Chiang Mai, Phuket & Bangkok
This luxury golf tour of Thailand combines tee times at top Thai golf courses, accommodation at Thailand’s best luxury resorts and hotels, and customized private touring of beautiful landscapes, traditional Thai culture, and the vibrant cities of Bangkok and Chiang Mai.
Begin at the luxurious Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai, an atmospheric resort in northern Thailand surrounded by terraced rice paddies and views of mountains. One morning, enjoy a round of golf at one of Chiang Mai’s best golf courses, such as Alpine Golf Resort Chiang Mai, a 27-hole golf course in a breathtaking setting among forested hills; Summit Green Valley Golf Course, with palm-lined fairways and several lakes; or
Chiang Mai Highlands Golf and Spa Resort, a Schmidt-Curley-designed golf course in a rolling green landscape. During private cultural touring around Chiang Mai, browse crafts districts specializing in ceramics, silver, teak furniture, paper umbrellas and silk weavings. Visit revered mountaintop temples and Bhubing Palace (the royal winter residence) and participate in a morning alms ceremony. Also enjoy ample time at leisure to experience the resort's spa, swimming pool, cooking
school and other facilities.
Next, fly to the island of Phuket in southern Thailand for time at a top luxury beach resort. One morning, enjoy a tee time at one of Phuket’s best golf courses, such as the Blue Canyon Golf & Country Club, a legendary golf course built on the grounds of a former tin mine and rubber plantation, or Red Mountain, another challenging golf course carved into the rocky terrain of a historic tin mine and
landscaped with native plants. During ample leisure time, perhaps relax on the beach, go for a swim in the pool or indulge in spa treatments. Upon request, Artisans of Leisure can arrange additional activities, such as cooking classes, yoga sessions, scuba diving excursions and boat cruises to nearby islands.
Conclude in fascinating Bangkok. Enjoy a private long-tail boat tour through the city’s canals and visit the most important cultural sites, such as the Grand Palace, Wat Phra Kaew, Wat Pho and Wat Arun. Learn about Buddhist practices and influences on daily life in Thailand. Explore colorful markets selling textiles, flowers, food and Buddhist items. Also enjoy ample time to indulge in treatments at the hotel spa, relax by
the swimming pool, shop for exquisite Thai art and handicrafts and dine at some of Southeast Asia's best restaurants.
Upon request, this tour can be extended to include time in other destinations in Thailand or elsewhere in Southeast Asia.

This was truly the trip of a lifetime…In New Zealand, all six of us caught trout, went horse riding, helicoptering, jet boating…all the while being cared for by the most wonderful people ever.
~ P.F., Gwynedd Valley, PA
Peru was absolutely outstanding. Our guide gave me the encouragement and help I needed in climbing to the very top of Huayna Picchu – an accomplishment of which I will always be thankful!!
~ P.C., Smyrna, GA
We had a wonderful time in Asia!!! Highlights in Indonesia were the airplane view of the volcanoes on Java, walking each level of Borobudur by ourselves with no one else around, the trek to Selogriyo and its breathtaking terraced rice fields…
