Chiang Mai Golf Tours & Packages

Explore the Best Golf Courses in Chiang Mai

Set in Thailand’s enchanting northern capital, Chiang Mai combines world-class golf with rich cultural heritage. While the city charms visitors with its ancient temples, artisan markets, and mountain scenery, it’s also home to exceptional golf courses nestled in breathtaking landscapes just beyond the old city walls. From morning tee times in misty mountain settings to evening dining in lantern-lit venues, Chiang Mai is simply the best place to experience both sport and tradition.

The region’s mountainous terrain provides an ideal backdrop for golf, with courses winding through verdant valleys and alongside serene waterways, all within view of Chiang Mai’s stunning mountain ranges. Yet it’s the contrast between peaceful fairways and the city’s laid-back atmosphere that makes Chiang Mai unique – visitors can enjoy a challenging round in the morning, explore centuries-old temples in the afternoon, and savor northern Thailand’s distinctive cuisine by night.
