Chiang Rai Golf Courses | Play Golf in Chiang Rai

Just over 160 kilometers to the north of Chiang Mai is the city of Chiang Rai. Originally designated as the capital of the ‘Lanna Kingdom’, this was subsequently transferred to Chiang Mai, and the city’s status declined. Nowadays golfers traveling to Chiang Rai can enjoy 3 internal standard golf courses. Santiburi Chiang Rai in particular is one of the best courses in all Thailand, while the other two are enjoyable as well. 

For golfing holidays away from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok, Chiang Rai provides the ideal setting for great golf and relaxation. Try one of our Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai golf packages with private river boat travel between both northern Thailand golf destinations. Chiang Rai is also great if you like to combine golf and spa or just want a taste of authentic Thai culture. Golf tours in Chiang Rai, offer a completely authentic Thai golf adventure.

Santiburi Chiang Rai Country Club


(beautiful Robert Trent Jones Jr. course is among the best in Thailand)

Golfers living in Thailand will tell you that Santiburi in Chiang Mai is one of their favorite golf courses in Thailand, and this is no small compliment! Santiburi Country Club was the first Chiang Rai golf course. The Chiang Rai Robert Trent Jones Jr designed Santiburi Country Club covers vast fields with excellent placement of holes and an abundance of water hazards and bunkers. The golf course is widely regarded as one of the best conceived and maintained golf courses in Asia.

Waterford Valley Golf Club & Resort


(hilly, challenging, and scenic layout)

Set in the Wiang Chai Hills Waterford Valley Golf Course is 40 minutes from the city of Chiang Rai in one of Thailand’s most attractive and most cooling areas. The Waterford golf course is mostly flat as it is built upon a plateau, surrounded by lush valleys and mountains. The beautiful mountains of the North provide a pleasant distraction to a day on the fairways, which trees, shrubs, and bushes surround themselves and make this par 72 layout one of the most scenic in Thailand.

    • Went with my brother and our non-golfing wives on a weeklong golf and cultural holiday in Hanoi. Superb attention to detail by Sophie who was very patient as we made several changes prior to finalization of booking. Drivers were very prompt and friendly. Tour guide "Hiro" who led us to an exploration of Hanoi military history was awesome and we learned so much from him. Played Dai Lai Star and BRG Legend, great design and scenery. Enjoyed also our cruise of Halong Bay. Just wish we had the time to play another round or 2. We are now planning a golf trip to either Penang, Phuket or Yogyakarta and cant wait to use GolfAsian again.

    • Four friends, 6 rounds of golf in Kuala Lumpur and Johor Bahru. Arrangements by GolfAsian were great and all courses were different but good quality. All transfer drivers were helpful and punctual but our favourite was "Johnson" in KL. Minor criticisms - water was not supplied and our first 9 at Kota Permai was marred by major fairway renovation. All in all we had a fun time and we will be back.

    • GolfAsian.com booked a 13 day golf package for our group. The package included 7 awesome courses from Bangkok to Hau Hin. In addition, they booked some day excursions from spa treatments, river boat cruises to Temple visits. From the moment we touched down a driver had a sign and the tour guide spoke great English and was very polite. I strongly recommend GolfAsian.
