Overview
Ho Chi Minh Golf Holiday Itinerary
Meet your driver at Tan Son Nhat International Airport (SGN) and check in. No golf today, so the evening is free for a first look around District 1.
Start with the classic: Song Be Golf Resort, opened in 1994, with 27 holes across the Lotus, Palm and Desert nines. Mature trees and narrow corridors reward accuracy over length.
Long Thanh Golf Club in Dong Nai has 36 holes on two courses, Hill and Lake, both by Golfplan. The Hill Course has a par 3 with two greens at the 4th; the Lake Course brings water into play more often.
The longest drive of the trip, about 50 km west, to Royal Long An Golf & Country Club, Nick Faldo’s design that opened in November 2023: 18 holes, par 72, 7,233 yards. West Lakes Golf & Villas, a 2018 Thomson Perrett course with water on every hole, is the alternative on request.
Check out and finish at Tan Son Nhat Golf Course, 36 holes beside the city airport, about 25–30 minutes by road from the airport terminal. Play in the morning and go straight to your flight.

Why these four
Many Saigon golf trips repeat the same two or three courses. This one goes north, east and west before finishing at the airport, so each day feels different: 1990s parkland at Song Be, 36 holes at Long Thanh, a modern Nick Faldo layout at Royal Long An and a convenient last round at Tan Son Nhat.
Options people add
- A Greg Norman course: Chau Duc Golf Course, a Greg Norman design, or Emerald Country Club can replace one round on request.
- A rest day: Add a fifth night and take a day off between rounds.
- Add the coast: The Bluffs Grand Ho Tram, Greg Norman’s dunes course in Golf Digest’s World 100, is about 2–2.5 hours from Saigon; add two nights by the sea and play it on request.

Best Time for a Golf Holiday in Ho Chi Minh City
Four rounds in five days is most comfortable in the dry season, from about December to April, when the heat is drier and rain is rare. In the wet season, roughly May to November, plan early starts to finish before the afternoon storms.
