Golf Society Trips to Bangkok

Last updated: 27 July 2026

Bangkok is for societies who want to play the famous ones. Thai Country Club, Alpine, Amata Spring — clubs that have hosted world-ranked fields, at green fees that would not get you a weekend four-ball at a comparable European club.

The catch is traffic, and it is a real catch. Get the base wrong and your society will spend more time in a coach than on the course.

Why Bangkok works for a society

Bangkok has the deepest concentration of prestige golf in Thailand and by far the most courses overall — 67 in our directory with photography alone. For a society that has already done the standard European trips, playing a Tiger Woods tournament venue on a Tuesday for a fraction of the price is the draw.

It also suits a mixed group: partners who do not play have an entire city to work with, which is not true of a golf resort in the middle of nowhere.

The courses that suit a group

These are the ones we would build a society week around — a mix of the round everyone came for and the value days that keep the budget honest.

Historic

A week that works

A proven shape for a five-round week, with the rest day where it does most good. Slot your order of merit across the four competitive rounds and keep the opener social.

Day	Round	Why here
2	Summit Windmill	Ten minutes from Suvarnabhumi, so it works as an arrival-day round. Floodlit if you land late.
3	Thai Country Club	The Tiger Woods one. Build the order of merit around it.
4	Rest day	Grand Palace, Chatuchak, or a river trip — the advantage of a city base.
5	Alpine	A Johnnie Walker Classic venue and the members' favourite.
6	Nikanti	All-inclusive, including food and drink, which makes the accounting easy for an organiser.
7	Riverdale	Real elevation change and the best conditioning in the city.

Day one is arrival and day eight is the flight home. Price this exact shape on the trip cost calculator.

Local logistics in Bangkok

Stay near the courses, not in the middle of town. Most of the good clubs sit east of the city near Suvarnabhumi or north towards Pathum Thani. A Sukhumvit hotel looks convenient on a map and costs you ninety minutes each way.
Tee off early. A 6.30am departure beats the traffic and the heat. Your society will grumble on day one and thank you by day three.
Airport-side courses are a gift for arrival and departure days — see golf near Suvarnabhumi.
Some of the best clubs are private. Amata Spring in particular is members-only; access for a group generally needs an introduction or an operator with a relationship there.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a society golf trip to Bangkok cost?

For seven nights with five rounds, expect roughly £1,100 to £1,900 per golfer excluding flights, depending on hotel standard and how many premium courses you play. Group rates generally start at eight golfers. Remember the compulsory caddie fee and a cash tip of ฿400–฿500 per round on top.

Can we get a group rate at Bangkok courses?

Yes. Most Bangkok courses will quote below the published green fee from around eight golfers, and the discount improves as numbers rise. Send your dates and final numbers together — a quote for “about twelve to twenty” is always worse than a quote for eighteen.

How many rounds should a society play in a week in Bangkok?

Four or five over seven nights. Thai rounds take four and a half to five and a half hours in heat and humidity, so consecutive days are harder work than at home. Societies that book seven rounds in seven days routinely drop one — and it is usually the expensive one.

Can we arrange a shotgun start?

With enough golfers, yes. From around twenty-four upwards it becomes realistic on a weekday, and above thirty-two it is straightforward. Ask when you enquire rather than after you have booked, because it determines which Bangkok courses can take you.
