2. How many golf courses are there in Vietnam?

At the moment, there are approximately 60 golf courses in Vietnam and 60 more under construction. The courses are diverse in years of construction. There are older courses such as Da Lat Palace Golf Club, which were built by the French during their colonial era and finished in 1922, or the first northern golf club built in 1993 – King’s Insland Golf Club. On the other hand, there are newer courses such as Bana Hills Golf Club in Danang, Vin Pearl Golf Club in Phu Quoc … In the past several years, more and more golf are played by foreign visitors from America, Europe, Japan, South Korea, Australia … as well as Vietnamese people. This enthusiasm is the main driven force for rapid golf courses expansion in Vietnam.

3. Transportation

There are various types of transportation in Vietnam. Golfers can travel around by renting a car with driver in Vietnam or using taxi. Other popular choices to travel between major cities are by train or air. At the moment, there are 10 international airports in Vietnam with regular Vietnam domestic flight routes to accommodate the high traffic of travelers in Vietnam.

4. Visa

• To go to Vietnam you must have a valid passport valid at least 6 months after the date of return.
• The Government of Vietnam promulgates the Resolution on Vietnamese Entry Visa Waiver for Citizens of Five European Countries: UK, France, Germany, Spain and Italy. This exemption is applied for a maximum period of 15 days regardless of passport categories and purpose of entry into Vietnam, and is valid until June 30, 2021.
• For any stay lasting more than 15 days, or for a multiple entry stay in a period of less than 15 days, a visa is required. A period of 30 days is required after the last exit from Vietnam in order to once again benefit from the visa waiver measure for a stay not exceeding 15 days.

5. International flight

• Our offer does not include international flights between your country and Vietnam for two reasons:
• International flights from your country are more expensive if purchased in Vietnam. It is therefore more beneficial for you to buy them from a ticketing agency in your country.
• The payment and booking conditions for international flights are strict while it is difficult for us, a local agency, to apply the same conditions to you (full payment before travel). Since international financial transactions give rise to significant bank charges, you will be led to pay unnecessary surcharges.

6. Which language?

• The official and most widely spread language is Vietnamese.
• English is spoken in all touristic areas.

7. Money:

USD, Euro, AUD and GBP are quite popular accepted in main cities in our countries, but travelers should change to local currency at arrival airport, at the hotel or nearby banks.
