Bangkok, Thailand February 4, 2008 -- Golfasian , a leading Thailand golf tour operator, today announced the first of their new luxury Golf Lifestyle ExperienceTM tours. The new golf tours are aimed at the high end golf lifestyle travel market — the fastest growing segment of the golf travel industry, and allow participants to have a total golf destination experience. Through these two tours, golfers will get to play the premier courses in each destination, many of which are normally reserved for members only. Moreover, each participant will get to see attractions and take part in activities with local experts, revealing the best resorts, sights, and adventures in each destination.

“Golfasian’s extension into the outdoor lifestyle experience travel market is a natural evolution for our luxurious golf holiday packages,” said Golfasian’s Managing Director Mark Siegel. “These exciting trips are much more than a golf vacation. They are a total exploration of golf, history and culture that opens up Thailand for what it really is — dynamic, cosmopolitan, cultured, affordable, and a safe country. The golf is world class, the accommodations old world colonial luxurious, and the sights are exotic beyond description, and that’s only part of the allure. From the modern capital city of Bangkok to the thousand year old culture of ancient Siam, from the sunny beaches of Phuket to the mountains of Chiang Mai, the Thailand Golf Expedition delivers the ultimate in a total golfing lifestyle experience.”

The best of “ Thailand Golf Expedition” covers the four top golf destinations within Thailand – Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Kanchanaburi (River Kwai), and Hua Hin. Thailand’s best golf courses, including Thai Country Club (site of Tiger Woods’ PGA victory in 1997), are offered in the package. Top resorts in each destination showcase authentic Thai lifestyle, unique service, and colonial period influences. In keeping with the expedition theme, participants will experience soft adventure activities and explore historical and cultural sights. For example, seeing the traditional way of Thai life by long-tailed boat, elephant riding in northern Thailand, visiting the world renowned “Golden Triangle”, trekking to “Hellfire Pass” in the Thai-Burmese, jungle and up-close live tiger feedings are all included in the once-in-a-lifetime tour. Additional programs are available including Thai cooking classes, spa and massage treatments, and tours of an authentic floating market. The best of “Thailand Golf Expedition” culminates with a gala farewell party for all participants at a local seafood restaurant overlooking the Gulf of Thailand. An optional Phuket excursion is also available for those who want to experience golf on this idyllic tropical island.
