Default Myanmar Golf tours

Golf tours

Golf and leisure tours are available upon request. The best time for golf
tours are from October to May. Myanmar formally anglicized, as Burma since
1824, there is a long history in golf. The first golf course in Myanmar is
located in Thayetmyo, 125 kms from Yangon was established by British in
1887. The member of Thayet Golf club is entitled to play at Royal St.
Adnrews Golf Club (Scotland) as an honorary guest.

Today there are 68 golf courses all over the country from Myitkyina in far
north Myanmar to the southernmost town of Kawthaung (formerly Victoria
Point). Among the golf courses, Yangon Golf club (established on 1909),
Myanma Golf club (established in 1948), Yangon city Golf resort, PanHlaing
Golf resort, Hanthawaddy Golf resort near Bago, Ayethaya Golf resort in
Taunggyi, YeTaGunTaung Golf club in Mandalay, Kyaingtong and Lashio Golf
Clubs meet international standard with adequate facilities for tourists.

As most of the best golf courses in Myanmar are located around the capital
city and some major famous tourist sites of Bagan as Bagan Golf Resort,
Mandalay, Taunggyi, Kyaingtong and Lashio there are enormous potentials for
Golf holidays.
Moreover, the expenses like green fees, caddie fees and other service
charges are relatively cheap compared with the neighboring countries.

It is golden opportunity for those who wish to experience unspoilt natural
beauty and to enjoy a simple hospitality of Myanmar people besides playing
golf in exotic courses.

Please contact Mr. Myat for further information as he is a amateur golfer.
