        Your tee time is not the time to arrive at the entrance. Work backwards through check-in, bag drop and the course's warm-up arrangements before choosing the pickup time.

        Confirm the course and the correct entrance

        A golf complex can have several courses and entrances. Send the booking confirmation, golfer count, golf bags and accompanying guests. Agree the waiting area and return-call procedure, and update the transport plan if the tee time or post-round meal changes.

        Working back from tee time

        Each course has its own rules

        Requirements range from being on the tee 5 minutes before to checking in 30 minutes ahead, so please confirm with your course.

        Travel, buffer and warm-up

        We add drive time, a traffic buffer, check-in and warm-up to set the pickup.

        Early tee times

        The driver arrives ahead of time; packing your bag the night before helps.

        Clubs and vehicle

        Tell us how many bags

        Golf bags are long and bulky; for four players, a 7-seater with the third row folded or a 16-seater keeps them all inside.

        A helping hand

        The driver will load your bags and hand them over at the bag drop.

        After your round

        The driver waits

        Throughout the round and lunch at the clubhouse.

        Afternoon plans

        Heading to a hotel, office or the airport afterwards? Let us know and we will add it to the itinerary.

        Tee time is not the car's arrival time

        Ask the course when players should arrive for bag drop, registration and reaching the tee. Work backwards using hotel pickups and breakfast needs. Count golf bags separately from suitcases, especially before an airport transfer. Agree shared waiting or separate returns if players finish or dine at different times.

        Choosing the vehicle by bags, not just golfers

        Courses outside the city

        For courses near Phan Thiet (about 167 km, around 3.5 hours) or Vung Tau (about 95 km, 2 to 2.5 hours), a morning tee time often means leaving Ho Chi Minh City before 05:00. Many groups travel the afternoon before and stay near the course.

        Early starts cost the same

        There is no night surcharge for pre-dawn pick-ups and no luggage fee for golf bags. Online bookings get 10% off the quote.

        From the plane to the first tee

        Arriving on a morning flight? The driver tracks your landing at Tan Son Nhat, with no waiting fee, and can take you straight to the course.

        Tournament days

        For a company tournament, the organisers often need one extra 7-seater to carry trophies, gifts and banners to the course ahead of the players. Pick-ups from several hotels can be grouped by area so each vehicle arrives on time.

        Send course name, tee time and number of bags, and we reply with a pick-up time.
