What airports should I plan to fly in and out of?

You’ll want to schedule your flight to arrive and depart from Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok (BKK).

Upon arrival, you will be greeted by your driver and journey 25 minutes to The St. Regis Hotel in Bangkok.

Please contact the Concierge Team if we can be of assistance with arranging alternative airport transportation or assist with booking flights.

What will the weather be like during our stay?

November in Thailand, expect warm temperatures in the mid-high 80’s F with an average 9 hours of sunshine during the day ending in balmy evenings.

What currencies are used in Thailand?

The currency utilized in Thailand is the Thai Baht (THB) and is currently trading at 1.00 USD to .028 THB.

Will I be able to get cash and use credit cards while in Thailand?

Cash is used for small purchases and street vendors in Thailand, while credit cards are widely accepted with Visa and MasterCard being the most popular. ATMs are available in the larger cities. It should be noted that American Express is not as widely accepted in Thailand.

How much cash should I bring?

We recommend bringing minimal US dollars, i.e. $75-100, with you, then accessing the local ATM’s upon arriving in Bangkok. The ATM’s will dispense the local currency and your bank will automatically calculate the exchange rate. Your own bank will typically provide the most favorable exchange rate available to you.

How many meals are included?

A full breakfast will be served every morning. The Garmany Golf Concierge Team can assist with making any reservations and recommendations for the group for additional meals not included in the Experience.

What is the cancellation policy for this Experience?

All deposits and final payments are non-refundable. However, we highly recommend purchasing a travel insurance program through Travel Guard and we will be happy to provide a quote or you can browse below

What if I want to play additional and optional golf?

There are plenty of noteworthy courses in Thailand! If any Guest wants to play additional golf, whether spur of the moment or arranged well in advance, your Garmany Golf Concierge Team or Driver Concierge will be at your service to arrange these optional rounds for you. Please consult the Concierge Team for golf options.

Can I play 36 holes a day if I want to?

Absolutely! Please let a member of our Concierge Team know and we will be happy to set up additional tee times for you.

Can I arrange to ship my golf clubs to Thailand?

Yes! We partner with Ship Sticks, the leaders in golf club shipping, and can arrange for your golf clubs to be shipped directly to your first hotel to await your arrival, and back to your home following your Experience. This is a great option to help ease the hassle of traveling and better yet, to prevent the terrible misfortune of missing or the delayed arrival of your golf clubs due to the airlines. 

Please contact the Garmany Golf Concierge Team at Experience@garmanygolf.com if we can be of any assistance to you.
