Golf in Asia
Our golf journey through Asia has taken us from the skyscrapers of Hong Kong to tropical islands, rainforest-framed fairways and some wonderfully unexpected rounds.
We’ve discovered that golfing in Asia is about much more than the course itself. It’s the people we’ve met, the journey to get there, and everything happening around the tee time that has made the journey unforgettable.
It’s reminded us that some of our most memorable rounds aren’t necessarily the ones that look best on a scorecard. We’ve played in busy cities, tropical settings and places we never expected to find a golf course at all.
Sometimes, getting to the first tee is half the story.
Our Golf Experiences in Asia
Golfing in Hong Kong gave us two very different experiences — from a unique private club tucked away on the island to a nine-hole course in the heart of one of the world’s great cities.
Our golf journey through Taiwan didn’t quite go as planned — but that’s what made it so memorable. A rainy day, a broken ATM, a generous stranger and an unexpected nine holes at Taipei Golf Club gave us a taste of Taiwanese golf we certainly won’t forget.
From Bali to North Sumatra, we’ve discovered golf courses surrounded by tropical landscapes, dramatic scenery and some wonderfully unexpected experiences along the way.
From Kuala Lumpur to tropical islands, Malaysia has given us some of our most varied golfing experiences — from bucket-list courses and hidden gems to rounds we never planned on playing.
Slow Travel & Sightseeing Across Asia
Our journey through Asia has been about far more than golf. We’ve explored bustling markets and quiet temples, searched out great coffee and local food, and taken the time to get to know the places and people along the way.
Our slow travel stories take you beyond the golf course and into the cities, neighborhoods and cultures that made our time in Asia so memorable.
