfing adventure in 2011.

Just wanted to say thanks for everything. Audra and I had a wonderful trip playing at Royal Ratchaburi and Black Mountain (one of the best courses I have ever played at). In addition, the hotline staff was very helpful when we made changes to our plan.
I'll make sure I tell my friends about Golfasian and next time we book a trip in the region, I'll be sure to call you.
Take care, Jon C.

Hey Mark
The trip was awesome!! Thanks for setting us up. All arrangements were great and all drivers on time or ahead of schedule. The courses were spectacular. Although it's hard to choose a favorite, the Red Mountain is something to see. All courses have their own character and personality and all are in pristine condition.
We went to Phuket and loved it. Great hotel, night life and great golf...not a bad combination.

Hallo Nena and hallo Yim,
We are now back in Stockholm, Sweden after a fantastic holiday in Saigon-Phan Thiet-Vietnam. We would like to thank you very much for your arrangements. And a special thanks to your guides. They where always in time, they kept us informed before they picked us up, they speak very good English, the guide´s know their history. One person whom we really would like to mentioning is Ngo Khanh. And the golf courses where fantastic.
We have recommended you to people we have met.
After Vietnam we went to Hua Hin for 17 days and visited the golfcourses there. And we love the people in Thailand.
Thank you from us all: Vanja and David who came from London and they send their regards and thank you.
Anita M. and Lars-Erik K. from Stockholm Sweden where we have a lot of snow.

Jim,
Just a quick note to say thanks to yourself and your whole team that made our holiday in Thailand a wonderful experience.
Everything was organized to perfection, the golf, the transfers, the hotels, even the additional round of golf I requested was dealt with in a professional and organized manor.
I would have no qualms in dealing with your company for my next trip to Thailand which, following my rave reviews of the courses played, maybe early next year and maybe as many as twenty people traveling.
Once again, many thanks and I look forward to getting in touch later in the year.

Carl and I loved the trip. The food was excellent, the accomodations couldn't have been any better. I was glad that everything was prepaid and feel that we certainly got our money's worth. The golf courses were beautiful and it was great meeting the "kids". It will be fun to support them when they come here and more fun for us because we have someone to cheer for. As you know, we are excited about planning another trip. That my husband loved the trip is probably the best testimony of all. I won't have to twist his arm next time! Thanks for your hard work.

Also I would like to be p/u a bit earlier on 2/4 say 9:30.
Once again, thanks. You plan well my friend.

Once again, thanks. You plan well my friend.

Hi Mark,
I (and the other 7 guys) had a great time on our Thailand golf trip. All the arrangements went without a hitch. Shah and Tuk were fantastic guides.
The 8 golf courses we played were great. I thought Red Mountain in Phuket was the best course we played. I especially liked Thai CC in Bangkok, since I made a hole in one!

Hi Mark
Just to say thank you for your hospitality and service which looking back was good overall. I will continue to book with Golfasian in the future. It would be good to meet and perhaps I will spend some time in Bangkok as I was only there for a couple of days this year.
Merry Christmas and a Happy new year to yourself and the rest of your family and looking forward to golfing in Thailand next year.

Dear Montri,
we thank you for your careful guiding and driving during our stay in Thailand. We always felt very sure sitting in your car!
The organization of all activities was super! The woodlands resort found our full approval, the Rose Garden Riverside hotel is not recommendable for golfers; the service could be better and the staff should be able to talk in simple English.
Should we come back to Thailand next winter we would like to be your guest again (and golfasian).

I'm delighted to say that the feedback I have received from everyone has been terrific, so many thanks to you both for your efforts.
What I would like to do is to put together a couple of escorted tours and seek your advice as to when you think the best time would be to do this. What about April and perhaps October?
Thanks again for all your assistance. Compliments of the season to you all!

I would just like to take this opportunity to congratulate you and your Team on a very well organized Golf Tour that we had in Hua Hin, Thailand.
Overall myself and all my Golfing Buddies from Scotland had fantastic time with excellent Golf every day. So needless to say we are all home now trying to rest and recover from the adventure. I will for sure have no problems in recommending your company to other colleagues here in Dubai who wish to visit Asia for Golf.
Please pass on our thanks to all the team involved in making our Golf trip very special.
I am now in the process of planning the 2010 tour and will be in touch soon.

Dear Yim,
Thank you very much for your email and your kind consideration for our last round of golf in Bangkok.
Tina,
Thank you for the phone call today and for the lunch!! My wife and I both appreciated it. We had a good tour with Sam today. He is an excellent guide and we learned a lot about the history of Chiang Mai and Thailand today from him. He has a very good knowledge of history of the country and can explain it well. The driver has confirmed that he is coming to pick us up tomorrow at 9 am to take us to the airport.
Many thanks to you and Yim for helping us and looking after us. Our Thailand tour is almost coming to an end. One last round of golf on Sunday and then a bit of rest on Monday and after that on Tuesday our flight back to Vancouver via Hong Kong. Do you by any chance know if we have to pay any departure tax when we leave Bangkok on next Tuesday? We paid $25 USD/person departure tax when we left Siam Reap.
Kind regards to all of you, Yim, Tina and Jim. I must say that GolfAsian looks after their clients!!

Mark,
I thoroughly enjoyed my 18 holes at the Dalat Palace Golf Course this past April. It was hot and steamy down in Saigon, but winding our way precariously up into the Central Highlands, I and the other made it in one piece, and the weather was nice the next day for my round of golf. I hardly shed a sweaty brow. The course was beautiful. My caddy was number one. He helped me with my amateurish game.
Thanks for your help in getting me a t-time .

Dear Jim,
I am now back in England and it's cold and very wet!!
I just wanted to drop you a line to say what a fantastic time I had in Thailand and how very impressed I was with the way your company organised my trip. Everything was just perfect, organised to perfection, all minor details taken care of and it made my stay very enjoyable. Both Noi and Rocky were perfect hosts. I must say I got to know Noi better as he collected me the majority of the time and we had a few rounds of golf together.
I was staggered by the quality of golf at a few places but disappointed with a few. I would like to give you some honest feedback on the courses I played and the facilities.
1. I started at Palm Hills. This was in my opinion a nice track, well presented and all in all a very good course. The club house was excellent and the golf was good. I would give this course a pretty high rating and would liked to have played it again. Great caddie.
2. Imperial Lakes was next. Lovely Clubhouse and superb facilities. Caddies were great and friendly and good at their job. The course was pretty good but unfortunately it was so wet that I felt it almost unplayable. I think had it not been so wet it would have been pretty good.
3. Springfield. Wow, what a fantastic place to play golf. I felt really well looked after. The Clubhouse was fantastic and the facilities superb. Great caddies and a nice touch at the end with a tray of ice cold water and cold towels as you came off the course. The golf was excellent and a fantastic design and quite tough especially the new 9.
4. Royal Hua Hin. This course when I played it was deserted. Obviously the oldest course in Thailand which was really well designed and had some great holes. Unfortunately the fairways hadn't been cut, the greens were poor and the tee boxes were scruffy and uncut. Really poorly maintained and a real shame as I felt had it been looked after properly it could be right up there. The refreshment huts were basic and a little shoddy. A real pity, but I still enjoyed myself.
5. Black Mountain. What can I say... utterly superb and one of the finest, well maintained and well laid out golf courses I have every played. Very tough from the black tees but very enjoyable. I played this twice and each time wanted to go and play it again. I just couldn't find any fault with the facilities or the course. It was like playing 6* golf.
6. Banyan. This echoes Black Mountain. Faultless and in perfect condition. Once again 6* golf.
I would rate the courses in the following order
Banyan & Black Mountain were difficult to seperate so joint number 1
Springfield a close second followed by Palm Hills and then Lake View
Royal Hua Hin was really a poor last.
I must say the golf is so different in Thailand. I hit a longish ball but there is no run even on the premier courses, so even though I played from the second back tees most of the time I was still hitting 3/4 irons into the greens for the second shot much of the time. The greens are incredibly quick, especially a downhill put and the ball just stops if you hit the front of the greens. A really different experience to what I'm used to but great all the same.
All in all it was a 5* holiday and I'm now deciding where to go next. I can't book flights yet but would appreciate if you could put together a provisional package with some costings for 2 weeks next year at the same time in Chaing Mai, as I have heard that the golf is also fantastic there.
Once again many thanks for organising a first class holiday for me and well done for running a very well oiled and slick business.
I look forward to hearing from you again
Kindest regards

Dear Mark,
it is almost two weeks after I got to know Steve as a golf teacher. I have to say, that it was a very good experience. He uses a slightly difference approach then my previous teacher in Bangkok by emphasising from the beginning the use of the big muscles around the hip to control the swing. In only one lesson on the driving range he corrected so many mistakes that I make.
Then during the two days on the Royal golf course I had a really good time. Steven is someone to give you the feeling, that golf should be enjoyed. And I did enjoy it largely.
I only hope, that there is more golf teachers out there like him....
With best regards

Back to reality now for a while, I'm afraid, but I'm already looking at opportunities for 2007.
The golf was well-arranged in Phuket & we will be sure to use GolfAsian again when we
play in Thailand.
Actually, to expand on what I have said before, I think that the biggest advantages of using
GolfAsian are that (1) you have a comprehensive knowledge of the golf courses and facilities, and
(2) you take the hassle out of booking golf. To us, (2) is the most important - when we are on
a short trip, we don't have the time to do this. We are quite capable of booking golf on our own,
as we are familiar with the region, but why bother when you provide such an efficient service?
To date, every time we have used GolfAsian, everything has worked as it should. We have
no complaints.
All the best - see you "next time"

Hey Mark,
We had a wonderful time in Thailand. The golf courses were great, some were a bit more challenging than others. It was my personal favorite part of our tour (since it was a golfing holiday after all). We all found "Blue Canyon" in Phuket to be the most beautiful and well kept of all the courses. Gassan Khuntan in Chiang Mai was the most challenging, although not in the best of shape (because its a very new course). It will be amazing in 5 years. Loch Palm was another favorite. For the most part all of the caddies were very good.Those poor girls at Blue Canyon had to carry our clubs as they don't allow pull carts or drive carts! Golf is now over for us until next May. It was 0C when we got to Montreal and it snowed yesterday!!!
The organized tours were great, especially the elephant riding tour. We added a tour of a snake farm and a tour of village of four tribes. We saw the long neck people,all enjoyed it very much, and took amazing photos. It was on the way back from the elephant tour.
As for the guide/driver teams, Montri was good and quite entertaining. We found Cha and Wat in Chiang Mai very courteous, efficient and very knowledgeable. We would recommend using this team again.
Thanks for all your (and your team) hard work organizing our trip. We were all very pleased with the service we received. We would not hesitate to recommend your agency to anyone who is going to Thailand for golf.

Mark,
I must say that was the most smoothest golf trip I have had everything was perfect and importantly everyone was happy. Excellent service and I must say that Montri was an excellent guide and I hope I can have him again if we come back next year.
I will send you the photos as promised.
Many Thanks

I just arrived well in Los Angeles and wanted to take a second to write you in thanks for all that you did in facilitating a wonderful trip for me.
Thailand was absolutely what Steve and I needed to recharge our batteries.
Please tell Gop we enjoyed his services and Steve personally thanks him..
Be good Mark. Give you family my regards and know that I will do everything over here in California to refer the services of GolfAsian.
God bless you,

Dear Mark,
So glad we came to Thailand with your company again and we had the chance to meet you and your wife. We really had a great time!
Everybody enjoyed the vacation and in their name I´d like to thank you for the organization of a great time.
My nephew loved so much, he didn't want to go home. He was like a fish in the pool and riding a Tuk Tuk! My mom loved the people, the weather, the beach, everything... it was perfect for all of us.
We keep in touch and see you in Feb. for more Golf action!
Last Sunday I played a round with my friend, the vacation apparently worked for my score!
Thanks again for the special treatment
Say hello to Nat and Mathew

Hi Mark,
I was going to e mail you but I guess you beat me to it.
At Hua Hin,we had a lovely time. Bob, the English man, recommended us to have our dinner at Itsara, a thai restaurant by the beach. We also ventured down by the beach of the Hyatt and discovered a restaurant "Let's Sea" next to WoraBora. As for golf, the guys rated Springfield as the best out of the three. Oh, it made a lot of difference to us to have a native English speaker as a guide. We get a better overview of the place.
What a thoughtful suggestion - it will be an honour to have dinner next time with your family.
Warmest regards from all of us.

Sawadee Khap Khun Mark,
The G2 Farewell event was a tremendous success. I received feedback from everybody who joined and all expressed their enjoyment good feeling about the tour arrangements. Well done to Golfasian; to you, Montri, Ms Nan, Ms Tle and others who worked behind the scene, to make the event a memorable one. Please pass my warm regards to them. We had 4 splendid rounds of golf, at top-notch courses, namely The Alpine, Thai Country Club, St Andrews2000 and Laem Chabang. The groundwork support provided by Golfasian staff at the golf and accommodation venues were invaluable, making the total cost of the tour very good value for money. Further our guys like Arief couldn't believe that he actually got some refunds on the cancellations made, as necessitated by an urgent business obligation. And as you are aware, our colleague Bahreen, is now using Golfasian to help organise some business golf with our corporate customers this week in Chiangmai.
Wow, we are the 5000th customer for Golfasian. Indeed that is a significant (and perhaps auspicious) milestone. Heartiest congratulations and may Golfasian continue its success and deliver a service that goes beyond the expectation of customers. As a satisfied customer, I will allow you to requote my remarks, mention my name and job designation.
Warm regards

Hi John,
Well we are all back in Australia after our weeks golf in Thailand. I felt I must let you know how pleased we all were with the service and organisation from Golf Asian. Your representative, Montri, was superb and made the week so easy to enjoy. His patience, understanding and organisation was first class and nothing was too much trouble for him. Please pass on our thanks to him. The courses were very good, Laem Chabang especially, with the exception of Eastern Star, which looked like they had experienced a chemical spraying problem. The caddies were fantastic and we really had a laugh with them...seems strange now playing without one...!!! Special thanks for the plentiful beer supply for the Bangkok - Pattaya trip...made it a lot more bearable. We normally plan a trip each year and rest assured if Thailand is the venue it will be Golf Asian that we will be booking with. We will also pass on the good word regarding Golf Asian around all the Golf Clubs here in Perth.
Thanks again and if you are ever in Perth please come down for a game...it will be a pleasure to host you.
Kind Regards and hope to do future business.

Dear John,
Thanks very much for the golf package covering Pattaya and Bangkok. In spite of us considering other good choices like Chiang Mai, Hua Hin, and Phuket, I am glad we ended up in Pattaya. I think the golf and the night life were superb. As for our golf, the fairways at Sri Racha were not so great, but except for that, all the other courses, club houses, and facilities within were excellent.
Both the drivers and guides, Pitak in Pattaya and Montri in Bangkok were very much helpful and kept perfect timing.
All in all it was a fantastic golfing holiday and look forward to another one next year.
Thanks once again.

It is no problem to use our photo and our comment because we appreciate your good service (Mr Montri too). But the photo is not too good because it is not very clear.
Even if my group planning is not successful, my wife and myself will still come to BKK in April to play at the Thai Country Club, and 2 others which we have not played before. I too hope I will meet you in person.

Hi Mark,
Ged and I had another good day at Thai CC yesterday with Montri. We got paired with a nice member and ended up playing as a thee-ball and just finishing an enjoyable round with the fading light. The caddies were of a very high standard and had the sense of humor that could make a sailor blush... I hope to finish this project by the end of February 06 and will be ready for a nice break after a month in India I am sure. Thailand is my favorite destination so I am sure you will see my name pop up on the booking again. Please keep up the great work in terms of booking arrangements!

Thanks for the follow-up.
I had always heard that Thailand was Great but I wasn’t quite prepared how Great. Suffices to say that I can’t wait to come back; I want to at the very least make it an annual trip & I have even looked up a couple of job opportunities in Bangkok on the web. The trip sparked an interest in Thailand and Southeast Asia which I am sure will last. In addition, everything which was planned by Golfasian worked out perfectly and I sincerely appreciate all the hard work by your staff. The golf courses and people in Phuket were great although next year I want to tilt my trip more towards instruction as my game needs some serious work, but that is a year away. I look forward to using you services again.
Best Regards and Happy New Year!
Sincerely,
Mark, USA

Dear Nan,
Now that we are back in Scotland, we wanted to let you know how much the guys enjoyed our trip to Thailand. Phuket was beautiful and the golf at Blue Canyon was second to none. Everything now was even better than before last year’s Tsunami. The arrangements all ran like clockwork. Your driver was on or ahead of schedule and the big van he came in each day better than being chauffeured around in a private limousine. Next year we want to come back and try a different city like Hua Hin or Chiang Mai. We will definitely book again with Golfasian…
Cheers,

I am so glad we chose Golfasian for our recent holiday. You were right when you explained to us about working with the "Leading Golf Travel Company in Thailand". At first it was hard to appreciate the value of good service, but after seeing how our friends trip was so poorly organized it was most re-assuring to know that we went with experts. As your emails noted and your prompt, accurate replies to our enquiries led us to believe, that it does pay to go with the best. Every day your driver turned up as scheduled and our golf went as planned. If we only had more time available to stay in your beautiful country, we would have loved our holiday even more. OK for now, back to the cold, but one thing for sure, SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!
Best regards

Thank you very much for spending your personal time with us during our stay in Thailand. It was a pleasure to meet you and play golf together. Please give our regards to your staff who also were helpful and made our most recent holiday most enjoyable. All of the golfing arrangements handled with utmost professionalism. Your staff replies were the fastest among all of the operators we contacted and the information contained in your offer exactly matched our requirements. The recommended courses turned out to be just what we were looking for and a highlight of our trip. The Subhapruek course was the real stand out gem and without your staff’s recommendation we would not have even requested it. We will be back in around 6 months time and will definitely be using your companies services again. Next time you have to let us buy the drinks.
Cheers,

Dear John,
As a beginner golfer I was always scared to go along with my friends to the course or range for fear of embarrassment. Now after I have returned from my one week instruction course with you, I feel more confident about my golf and am ready to play for real. Yesterday I went out with my friends to hit some balls and my drives as good as my colleagues. Tomorrow, we plan to go on the course and I will let you know how it turns out.
Anyway, I wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed my holiday in Thailand and the golf lessons with you each day was the best decision I ever made. If it is OK, I want to plan another trip in six months time and move on to the next level of coaching. Can you let me know what you suggest?

Hi Yim,
Sorry should have got back to you sooner.
The trip was FAB. You arranged everything perfectly. Hotel was great, perfect location- and I loved it because it was a more personal one rather than the big Intercons etc. It was clean and pleasant with helpful staff.
The courses were fun to play too.
Can't thank you enough for your professional organisiation.
Will definately tell our friends about you and surely use you again. Do you do the same trips to China Mission Hills, just hotel, transport to hotel and golf courses organised please.
Thanks a million again.
Kindest regards,

Hi everyone,
Firstly, I would like to thank all concern for the prompt reply and changes and finally we had a great time in Chiang Mai.
Your van pick-up service was excellent (Kun Sompong) and he knows his way around and very punctual and accommodating. Excellent service!
My friends and I are quite impressed with the golf courses though we didn't complete the round at Mae Jo Golf Clubon Day 1. Its nobody's fault as our airline was delayed by 1 hour. We called to make the changes and was pleasantly surprised that everything was changed easily, even pick up from airport to golf club instead of hotel.
I have recommended some friends to use your web site to make online golf booking for their future holidays in Thailand. This has become our yearly ritual in December as the weather is nice in Thailand this time of the year.
Once again, I congratulate Golfasian for the good service and attractive prices for the golf package.

We will certainly be back to Thailand and for sure we will use your expertise to help us organize our trip.

I would just like to thank you and golfasian for a well organized weekend. We had a great weekend playing golf on two really beautiful golf courses. The hotel was first class with everyone in our group happy.
A special thank you to your two drivers who looked after us well.
We will certainly be back to Thailand and for sure we will use your expertise to help us organize our trip.
Thank you so much and best regards

Dear Ms Yim,
My friend Les Owens rang me from Australia where he went after his golfing tour of Thailand and a week in Hong Kong. He asked me to express to you and Mark Siegel his entire satisfaction with his visit to Thailand and the arrangements you made for him. Both his wife and him were captivated with you country and will return. They will use your services again and will recommend you to anyone who wants to visit Thailand.
Well done!!

Hi Jim,
We made use of Golfasian's services in undertaking the ten day golfing package to Pattaya. We arrived back home yesterday and I thought you might enjoy hearing our comments.
Your Ms.Anongnart Sooksasit did indeed do a stellar job of arranging the holiday. From my first communication to the receipt of a neat folder at our arrival at the hotel everything was handled in a neat competent and concise manner for which I think she should be congratulated. I have been on a number of overseas tours and hers was definetely the best effort I have ever experienced. Ten out of ten for the efficiency !
The driver who transported us to the various golf courses, a certain Mr Sittichai was excellent. He was skillful,smooth , punctual, and friendly. Could you perhaps convey our appreciation to him, he was really outstanding.
As far as the golf is concerned I must perhaps provide you with some facts about us for you to gain a better perspective. My wife and I are both 69 years of age but rather fit since we play 18 holes virtually every day on foot and toting our own bags. My wife plays off a 9 and I off a 4 handicap We have , further , played on a number of courses and should be in a good position to comment on the courses we played during the holiday there.
The quality of the courses are outstanding both in conditioning and the challenge they provide - they are outstanding. The way in which the sequence in which the courses are played was constructed , gradually working up to a crescendo at Laem Chabang, is to be commended.
We had a wonderful time and wish to thank you and your staff for your efforts in making it possible.
Kind regards.

Dear Mark,
We are back home after a most enjoyable golfing trip to Pattaya after which we visited China.
I must say that we really enjoyed the trip, enjoyed Pattaya and enjoyed the golf!
We played Khao Kheow and Laem Chabang. Khao Kheow was not such a good choice, not really in good condition, but we absolutely enjoyed Laem Chabang! All the arrangements were without any problems and the choice of the Mercure Hotel was also excellent, especially for “eldery” people like my wife and I. We have decided that this will not be our last golfing holiday to Thailand and will probably try to come again in November next year.
Thank you for the excellent arrangements, we will recommend you to our friends !
Kind regards,

Just a note to thank you for the great vacation package to Thailand. Your choice of hotels was excellent, also the choice of golf courses were superb. There was one that wasn't up to par and that was Mission Hills (Kanchanaburi), but overall the rest were great. The guide that you had supplied (Sophia) was excellent, as she was well informed in the history and was very good at explaining as much as she could to us. The meal we had by the river on Sunday evening was great. Last but not least was your man Montri, he was what made the trip most enjoyable. Always prompt with everything ready for us. He went way beyond his duties by ensuring cold water was available every morning. Again thank you for the great choices of ambassadors, Montri and Sophia. I hope to do this trip again next year.

Hi Jim,
Yes, you can use me as a reference.
I did enjoy my trip and have to say Golfasian did a great job. I would say it was your staff that really made the difference as they were all very professional. Excellent phone skills and drivers.
Now...what would I change?
Nothing on the part of my trip in Bangkok...good hotel, excellent driver, perfect golf courses (Alpine and Thai CC = hard to go wrong there).
Pattaya however...was a little disappointing. I will not use this same hotel again. You mentioned on the phone that they are all a little less in Pattaya as compared to Bangkok .
I was happy that every course was very accommodating in partnering me with other golfers. I played with some Britts (twice), Finns, Swedes, a Japanese gentlemen and three very nice Thai ladies (turned out to be good golfers). My being a lone golfer wasn't a problem anywhere. I simply asked the starter to send me out with someone.
I enjoyed our round and will definitely do this again.
Well done,

Good Day Mark:
Well Sir, another year has come and gone and another great golf vacation has been completed. The group and I have nothing but kudos for you and the staff and Golfasian. Starting with the greeting at the airport, the Sunday evening dinner, all the great golf and ending with the teary departure. It was top notch all the way. We have been back since November the 11th and already 5 of the 8 have confirmed for next year. Looks like you have created a monster. Again our thanks for a great vacation and we look forward to repeating it again next year. Should anyone wish to contact me they may feel free.
With best wishes to all the staff.

Thanks for everything.

Mark,
I am writing in response to our parties recent visit to Pattaya in late october , we have been treated to a wonderful time, thanks in no part to your companies excellent organisation and knowledge. The Mercure Hotel in Pattaya was an excellent base and the hospitality and service there was second to none!
Many thanks to your unstinting drivers, who negotiated the traffic in Pattaya both in the mornings and early evenings with skill and bucketloads of patience. We always arrived at the golf courses in plenty of time and the airport transfers were slick and without incident.The golf booking in process went without a hitch and the courses we played were all enjoyable (especially Laem Chabang! top course, the best caddies!!)
Everyone commented on how well everything went, praising me the organiser, but i know that all the groundwork was done by your team in Thailand from yourself, Yim and the drivers. My thanks to the girl whose name escapes me, for handling the airport situation with all the patience of a saint, plus having to ride to Pattaya!! many thanks again to her!
To round things up, my thanks to you and all your staff at Asian Golf for making our first trip to Asia such a memorable one!!
I'm sure we'll be back!!

Hi Jim
Just to say thanks for an awesome week of golf.
Yoon was really good and early for both pick ups and a top guy. As for courses, given how wet they were underfoot, it made it tough as no run at all and sometimes struggled to hit fairway off the tee a few times, even straight (which I invariably am). Grass types were not conducive to long hits and greens were slow at Pinehurst, Summit, and Windsor. But Suwan and Bangkok courses were brilliant. Despite the rain, the greens were hard and fast on both, and Suwan even had run on fairways too. We only had one 5 hour round at Windsor which was a nice course but so busy, but had 3 hour round at Bangkok playing as twosome and 3 1/2 hours at Summit.
All in all, it was a great time and wish we were still there !!!!
Thanks,

I am now back in Manila and I would just like you to know that we had a wonderful time in Bangkok this weekend. From the pick up at our hotel to going back, my friend and I had a very pleasant time. The van was very clean and well driven. Our driver, Mr Sornram was very polite and well trained. The 2 courses we played at were lovely specially Thai Country Club which had a magnificent clubhouse. Summit Windmill was a bit crowded but the food was excellent. We look forward to booking with you again on our next trip to Bangkok.

Hi Mark,
Thanks very much for setting this up, especially on short notice. I had an excellent time in Bangkok and enjoyed some great golf. The fact that you came up with an actual set of Big Berthas was even more impressive.
The courses were great. I particularly enjoyed Muang Kaew, where my caddie gave me a massage. Subhapruek and Lam Luk Ka were great as well, and Bangpoo was a good place to start out--not too tough, but good vistas.
Thanks again, and if/when I get back to Thailand, you will be getting another reservation request.

Hi Mark and Yui,
Well I have finally recoverd from my flights home and thought I would drop you a line with my thoughts abot the trip .
The trip went perfectly smoothly. The drivers were on time and there were no delays in the pickups or meeting at the airport. The hotels were fine for my purposes. The Ambassador was jsut adequate but I understand the tower is going to be closed for renovation shortly. It was in a tourist location and I enjoyed the street traffic and all the commotion going on. My only question is how do all of the pushcarts, stalls, stores, vendors and anybody else out there, make a living? The Felix Resort was jsut lovely and I enjoyed it thoroughly. I am glad I went to see the Bridge. Karinthrip Vilage was fine and in a good location. Mark, you were right about staying there as opposed to being out of the town center. Angkor Hotel in Siem Reap was also fine. As long as the air conditioning and hot water worked I was happy. As for the golf, the choices we settled on were great. I would have been happier if I had played better, and I hadn't broken the head off my driver, but the heat really affected me. By the last round I was hitting the ball and now I want to come back and try again I am glad I was able to play Alpine and Navatanee. They would be great courses anywhere. I was also happy that I substituted some sight seeing for golf. To travel all that way and not learn something of the countries I was visiting for the first time did not seem right. I really enjoyed the food. Chicken skewers on the street for 10 baht was an absolute bargain. I visited Chbinatown one night and had a delicious meal. I was trying to find a certain restaurant (Lek) but nobody knew where it was so I went to Scala. A special thanks to my main driver Kop. He was helpful at all times and took care of me at the golf courses and he was always on time and unfailingly polite. He made sure that they took care of me at Royal Rachaburi.. I appreciate all the time and effort he put in. Please thank him again for me. The only suggestion that I have would be for people coming from the US. I would suggest that the first day in Thailand not be a golf day. I think a day to get used to the climate would be useful. By and large, I had a great time. I rode the Skytrain, a tuk-tuk and a motorbike. I visited places that I had only read about and never thought that i would see. It all went well and I will only have positive memories of the trip. I would not hesitate to recommend your company to anyone going to Thailand to play golf. Please feel free to use any of what i have said in your advertising.

Hi! I checked another website and it seems there are inconsistencies in terms of green fees. Anyway, thank you for the complimentary upgrade. I am really happy with your services. I had emailed another agency but proceeded to book with you. I thought I should let you know.
With the good services you rendered to me, I will not hesitate to refer you to friends who will plan to take a golf package in Bangkok . My way of showing appreciation to you.
Thank you again!

Dear all,
We safely arrived in France last saterday.
Pls find hereunder our feedback concerning our golfing in Thailand, from April 15 to April 28 :
1- Golf courses :
In general, all the 9 different courses are nice and good.
Tee times are O.K., accept for the Lanna Golf course : we should play at our arrival at Chiang Mai on Thursday April 19 instead of Saterday April 21, because on Saterday, there are so many poeple at this golf course which seems more popular (like a public Golf Couse) ; before us, there were 6 golfers who play together. It's the first time we saw 6 golfers playing at the same time. Everywhere, the max. number is 4! In addition, they did not have a golf cart, therefore we had to wait for a long time.
2- Hotels :
- Marriot at BK : good
- Holliday Inn in Chiang Mai : good
- Dusit Laguna at Phuket : very good
- Mandarin Oriental at BK : excellent
3- Services
-Driver (Kob) is the best one, for our 2 stays in BK. He was very kind, always ready to help us ( an excellent guide for us at BK, he knows everything !). We appreciated so much his kindness and avaibility.
In general, we are satisfied with our Golfing Travel in Thailand with your Company. Above all, we appreciated so much your driver KOB in BK.
Of course, we will no doubt to recommend Golfasian to our friends.
We intend to play in Malaysia next December/ January. I'll contact you, if you also work for that country.

Just a note to thank you and all at Golf Asian for a very enjoyable holiday playing some fine courses both in Chiang Mai and Pattaya. The highlight was undoubtedly the wonderful course Chiang Mai Highlands, but all were beyond our expectations.Thank you once again ,we will surely recommend you to our friends and will use your services should we visit the area again.

Hi there,
We had a wonderful trip and really enjoyed the golf courses that you chose for us.We found the golf in Chiang Mai and Bangkok really enjoyable and challenging. The mistake made by us was in the name of the Bangkok golf and country club as opposed to the Royal Bangkok golf club which was recommended to us !! It was the only mediocre course we played . .
We absolutely loved the Gassan Khuntan golf club and would actually consider spending a few days at that resort next time.
The pick ups from the airport went relatively well. A few glitches which were eventually worked out so no complaints!
Transportation was mostly in vans and very nice and spacious .The staff working with us were always on time, pleasant and professional.
We loved the hotels and were especially happy that we ended up at the Royal Princess and it gave us immediate access to the street with lots of life around.
Thank you for making excellent arrangements.We would certainly recommend your company to friends traveling to Thailand and we would use it again ourselves.
Best wishes Jay Naidoo, Canada

Now that I am safely back from my golfing holiday in Thailand, I wanted to write and thank you for arranging everything so well. Perhaps the best recommendation I can make is that I will put you top of my list for arranging a new golfing holiday next year.
I was very pleased with the accomodation at the Royal Princess hotel. The room was large and ample, with every extra being thoughtfully provided. Above all the hotel staff were all delightfully friendly and helpful.
The golf courses themselves were all really excellent apart perhaps from Lanna Sports and Gassan Marina, which will be very good by next year but at present is still being constructed. Clubs with a good starter and course marshall like the Royal Chiang Mai, Highlands and Gassan Khutan tend to let you start from differnet parts of the course to ensure you are not held up. One final comment; Gassan Khutan and Gassan Lake City are particularly hard for a high handicap golfer like myself (I play off 22) and I lost a lot of balls in the water on those courses. However, I was able to buy old used golf balls at 8 for 100 bahts so it was not too expensive when I made a poor shot and lost a ball!
To conclude, I would happily play all the courses again another year, except perhaps for Lanna; and I would make my top choices Highlands, Royal Chiang Mai, Chiang Mai Lamphun, and Mae Jo and Chiang Mai Green Valley when they are not too busy.
Thank you once again for an excellent service,
Yours sincerely,

Dear Mark :
would like to say thank you to you and your staff for organizing our recent golf vacation . Everyone in our group agreed that this Thailand golf trip was the best vacation we have ever taken. In my opinion your company is well ahead of your competitors and is certainly the best I have ever dealt with in organizing multi-city golf trips .
Your personal knowledge about golfing in Thailand was invaluable to making then initial trip plans and selecting golf courses that even exceed what we had expected. Yui and her team were always available either on site of by telephone to help out and I can not say enough about them. We especially like the side trips Yui suggested and organized for us in Kanchanaburi and Chiang Mai. The Tiger temple in River Kwai and Chiang Mai hill tribe visits were a nice break from our daily golf routine and made the whole trip that much more spectacular. Of course golf was the focus of our trip and we most enjoyed playing at Alpine in Bangkok, Royal Ratchaburi in River Kwai and Highlands in Chiang Mai. All three courses were the best in each location and we will be including then on our trip next year as well.
You have some incredible people working with you that provide service above and beyond anything any of us ever expected. Please pas on our thanks to the entire GolfAsian team and let them know we will be thinking about them throughout the year. I already can not wait to get back to Thailand for nest years trip. By the way, you mentioned that you could arrange a side trip to Cambodia for some of our group. Please make sure to include this option in next years program as we really like the idea of combining golf with history and culture into one vacation.
Once again THANK YOU GOLFASIAN, KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!

The Golf at the Thai Country Club/Bangkok yesterday was phantastic, and your service excellent.
The driver was a perfect one, who had driven us with safety and education. Perfect person perhaps for another job than only to be a driver. Check-this from time to time.
Thanks for everything, we leave now for Europe, but in 1 o 2 years we wil lcome back with our golf-friends-group and then we will come back to need your services again.

Hi,
Peter and Silachai, I just wanted to let you know that the golf tour went very well and feedback from attendees was very positive. We took 14 players and 10 of those have indicated they would return next year with friends so I am hopeful our objective to build the tournament up over the next few years to over 100 players is achievable. We have tentavily booked the same dates with Golf Asian holidays for 2010 with some slight changes to the itinerary.
Some of the quotes we got back from attendees were:
"Impressed with how everything ran smoothly, I thoroughly enjoyed every golf course I played on in every aspect, caddies, scenery, difficulty & hospitality, job well done thank you for at this stage in my life the trip of a life time!" Stuart Adams
"The trip flowed like clockwork everything & everyone was looked after, the hosts were excellent always providing water & a nice air conditioned bus and the courses where excellent " Darren Miles
"Courses were all great. Would love to play these courses again Hosts were very friendly and courteous. Good quality vehicles" Barry Roberston
Thank you for your support and I look forward to working with you again soon.

Jim,
Just thought I would drop you a quick line to thank you and your team for organizing my trip last week in Pattaya.
I had such a wonderful time, the Frasor Resort Hotel was marvelous, one you should add to your list for Pattaya. I was surprised how cheap it is in Thailand
Your man Mondri took very good care of Me in transporting me to the six courses that had been arranged, he was very polite and helpful.We were lucky with the weather except one day which was wet and different. I was very impressed with the design and beauty of the courses, challenging as well.
The package folder was helpful although I might suggest that course yardage books would be helpful to go along with your other booklets and maps.
Anyway already thinking about next year’s holiday.
Thanks again, see you next year

Dear Mark,
I take this opportunity to thank you, Nena, Yim and all those involved in providing us with a wonderful golf vacation. We had a great time. You guys did a good job of giving us satisfactory accomodation and very enjoyable course with well behaved and considerate chauffeurs for the transfers. It was very kind of you to have sent us the pack of balls as a gift and is truly appreciated.
I went through the thai article promoting golf and have let you know that it is quite informative and will be useful in promoting golf tourism. i have had the opportunity of playing in all the 5 major regions mentioned there and think the potrayal to be quite accurate particularly the weather.
Thanks once again and look forward to more trips in the future and also of meeting you in person.
Warmest regards.

Hi Yim,
I just returned from Pattaya with my friends after our 7 days of golf. I am very very pleased with your services. The hotel was great (great location, clean, friendly staff, nice amenities), golf courses were great (the only negative was Emerald Course...poorly maintained. Loved the Siam courses). Our driver Rocky was a gentleman among men. He was always on time, made sure we had our caddies sorted at the golf courses and his eagerness to provide great service made us very relaxed.
I will be using Golfasian again.

By now you should have been given feedback from Chiang Mai team that we have enjoyed our golfing expedition in Chiang Mai. Your ground crew are friendly and informative and we are appreciative of the services your company has rendered.
We just want to ask if your company caters for similar golf package tour arrangement for Indonesia. Bandung is the next destination. If not, can you give a recommendation of similar agency who is trustworthy and does not charge through the nose.

Dear Jim,
Once again I thank you for arranging such a nice week for our group. Everything was perfect. Ekkie (is that how you spell it) was a great driver as well as very helpful sorting out Jacques problem on the late delivery of some shirts he had made.
Of course there can only be one winner and that was me shooting a 74 gross at Thai Country Club on the last day.
Once again thank you for the great week and here’s to November 2009.

Hi Yim,
Firstly I wanted to thank yourself/Mark and your team for a wonderful trip.
The entire party had a great time, the courses were great and the support team was excellent. The groups already talking about going back!
Secondly I was wondering if you are able to send through the invoice for Mr Chia King Hong again (as I have been having some email problems since last week).
Again really appreciate the entire team at Golfasian and we'll be back.

Hi Jim
I wanted to thank you so much for arranging great hotels and the tours for us in Thailand. The Dream Hotel was just fantastic and was definately the type of Hotel that Harvey and I appreciate. The tours you chose for us were fabulous, I was hesitant given I had just had major surgery, and wondered if I would even go on the tours. I definately would not have missed anyof them. THANKS SO MUCH!
Jim I wanted to give you some feedback on the people who drove us, toured us etc.
First of all, Chuli---she made our stay in Bangkok so memorable. Her command of the English language was very good and we could understand her fully. Not only that, but she was truly interested in us and was very social. She told us every little detail as we travelled to our tour, and she made sure she pointed out every little thing that she thought would interest us. SHE WAS AN ABSOLUTE GEM!!! She never stopped talking and we loved her to pieces. She taught us how to write our names in Thai, and wrote us the most beautiful card with a terrific message in it. On the flap she wrote "Please smile before opening". She does truly need to be rewarded for being an exceptional tour guide. She made your Company look terrific!!!! The driver, whose name escapes me, was also delightful-very polite, happy, very good driver, and as social as he could be given there was somewhat of a language barrier. A real gentleman. Arrived at the hotel long before he needed to, and waited so patiently, always smiling. Highly recommend both of these people.
Then there was Jittima--she too was very social and tried very hard to give us as much information along the way as she could. Difficult to understand, but nonetheless a great little tour guide. She struggled with expressing some things, but tried so hard, and made a big effort to communicate. Jittima took pictures of us, made sure I was OK on stairs, just a real caring little lady. She had a very "warm" personality and we felt like we knew her for years! She too deserves to be acknowledged for her efforts, and would definately have her as my tour guide again.
Overall Jim, the trip was fantastic, and we are looking to come back next year. We are planning on stopping on our way to India, so may be looking to you to provide great accomodation and tours again at that time.We definately will have much more time next year to stay longer. This year it was the USA, Guatemala, then Thailand, and our holidays were pretty much used up. We were sorry we didn't get a chance to have coffee with you as we had planned---kind of forgot I guess.---but maybe next time. We had a blast at the Siam Paragon, Robinsons down from our hotel, MBK(not sure I have that right) shopping centre, night markets, ---wish we were back there!
Thanks so much for the effort you and your group put into making our flights so easy, our tours so enjoyable and our trip so positive.

Hi Jim, A short note to say thanks for providing us a great vacation.
Your arrangements were first class, your drivers were prompt without exception, as well as friendly and professional.
Your recommendation of the Wora Bura was first class and my wife enjoyed the Spa (THREE times)
The golf courses were great and we were only sorry we could not make the final day of golf due to too much partying the night before !
And to think when we landed at Bangkok Thai Customs "shafted" us for $539 and we were ready to get on the plane and go straight back home.
We are glad we didn’t and stayed to have a great time.
Again thanks to you and your staff and we will definitely take advantage of your services again.
We highly recommend anyone considering a golfing vacation to use GolfAsian, they wont be disappointed and neither were we.
Best regards from my Wife and myself

Dear Jim
Yesterday I got from my/our customer Mrs. Grüter a report about their recent holidays in Vietnam.
The group enjoyed the trip very much, appreciated the wonderful Golf courses, was satisfied with the Hotels - especially the one in Phan Thiet.
They liked very much the german speaking guides and they welcomed the fast reaction after the amendment with the transfer to the airport.
All in all, the groupe was very positive about their stay and the organization by your company.
Hope to work together with you also in the future (even if you would be boss of the Chiang Mai-operations!).
Kind regards

Hi Mark,
Hope you are keeping well, thanks for your recent E-mail.
As for myself I am just recovering from 2 wonderful weeks golf in the Pattaya area , organised by Golf Asian.
I was part of the group of 16 members from Athenry Golf Club. Athenry, Co Galway. Ireland. This trip was organised by Mr John Greaney through your good self.
We played some wonderfull courses on this trip like Laem Chabang, Burapha, Siam, etc.
Our trip Guide "Montry" (I think was his name ) was so helpful in every way, his timekeeping, pleasant manner, and knowledge of all things Thai was a pleasure to behold. Please pass on our thanks to him for the way he treated us
However one small problem we encountered at customs at Bangkok Airport upset some of our travelling party a little bit.
Overall a wonderful golfing trip, this was fifth time in the Pattaya area , am looking forward to my next trip if not next year certainly in 2 years time.
Again many thanks.

Hi Jim,
Just wanted to let you know that everything went off without a hitch. We all got back to Honolulu on Sunday morning safe and sound. My group was really happy with the golf courses and promptness of your driver. Already they are talking about a return trip some where in the future. Of course we know how hard it is to get all schedules all together so that they coincide. Now couple are talking about another Thailand golf outing.
I gave your driver a box of chocolate covered macadamia nuts for your enjoyment... hope you enjoyed it....Again a big Mahalo (a Hawaiian thankyou),

Eve/Mark,
Thank you for all of the assistance given during our golf day while in Bangkok. The level of service provided by everyone, from the initial enquiry through to the facilitation during the day was outstanding. It was a pity I didn't play as well as the course deserved.
I cannot compliment your company enough on how it goes about its business and I will be recommending your services to the golfing fraternity within the AFP and will use your services the next time I travel to play golf in Asia.
Thanks again for facilitating a wonderful day for my wife and I
best regards.

Jim, I want to thank you for a good set of courses and the transportation arrangements. I have to say though that the greens were murderously fast!
On another very positive note, the Golf Asia driver, Ak e , was superb. He anticipated our requirements, was always on time, was knowledgeable, and just an all around great guy. He communicated well, was polite, and enormously helpful. In fact, when he found the McKinney’s camera in his van after dropping us off at the Sheraton Sukhumvit, he immediately called me to let me know he had found it and then delivered it to the hotel the next day.

Hi Mark and Jim,
just a few words to thank you both for your kind personal hospitality, and for the efficient way in which my golf trip was organised.
The courses Jim selected around Bangkok were exceptional, and I thouroughly enjoyed them, as well as Mark's company on one of them!
Whilst in Thailand, I made several last minute changes to my golf schedule, and Jim was able to quickly accomodate my requests with no problem; a truly personalised service!
All pick up times were respected punctually, and drivers were polite, efficient and helpful.
I will certainly use your company for any future visits, and will strongly recommend to any friends travelling to Asia to do likewise.
Many thanks once again,
Best regards,

By the way Mark,
I'm not sure if I mentioned this after the last trip but we had an absolutely fabulous time and our driver/guide Montri was excellent..
We have been recomending your agency to all our golfing friends here and are assured to book via Golf Asian whenever planning a golf trip.

Jim,
My apologies. I did not get your email until I got home last night - far too late to respond usefully to your questions I'm sure. Anyway, here goes....
Sorry we did not get together for a round while I was in Chiang Mai. I had a great time as always; at first it was all very quiet probably because of the airport problems and political uncertainties at the end of last year. But it all picked up by the end of the month when the courses were as busy as ever. You were right about Alpine - they have really made something special from the old Chiang Mai Lamphun course. The facilities are much better and the new course layout is excellent. Highlands was as good as ever and I enjoyed my round at Gassan Khuntan even though it is much further from Chiang Mai than the other courses. The weather was really excellent; always hot but not too hot, not humid and always dry.
You asked me about Royal Chiang Mai. I was really surprised to hear that you have had some mixed reports about it; I always like Royal Chiang Mai and it has never occurred to me that the fairways are less than excellent. They are not manicured like an American golf course but then I like that. Golf can become too "artificial" if the course does not feel natural.
So next year I will be very pleased to go to all the courses I went to this year, or any of the others you feel have now come up to scratch, such as Gassan Lake City and Gassan Marina if they have, and Green Valley if it is no longer taking too many bookings and playing six hour rounds.

Hi Kuhn Bee,
Thanks for organising our golf today at The Vintage Club. We really enjoyed it.
After we had sorted out our games we both played to our handicaps on the back nine.
The transport was perfect and we had plenty of time to get ready.
Hoping to have another holiday next year in Thailand - if we have any money left!
Best wishes,
Jean and Tony Sumner

Jim,
a few comments on the Hua Hin golf courses:
Nichigo: that was a good way to start our golf tour with this very nice course. A little disappointment was that no other food but industrial noodles were available on the course (don’t they produce fruits in Thailand?). Also the club house is not at par with what we are used to in Thailand, although acceptable.
Rachaburi Royal: Very nice course, both challenging and pleasant. It does deserves you “hidden gem” statement. The club house facilities were closed when we finished the game which was not a problem since we had to drive to Hua Hin anyway but would be a concern otherwise.
Palm Hills: nice course (although a bit dry), easy to score. Very good facilities and service. A good spot for laid-back tourists
Black Mountain: The design of the course is challenging and the maintenance perfect. Greens were just impossible to play for the bogie players we are (too steep and fast). The caddies were great (mine - Bee - had an amazing English for example). The food & drink booths are strangely located (inaccessible if you walk actually). Overall I found the place sad with not a single flower on the course (an achievement and somewhat a shame in Thailand). Said otherwise the golfing challenge not compensated by the environment. Certainly a good championship course but in the end, it was not fun .
Banyan: That was our preferred, some kind of perfect compromise between the two previous: great design and infrastructure, challenging but playable, extremely charming with a real signature hole (#15), well managed (no slow play unlike other places we experienced in the past like Lake View). My only reserve is that carts are mandatory whereas we prefer to walk but which the caddies let us do on the course anyway so it is not an issue. I cheerfully recommend the place.
The hotels were just perfect, your staff excellent also we had a very good time. Note there was a glitch with the pick-up to the airport but khun Ake could make it in time in the end, so your team reacted very well when I called to worry about the delay. Snow and ice in Paris this morning. Back to real life !

Debb and I made it home early Monday morning and I wanted to send a note to you and your staff, with regard to our experience with GolfAsian.
Our group was well looked after, from the time we arrived in Bangkok until our last day 3 weeks later in Phuket. As you had mentioned, golf and travel in Thailand may have its' 'bumps', which it did, however, those bumps, were professionally managed by your staff to ensure the group had the fantastic experience you had promised.
Golf, Thai style, is awesome! Each golfing day was a great experience from the clubhouse facilities (showers, restaurants, etc.), to the beautiful and well conditioned courses, to the caddies, to the on course relaxation facilities every third or fourth hole. The North American golf industry could take lessons.
Cha (Bangkok and Chiang Mai) was unbelievable. He became as much a friend to the group, as a Guide, and each and every one of us has memories which only Cha could have provided. Going the extra mile was never an issue with him and we are all grateful for his assistance. Took (Phuket) also did a great job. Due to the protests in Bangkok we were delayed one day in our Phuket visit. She worked with the Resort to get us a Massage and Seafood Dinner as compensation. You are fortunate to have these two valuable staff members working for your company.
The accommodations and the golf courses were first class. The group got to experience the ambience of each location. This added to the golf and other activities we had planned. As you had promised the transportation was prompt and effective. This ensured we were able to enjoy all activities as planned. We have so many great memories, including the wonderful people of Thailand, who always met us with a smile and worked hard to ensure we had a great time. The food was unbelievable. The weather was superb. What more an I say!
Left Bangkok (+30 C) got back to Calgary (-30C). That was a bit of a shock.
My goal for the group was to ensure they had the trip of a lifetime. In the end the group, unanimously agreed, this was truly the trip of a lifetime. With your help the goal was met and for that I would like to thank GolfAsian.
If any of your future clients would like a reference, please feel free to give them my email.

We just wanted to say thank you for helping Ron and Debb put together an amazing trip. We had a great time. Also, our guides really helped. Took did a good job of getting to and from places, being there to help and in general making our life easy. Cha is a great person and an exceptional guide. He helped us understand the places that we went to, the Thai culture, made our lives easier, showed incredible concern for our well being and above all became a friend to all of us.
The trip was a true success (our clubs even made it back without any problems).

Hello!!! Hope your week is going better - will send a longer email when we get home but just wanted to:
1) Confirm that our flights with Thai are confirmed now so departure for Monday shud be OK unless you think we should have more time at Phuket airport? I am okay with it AND
2) More importantly I had my first hole in one today on the third hole at Red Mountain!!!!!!! The other holes I played mediocre to not great what does that matter???
The club is going to send the certificate confirming the hole in one to Golf Asian to forward on to me. The club served a bottle of champagne which was very nice of them.
A great day!!!!! Doreen Eggar

Hi Jim,
In behalf of my group, I want to thank you for all the help extended to us in making this past trip a success. Although we ran into a few snags, it was a first time experience for all 13 of us and the pluses more than made up for the minuses during the trip.
Thank God for the Massage Parlours closeby because we all needed it after each day of golf. We had excellent restaurant selections and we actually didn't need the big shopping Malls since the street venders gave us all the bargains needed. As you quoted, exchange booths were all over the place so there were no problems with money. And yes, its easier to take the SkyTrain than a taxi on Sukhumvit in the evening. I swear the stoplights are timed for 5 minutes in each direction.
My personal thanks go to Rocky and Thon for their excellent service. Rocky gave his best especially when he had to apologize for the mixup at Alpine GC for the 4 instead of 3 tee times and the added cost for the cart. He was always on top of everything and we sure needed him for the communication part.
Your Vans are in top shape and the ride were very comfortable. It was an experience riding Shotgun with Thon.
The biggest drawback was not allowing the 90 degree cart allowance for the fairways at Summit Windmill and Alpine. The Marshals at Alpine finally had to drive several players themselves just to speed up play. If we knew ahead of time, 4 in my group wouldn't have made the trip or we would've selected other Courses to play. The humidity there can be very draining for the old folks. These people are the ones that can travel more often and don't worry too much about the cost as long as the trip is made comfortable for them.
All the Caddies were good at their job and really knew how to read the greens. So good that they even tried to improve lies and disregarding drops after water hazards/OB's (ha ha). I think they thought we were just typical tourists and out to just have fun. From the 2nd day on I had to tell them at the start that the group is playing tournament format for MONEY and needs to play under USGA rules. Otherwise, they were fun and inquisitive. Most thought I was a "Thai Man".
Anyway Jim, it was a pleasant experience for me. You can be sure I'll contact you if I plan to bring a group to any of the Asian countries your Company services. I enjoyed meeting you at the Hotel and hope to see you again in the near future. You're a great Asset to GolfAsian and I hope they realized that.
Thanks again

Jim,
We had a few days of good golf in ChiangMai. I must agree with you that ChiangMai Highlands is a great course which I will definitely recommend to friends. Royal ChiangMai was good in layout but the fairways are not in very good shape, which I will give a miss the next time around. Mae Jo was ok with beautiful fruit trees but greens were very slow.
The driver was a nice guy, polite and punctual ( we gave him a generous tip).
Royal Princess hotel is great for convenience. Definitely will stay there again.
My friends and I are very happy with your service and response to our needs. Please accept our thanks and convey to Bee the same for everything that you have done to make our stay in ChiangMai enjoyable. Will surely use your service, and recommend you to our friends, the next time we golf in Thailand (something we do quite frequently).
Regards.
Tony Tng

Hi Jim
Thank you for organising a fantastic trip to Thailand for me and my husband. All the arrangements went like clockwork and even the weather was kind to us. Your staff, Aek in Bangkok and Noy in Hua Hin were very good, always ready with a smile, and the two private tour guides you arranged were both excellent.
The hotels you selected for us suited us perfectly.
The Dream Hotel, Bangkok - lovely hotel very conveniently situated in a quite side street but close to the action and transport. Great bed and facilities in the room. (I note on Trip Advisor that a lot of comments say that this hotel is not recommended for older people. I don't know why. We loved it.)
Yaang Come Village, Chiang Mai - a lovely oasis of tranquillity yet right in the middle of town. Fantastic staff. Highly recommended.
Wora Bura Resort, Hua Hin - lovely elegant resort with lots of character and great facilities. Rather far from town but good hotel shuttle service.
We enjoyed all the golf courses we played, some better than others obviously. We were very fortunate that, with the exception of Palm Hills where we were teamed up with another player, we were able to play in a two-ball so enjoyed fairly quick rounds. This was our order of preference.
Black Mountain Golf Club - by far the best course that we played. Stunning well designed layout in a fantastic setting. Although a very new course it was in great condition.
Chiang Mai Highlands - Excellent course with lots of bunkers and difficult greens
Springfield Village Golf Club - beautiful layout and excellent facilities. Very disinterested caddies rather spoilt the experience.
Royal Chiang Mai - older course in very good condition
Suwan Golf Club - New course in superb conditions. Very fast greens and difficult pin positions
Palm Hills- Fairways rather scrappy with invasive grasses.
If I had one criticism of the itinerary it would be that we left Chiang Mai too late. Our flight only left Chiang Mai at 14.40 with the result that we only arrived at our hotel in Hua Hin after 20.00.
All in all a memorable first trip to Thailand. We will certainly have no hesitation in recommending your company.

Jim, Many thanks for a great trip. Thank you also for your patience in dealing with all the enquiries we had.
We had a great time. Everything Golf Asian did was perfect and exceeded expectations.
Now... how about Vietnam. Can we start the ball rolling on a quote for Vietnam same time next year.
Lets say: another top 5 courses like the ones we just played etc.
Assume we will pick our own accommodation.
What did we learn from our last trip.
Probably found commuting tiring.
Would look at options for staying on a course, or a golf resort so we can practice before and after games and travel.
Can you set the ball rolling with a quote for a recommended package.

We're all safely back from our memorable golf tour. On behalf of all of us I'd like to thank you and your staff for the throughly professional way in which our vacation was handled. You dealt with our many requests for changes and tweakings to the party and itinerary with patience and aplomb. Rocky was an excellent guide/driver who never failed to impress with local knowledge and suggestions for off-course entertainment. We were blessed with excellent weather and, most importantly, a good time was had by all. Please pass on our thanks to your staff.

Thank you very much for all your help with arranging our holiday.

First of all may I thank you, and all your personnel in Phuket, for a wonderful experience in Thailand.
All of the people on tour said it was the best golfing trip they had ever been on and would recommend Golf Asian to anybody.
We are most grateful for your excellent assistance. We managed to get seats on the flight to Melbourne, as it was our preferred destination.
Once again our sincere thanks for a wonderful trip.

Hi Jim
Just returned last night from Bangkok. Thank you so much for organising our holiday. We were very impressed with the golf courses especially Thai and Alpine. They were both beautiful. Rocky did a great job driving us around, the hotel was excellent and we were very happy. We would definitely use Golf Asian again to organise any golfing holidays.

Dear Mark,
I wasn`t sure if I should go on this trip or not, but my wife insisted. I`ll tell you it was one of the best trips I ever had. We golfed 14 days out of the 23 days we were there. The cources were great. The caddies were remarkable. They know how to read a green. Everyone there was so friendly,didn`t matter where you went . The food was the best,didn`t matter where you ate. We went on some fantastic tours. All and all I loved the golfing. Guess what, I`m going again this year. Our group went through Golfasian Co. Ltd and I would have to give them a 10 out of 10 rating. Remarkable service. For the cost cheaper than most of my other trips.

John and I have returned from Pattaya and thought that it was prudent to let you know how things went . We were very impressed with the service provided by your local representative in Pattaya. Montri Sirisawad was always on time for pick up times. He provided some local knowledge on the course we played and he was very helpful throughout our entire stay in Pattaya. He is an asset to your organisation.
As for the courses we selected; they were superbly manicured and well maintained, with the exception of Burapha. This course was in need of a good mowing as the length of grass on the fairways and rough, was too long. Apart from that, we enjoyed the five courses immensely and we look forward to booking five new courses on our trip for next year.
Thanks for a pleasant golfing experience.
Regards,
Paul & John.

The organization and selection of courses was fantastic, and this was enhanced by the superb service we received from Montri.

Every part of out tour was organized to the finest detail, we were constantly meet by friendly people who obviously respect your organization.

This for Mark, MD of GolfAsian.
I have just been and now back from the most memorable, perfect and wonderful golf holiday that my boyfriend and I have ever experienced - thanks to GolfAsian.com!!
This is the first time I booked with Golfasian and with immediate effect, I will highly recommend it to my golf friends.
This was how perfect it was:
(1) From the word go during the booking process, Yim was very responsive and accomodative to my request and numerous changes via email and also over the phone
(2) From landing in Bangkok to leaving bangkok - it was just amazing! Yoon picked us up and sent us direct to Lakewood.
(3) Lakewood was pretty and pace of play was good. Hotel was FANTASTIC!! and Yoon was EXCELLENT
(4) As his boss, it tells us a lot about you too when we requested for Yoon to drive us around for our whole trip and you agreed without talking to us and making a big fuss about our request. It shows that you are a good boss to Yoon.
(5) Yoon is a GEM! He speaks great english for a Thai and very knowledgeable and articulate in his general knowledge He was always punctual, courteous patient and friendly.
(6) Being driven around in the car you provided was also a BIG PLUS - a luxury one can always request but not get due to demand
(7) Weather and less crowd during the holiday season made the trip even more enjoyable
All in all, Mark, we must thank you for a well organised, comfortable, luxurious (we are easy to please) and exciting (courses of course - the one birdie at the Best ocean course Par 3 was enough for me to have enjoyed the 72 holes) holiday. I must say it was ONE of the MOST enjoyable holiday I have ever had with my better half. He too really enjoyed the holiday and the conversations he had with Yoon about the Thai culture and places of interest etc.
We will certainly booked with GolfAsian again for our future trips. We plan to do this on a semi-annual basis. We have to pick the right time as well coz the 13 - 16 April 08 was, in our opinion, PERFECT timing
Thank you again for a wonderful experience. Looking forward to our next trip

I must say it was ONE of the MOST enjoyable holiday I have ever had with my better half. He too really enjoyed the holiday and the conversations he had with Yoon about the Thai culture and places of interest etc.
We will certainly booked with GolfAsian again for our future trips. We plan to do this on a semi-annual basis. We have to pick the right time as well coz the 13 - 16 April 08 was, in our opinion, PERFECT timing
Thank you again for a wonderful experience. Looking forward to our next trip

Yim... We have just arrived back in Australia from the very enjoyable golf trip that you arranged for us. We were very impressed - the courses and were excellent and the caddies happy and helpful The accommodation and the staff at the Radisson were first class. Your drivers (especially Rocky) were very courteous and obliging , nothing being too much trouble for them.
We were also very thankful to Rocky and and the hotel staff for the help and concern when Bryan was sick and had to go to Hospital.
Again thank you for a very enjoyable holiday and we would be more than happy to provide references for you in the future.... Best regards Don Maunder,Bryan Bolitho,Steve Gilby,Dean Sharpe & Peter Berry Mr. Maunder

Mark,
I have been very busy this past week since my return home, and haven’t had a chance to respond earlier.
Overall, we were very pleased with the trip and arrangements. The golf courses we played were of very good quality and we enjoyed playing all of them. Red Mountain in particular was quite spectacular.
There are a few suggestions that I would make in order to improve your services:
Thanks for the help of you and your staff. We greatly enjoyed our trip.

There are a few suggestions that I would make in order to improve your services:
- the Bangkok Marriott and the Wora Bora were both excellent facilities. I’d highly recommend either of these to anyone traveling to Thailand.
- we were not overly pleased with the Felix River Inn. I understand it may be the best facility in Kanchanaburi, but it was not up to the quality that we expected. I know it was a 4 star (vs the others being 5 star hotels).
- The Allamanda Laguna hotel was an ok facility.
- Our driver (Montri) for Bangkok / Kanchanaburi / Hua Hin was a joy to be around. We were extremely pleased with everything he did for us.
- The driver in Phuket (not sure of his name – Pla?) was a good driver.
Thanks for the help of you and your staff. We greatly enjoyed our trip.

Dear Jim,
I meant to write to you before but for reasons that will become apparent I could not get it done until now. My apologies.
First of all and most importantly, I want to thank you and all at Golf Asian for looking after everything so well. Every single transfer and golf booking and my hotel bookings all went ahead without a single hitch except for one minor glitch; my round at Gassan Khuntan was booked as planned but they had no record of having booked a prepaid cart for me. This was all sorted out while I played the back nine so no real problems.
Overall I was less impressed with Hua Hin than Chiang Mai. The weather up north was kinder, Hua Hin being very hot and steamy by comparison; and although the golf courses in both locations were absolutely excellent and well looked after, I prefer being in the heart of a city to being in a purpose built resort outside the town. The only drawback in Chiang Mai was that on some golf courses the rounds were extremely slow, usually because Asian players prefer to play at a slower speed than most Europeans and are not good about letting faster players through. This was particularly a problem at Green Valley, a lovely course but hopelessly badly organised as far as bookings are concerned. Both times when I turned up in good time for my allotted tee time there were queues at the first tee and the starter was adamant that there was no way of starting at a different hole because there was no room at any of the other holes to move more quickly. As a result I was over half an hour late off the tee and had to play a six hour round. It was less of a problem at Lamphun but there were still slow players holding up play even when I was started at the 10th; there was some delay at Mae Jo even though I was started at the 10th; but by contrast at Highlands they did all they could to keep play moving and I now rate the course as equal best in the Chiang Mai area along with Royal Chiang Mai, where I was always got off the tee swiftly and efficiently and had excellent rounds. This was in part due to the quality of the caddies and the starting staff. Apart from Royal Chiang Maii and Highlands the caddy quality was at least variable. The girls were always enthusiastic and good fun, great at finding your ball but less good at judging distances and the line of putts; and the standard of spoken English was not as good as in previous years. But in context these are minor quibbles about what was as expected a superb golfing experience.
My drivers were all extremely good and went out of their way to be helpful. The Royal Princess Hotel was extremely attentive and all the staff were outstandingly efficient, courteous and helpful. Overall it was a memorably good holiday and I will return next year for certain. Thank you once again for making it all happen for me.

Hi Mark,
Gung Hay Fat Choy!
Everything has been going great! First of all, I want to thank you for everything you did for us on our trip in Bangkok and Phuket. Everyone
really enjoyed themselves and loved it. The sightseeing tours and the golf were great. I think they may want to return next year.
We are in Singapore now and will be flying back to Bangkok tomorrow.

Hello Jim,
Thank you for your e-mail – I am now back in Delhi where it is quite cold. So, I have some problems in adapting after the nice and warm weather of Thailand and Cambodia.
First of all, I would like to thank you and your team for the good organisation of the trip. I think that everything, from the first contact until the my departure went as planned and all the Golfasian staff I had contact with did a good job.
In general, we were also pleased with our trip. For Cambodia, our overall impression was quite good – everything went as planned.
Kirimaya: wonderful environment but a bit boring – Cambodia: not as great as Kirimaya in terms of environment and luxury, but a nice place to stay and to play some golf. Overall, it was a nice holiday.
Thank you once again for the organisation and I am pretty sure, living in the neighbourhood, that you will soon hear from us again to organise us another golf-escape.
With my best regards

Thanks for the quick response. I asked Finance to expedite the wire transfer so you should see it in 1-2 days. The event went very well. The caddies really added a lot, as you said. I’m personally very appreciative of your personal touch and the fact that you trusted me to settle our affairs when I returned to California. I won’t forget that. Should I ever need help with an event like this or with a personal golf outing, I won’t hesitate to contact you at Golfasian. Good Show, my friend.

Mark,
Thank you - I hope Jim enjoys the gift of my latest literary endeavour which was written for charity. We raised Pounds 8500 in total which was very pleasing.
We are in NZ at present, not playing much golf, but visiting relatives who emmigrated here three decades ago.
While in Bangkok we played Alpine which was outstanding and we thoroughly enjoyed the fabulous course and the ambience of the club. We both played very well. Also on Sunday we played Suwan which was very good.
After our stay in NZ we go to Australia before arriving back in Bangkok 9th February (Phuket 10th) and are looking forward to the golf Jim has arranged for us at Loch Palm, Mission Hills, BCCC Lakes and possibly Red Mountain. Will give you some feedback after we have completed the trip.
All the best,

Jim, I appreciate the excellent service and support I have had, even before I land in Thailand. I am looking forward to the holiday, and some golf.
Even if the lesson I had last week in Perth will probably have irrevocably ruined my swing!
I am in the departure lounge at Changi, and this is my last chance to send an e-mail before I land in Bangkok.
