      What would be the best area to plan a golf trip in Vietnam ?
      Staying for 7 -10 days

    • @vinhnguyenchannel
      @vinhnguyenchannel Рік тому +2

      @@timgale7516 wow that’s hard to say for me. But if I have only 7-10 days in Vietnam for traveling and golfing, I’d go to central region, beautiful beaches and some of the best golf courses in Vietnam like: Laguna in Lang Co, BRG Montgomerie in Da Nang, Ba Na Hill Golf Resort. But I would also recommend the North Region within October to December at Ha Long Bay we have FLC Ha Long Golf Resort has the best views of the bay, Thanh Lanh Golf Resort in Vinh Phuc also stunning. The South I never played but I heard the Bluffs Ho Tram Golf Club is beautiful. I suggest you should take sometimes to research for the best courses that you like or just simply spend more time in Vietnam to enjoy them all. Each places have their own charms. Wish you a good trip man!

    I can't recommend this to people enough, go to Asia. Play golf, have fun, and see a totally different world than what you're used to in the west. (Often times on a much cheaper budget too)
    Sure it's a longer flight, but if every few years you go on a big 7-10 day golf trip you should consider going to places like Vietnam, Thailand, Japan, Korea, or the Philippines as your destination. That doesn't even begin to cover places in Western and Central Asian countries such as Turkey, UAE, and India which are also less visited golf destinations in Asia. There's a big golf world out there, go find it!

    Having been to Da Nang for the last 5 years, before cv19, I can say this video hits home. Laguna is north of Da Nang and BRG is south, and closer. But my wife and I love to play at Ba Na Hill Golf. This course is about 7 years old now, has night lights, and carved into the hilly/mountain. what to eat in Da Nang: Mi Quang, Rotisserie chicken (Ga Tu Ta 62 Hai Phong), and any bun cha ca places mentioned in video.

    Great video as always Erik! We went to Vietnam from the UK in 2013.... Hired scooters and went from Saigon all the way to Hanoi. We played golf and were the only 2 people on the course! It was so expensive and so exclusive, hopefully that has changed. Vietnam however was the most amazing country I have ever been to. 🥰

    • @thecobbler2921
      @thecobbler2921 Рік тому

      I’m afraid the pricing hasn’t changed. On average, you’re looking at 80-100 quid for a round that includes caddy and golf cart. Doesn’t include the tip for the caddy that is around 15-20 quid based on a good experience.
      That being said, you get what you pay for. The courses and facilities are pristine
