Last month I booked a 7-day golf trip for four buddies from San Jose — all mid-handicappers, all first-timers to Vietnam. Total damage per person: $1,850 including flights from LAX, 6 rounds at championship courses, 4-star hotel, all meals, private driver, and a cooking class in Hoi An. Try getting that value in Scottsdale or Myrtle Beach.
Vietnam golf packages work because the logistics are simpler than most people think. Direct flights serve Da Nang and Hanoi from a dozen major cities. Courses cluster in tight geographic zones — Da Nang alone has 12 within a 90-minute radius. And local operators handle everything from tee times to airport transfers for a fraction of what you’d pay organizing it yourself.
At a glance:
- Package options: 5-day (3-4 rounds), 7-day (5-6 rounds), 10-day grand tour (8 rounds)
- Price range: $800–$3,000 per person depending on tier and duration
- Top destinations: Da Nang/Hoi An, Hanoi, HCMC, multi-city combos
- Best booking window: 4-6 weeks ahead for peak season (Nov–Mar)
- Included: Green fees, caddie, hotel, breakfast, airport transfers, private driver
Package 1: Classic Da Nang — 5 Days, 4 Rounds ($800–$1,400/person)
The Classic Da Nang package covers four championship courses in five days — the ideal introduction to Vietnam golf packages for first-timers. You’ll play courses designed by Greg Norman, Jack Nicklaus, Colin Montgomerie, and Luke Donald without ever driving more than 45 minutes from your hotel.
| Day | Morning | Afternoon | Evening |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day 1 | Arrive Da Nang, hotel check-in | Practice range at Montgomerie | Welcome dinner, My Khe Beach |
| Day 2 | ⛳ Montgomerie Links (18H) | Hoi An Ancient Town | Dinner in Hoi An |
| Day 3 | ⛳ BRG Da Nang (18H) | Pool/spa | Seafood BBQ at local beach bar |
| Day 4 | ⛳ Ba Na Hills GC (18H) | Ba Na Hills cable car | Farewell dinner |
| Day 5 | ⛳ Hoiana Shores (18H) | Airport transfer | Depart |
⛳ Dave’s Pick: Budget tier: $800/person with 3-star hotel. Mid-range: $1,100/person with 4-star beachfront. Premium: $1,400/person with Hyatt/Sheraton and top-tier courses only.
Package 2: Two-City Explorer — 7 Days, 6 Rounds ($1,400–$2,200/person)
This Vietnam golf package adds Hanoi to the mix, giving you two distinct golf regions and a domestic flight connecting them. Da Nang delivers coastal and mountain golf; Hanoi offers lakeside and highland courses designed by Nicklaus and Peter Morrow. The contrast in terrain, weather, and culture makes this my most-recommended package for repeat visitors.
| Day | Activity | Course |
|---|---|---|
| Day 1 | Arrive Da Nang | — |
| Day 2 | Golf + Hoi An visit | Montgomerie Links |
| Day 3 | Golf + beach | BRG Da Nang |
| Day 4 | Golf + Ba Na Hills | Ba Na Hills GC |
| Day 5 | Fly to Hanoi, PM golf | Van Tri GC (9 holes) |
| Day 6 | Full day golf | BRG Kings Island (Kingfisher) |
| Day 7 | AM golf, PM depart | Sky Lake (Mountain course) |
Package 3: Grand Tour — 10 Days, 8 Rounds ($2,200–$3,000/person)
The Grand Tour is for serious golfers who want to experience everything Vietnam offers. Ten days, three cities, eight rounds, and a Ha Long Bay overnight cruise thrown in for good measure. This is the Vietnam golf packages option I personally recommend to anyone who can spare the time — it’s comprehensive, varied, and the value per round is absurd.
You’ll play in Da Nang (4 rounds), Hanoi (3 rounds), and add a day trip to FLC Ha Long Bay for clifftop golf with UNESCO World Heritage views. The Ha Long Bay cruise on Day 8 provides a welcome recovery day between rounds.

Best Time to Book Vietnam Golf Packages
Peak season for Vietnam golf runs November through March for Central Vietnam (Da Nang) and October through April for the North (Hanoi). Booking 4-6 weeks ahead secures your preferred tee times and hotel rates. Last-minute bookings in peak season can still work but you’ll miss the best courses on Saturday/Sunday slots.
Shoulder season (April–May, September–October) offers 20-30% lower pricing with mostly excellent weather. I’ve played some of my best rounds in April — warm but not oppressive, courses less crowded, and twilight extends to 6:30 PM.
⛳ Dave’s Practical Tip: Two things every golfer needs in Vietnam: a travel eSIM from Klook (unlimited data, $5-8 for 7 days) and a reliable private driver ($45-70/day). Book both before you land — one less thing to worry about at the airport.
