No visit to Thailand is
complete without spending a few days in Bangkok.
The city is anything but
charming on first impressions, but spend some
time there and peel back the skin a little, and
you may well grow to enjoy the taste of this
fascinating city. Dirty and heavily polluted,
the traffic, despite two mass transit systems
opening over the last few years remains
appalling. Glistening skyscrapers perpetually
darken wooden slums and squats, whose occupants
continue to fight against the development
behemoth, while sparkling new Mercedes dodge
food
carts being pushed along the slow lane. Bangkok
is a city of have and have-nots on a scale like
no other in Thailand.
Bangkok is a perfect
choice as an add-on to your main golfing
destination. Soak up the sights, sounds and
smells of this bustling city and enjoy the vast
array of food and shopping. A trip on a long
tailboat on the Chaophya River is a must
together with a visit to the night market for
shopping. You can also visit the ancient capital
of Ayudha and the floating market.
Whilst there are a large number of golf courses
in and around Bangkok, we only offer a selection
of the very best ones. The traffic in Bangkok is
very congested so we have selected courses where
the transfer times are predictable.

Hotels in Bangkok
Our lead hotel
in Bangkok is the modern 4 star
Chaophya Park. Located near the city
centre and adjacent to a subway
station, this is the perfect choice

in some practice before heading out
to play.

Attractions in Bangkok
Not-to-be-missed by all visitors in
Bangkok are fabulous palaces and
historic temples such as the Grand
Palace and the Temple of the Emerald
Buddha. For those with more time on
their hands, see Nakhon Pathom,
which hosts the world's tallest
Buddhist monument, Ratchaburi, for
the famous floating market and
Ayutthaya, Thailand's capital in
past times.
