Outstanding Golf Trip to Danang with Golfasian

Our group of four recently returned from a fantastic 5-day golf trip to Danang, Vietnam, organized through Golfasian—and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience.

Out of many tour companies we considered, Golfasian stood out right away due to their prompt and professional communication. Huy, our coordinator, was exceptional from start to finish—friendly, efficient, and extremely accommodating. He crafted a well-thought-out itinerary and quickly provided great alternative options when we wanted to make changes. Every golf course he recommended was excellent.

Our driver, Quoc Kenn, was another highlight of the trip. He was punctual, courteous, and drove us around in a clean, comfortable, and spacious van—which stayed with us for the duration of the trip, including airport transfers.

We also added a day tour, and our guide Quy was phenomenal—knowledgeable, personable, and engaging. If we’d had more time, we would’ve loved to take additional tours with him.

One major hiccup was with our visa situation—we discovered the night before our flight that, as U.S. citizens, we needed visas to enter Vietnam. Thankfully, Huy came through again, assisting us with expedited processing so we didn’t have to cancel the trip. While the cost was high and the oversight was on our end, we do wish Golfasian had highlighted this requirement again during the booking process, especially since they collect nationality details.

Despite that, the overall experience was outstanding. Huy and the Golfasian team were reliable and incredibly helpful throughout. I would absolutely recommend them and look forward to booking our next Asia golf adventure with them.

We have used many Golf tour operators over the last 15 years but Golfasian is by far the best.
They checked course conditions a month before and sent us photos. Two weeks prior they learnt that some greens were to be repaired, so they advised and arranged alternate bookings.one of our members got sick on hole 1. They took care of hime, got him a private car to hotel , arranged hotel medical to look after him, with no extra fees . This is an exceptional level of personal service with understanding.The transport and registration at course was seamless , and the communication of information on courses, caddies weather and personal care was all very detailed and helpful. Golasian gave us a wonderful experience! Thank You.

Just returned from a 10 day golf experience with a group of friends in Thailand. This was our first time using Golfasian and it will not be the last. From the initial organisation of the trip and dates with Darren, to the trip itself, everything was just simple. Everything was catered for and at a very reasonable price. Would highly recommend.

I like to take the opportunity to express my gratitude to Tip for organising our golf trip in Khao Yai. From the very beginning Tip was so professional and friendly. Her Driver Nikon was also very attentive and they ensured everything went smoothly. I will definitely recommend to anyone who wants to experience golf trip with Golf Asian .

Used GolfAsian for a trip in February 2026 starting in Phuket, Thailand for golf in HCMC and Dalat, Vietnam. The sales enquiry process was smooth and easy. The itinerary planning was excellent and with perfect attention to detail. We had a single point of contact on arrival throughout our stay. He handled any minor issues or changes we needed to make without any fuss and was always available and responsive. All airport and golf course transfers were on time. Drivers drove safely and responsibly. In summary, our party of 7 was highly impressed with all aspects of GolfAsian. I would recommend them to others and would gladly use them again for another hassle free Asian golf trip.

Golfasian delivered one of the best vacations I have ever been on. From start to finish, everything was handled with great professionalism, and the service was excellent in every way. A special thank you to Por, our trip creator, who did an outstanding job and made the whole experience smooth, enjoyable, and stress-free. Every detail was well organized, and we felt very well taken care of throughout the trip. I can highly recommend Golfasian to anyone looking for a first-class golf travel experience.

Golfasian were excellent throughout. When I was creating our itinerary, Darren was exceptionally patient and helpful in ensuring we achieved our aims. On the ground in Thailand, the service was equally good. All of our transfers to/from the courses, and from city to city worked perfectly. The drivers were helpful, punctual and ensured we were checked-in at each course on arrival. The Helpline was also very supportive and provided excellent service. Definitely recommended.

Recently, had a solo trip to Danang and wanted to play two round. I needed help to arrange the trip and suggestions for solo play. I must say. The overall trip went well and the courses suggested were amazing. Can only highly recommend reaching out to GolfAsian for any type of golf trip. Big thanks to Mery for all the services.

Repeating customer in Hua Hin. Every step op your travel package is well designed. We used Fast Track, that gets you to your driver and van in short time. All road transport on time, comfortable and very helpful to get you to your caddies. All golf courses and tee times in order. They also have a hotline for problems. Works very good, both by phone or WhatsApp. Looking forward to next years trip again.
