BANGKOK-KANCHANABURI-BAN KAO

Depart from Bangkok by van/coach to Kanchanaburi

First day's golf is at the Mission Hills Golf Club Kanchanaburi, one of the most beautiful courses in western Thailand. With its fairways lined with thousands of mature palms, the course itself coils round gently sloping hills and the timber-clad clubhouse, making this a truly memorable golfing experience, and a great way to start a tour of this fascinating region of the country.

The second day of the golf tour begins at the Evergreen Hills Golf Club & Resort, located in one of Kanchanaburi’s many beautiful jungle-covered valleys. The course is not too long and welcomes players of mixed ability. Water comes into play on many of the holes, and a long dog-leg par-4 17th is a course favorite.

Wednesday | Golf Cruise Day 3 |

SAI YOK-SAI YOK YAI-BAN HIN DAT

Breakfast on board.

Some have compared the River Kwai Golf & Country Club – ideal for both fun and relaxation – design, layout, and scenery to those found in Vietnam, offering you the added experience of playing a round of golf on a Vietnam-like course, with its rugged peculiar beauty within mountainous terrain in a tranquil setting. With water in play on most holes, several long tee shots to be found out of your bag, a few blind greens, and its undulating terrain with several slopes to climb, this is both a very natural and at times quite testing golf course. An 18-hole par 72 course that you’ll not soon forget!

• Lunch at a local restaurant in Sai Yoke National Park, near the Sai Yok Yai waterfalls.
• Back to the boat and continue cruising.
• The rest of the afternoon at leisure!
• “Farewell Dinner” and overnight on board.

• Disembark and return to Kanchanaburi by coach.
• Visit to Wat Tham Khaopoon, a Buddhist temple which served as a big camp of World War II. There is a middle cave containing stalactites and stalagmites and many remarkable Buddha images. Behind the temple enjoy a marvelous view down the valley of the Kwai Noi River.
  Then, visit the Thailand-Burma Railway Center Museum, an interactive museum which provides a remarkable research and information centre dedicated to presenting the story of the Thailand-Burma Railway. Also visit to the Donrak War Cemetery which contains the remains of 6,982 Allied prisoners of war who perished during the construction of the “Death Railway”. Continue to the world-famous bridge over the River Kwai. The sturdy Iron Bridge spanning the River Kwai Yai, which was a crucial part of the Death Railway, was built in some 16 months by Allied prisoners of war and Asian conscripts. The bridge was destroyed in Allied bombing raids towards the end of World War II and was later rebuilt by the Japanese as war reparations.
• Lunch at the Rabiang FA Restaurant, near the confluence of the two rivers Kwai Yai and Kwai Noi.
• Proceed to Bangkok
• Arrive Bangkok and transfer to your hotel in Bangkok downtown.
