- GolfAsian.com booked a 13 day golf package for our group. The package included 7 awesome courses from Bangkok to Hau Hin. In addition, they booked some day excursions from spa treatments, river boat cruises to Temple visits. From the moment we touched down a driver had a sign and the tour guide spoke great English and was very polite. I strongly recommend GolfAsian.
Brian Weis - Great team, great service. I will definitely go to Golfasian again for my next trip.
Thank you
Craig Jenkins - I spent 2 weeks in Thailand playing 6 rounds in the Bangkok area, fantastic organisation from the guys at GA and nothing was too much hassle, definitely recommend.
Brian Gibson - Just got back from Hua Hin and Bangkok, 10 games in 14 days. Once again, great service from Darren and Por and the team at GolfasianClive Helps
- This was our second trip organised by GolfAsian and hopefully not the last. Our contact, Jim, has been very helpful and patient with various changes in our plans. All 8 of us were very happy with the golf courses and hotel accommodation. The pickups were flawless and the drivers always very competent. Highly reccomend this company.
Sue Armstrong - I have just returned from a trip to Cambodia where Golfasian organised 3 rounds around Siem Reap this was very well run with all the drivers and people behind the scenes being very professional and making this so easy to just turn up and play with no worries at all
Richard Norton - We just returned from a 15 day golf and cultural tour of Thailand. the golf courses were superb and the tours interesting and informative. Golf Asian was on top of things when our flight from Chiang Mai to Bangkok was delayed and we were met by our driver with no problem. Thanks for a wonderful time.
Larry Lamping - March 2019 marked our fourth and best golf trip so far. This time we visited Hua Hin and Pattaya and Golf Asian out did themselves. Our Bus driver “Rocky” in Hua Hin looked after us perfectly as did “Moo” in Pattaya. Actually Moo has been one of our bus drivers on every trip and we love him to bits. His little giggle of a laugh when listening to our antics is hilarious 😆 We also had the absolute delight of having Bua accompany us on most trips. Bua stayed with us and made sure everything was perfect until we had all teed off.
So thanks to Golf Asian, rest assured we will be seeing you all again 👍🏼
Bradley Nahrung - We just completed our trip to Bangkok and played at Alpine and Thai. Everything was planned by Golf Asian very professionally and the trip was awesome. Would surely recommend to others and will use them again for future golf trips. Keep up the good work.
Gorav Jaitly - Just home from 3rd trip to Thailand this year. Everything from pickup at the airport through to getting us back to the airport booked through Golfasian Hua Hin. 16 rounds of golf. Perfect. Special thanks to Tommy and Aey. Highly recommended.
