Golfing-Angkor Tour

Package Overview

The combination of playing golf in the shadow of one of the stellar attractions of Asia, the temples of Angkor, is proving a temptation too good to pass up for many golf enthusiasts. Siem Reap is the gateway to this archaeological wonder and has emerged as a destination in its own right with sophisticated restaurants and top quality hotels. Whilst the majestic Angkor Wat, the mysterious faces of the Bayon and a myriad of other temples will prove more than an engaging distraction, the world class golf courses at both the Phokeethra Country Club and the Angkor Golf Resort, a signature course designed by Nick Faldo, will lure the golfer into enjoying a challenging round or two at these beautifully presented newcomers on the international golf.
