SHENZHEN · GUANGDONG · HONG KONG BORDER
Shenzhen holds the largest golf complex on the planet at Guanlan — twelve courses, a Guinness record — plus championship members’ clubs in the city and the Hong Kong border fifteen minutes away. A morning round in Shenzhen, dinner in Hong Kong: it is that kind of week.
THE GOLF IN SHENZHEN
Guanlan is the number: twelve 18-hole courses on one enormous property between Shenzhen and Dongguan — a golf city with its own hotel, spa and reservoirs. Every card below includes how a visitor actually gets on the tee.
SHENZHEN · 12 COURSES · 216 HOLES · GUINNESS RECORD
The largest golf club on earth. Pick your courses by appetite: the World Cup venue, the Ozaki, the Faldo, the Annika — a week disappears into it happily. Our job is sequencing them so your handicap survives.
BEST OCT–APR
RESORT ACCESS · STAY & PLAY
SHENZHEN · VOLVO CHINA OPEN VENUE · CHAMPIONSHIP
The Volvo China Open venue and one of the toughest championship tests in the south — long, firm, bunkered without mercy. A serious golfer’s serious day out.
BEST OCT–APR
MEMBERS’ CLUB · CGT ACCESS ONLY
SHENZHEN · ONE OF THE OLDEST CLUBS IN THE SOUTH
A mid-eighties survivor in the middle of the city — compact, mature, walking-only culture and greens that have been rolling since before the skyline existed. Our favourite twilight round in Guangdong.
BEST OCT–APR
VISITOR ACCESS · BOOKED VIA CGTShenzhen is the volume answer for golf-hungry groups: seven days, five different courses, none of them more than half an hour from the hotel. Arrive via Hong Kong, play Guanlan, cross the border for a night or two, fly home from either side — the logistics are ours, the fun is yours.
For the non-golfers — Hong Kong itself: the peak, the harbour, dim sum economics. On the Shenzhen side: OCT art districts, the Bay waterfront, and Cantonese dinner streets the tourists have not found.
A WEEK, ROUGHLY
A three-day spine your plan grows from — arrivals, tee times and the day your non-golfers remember. Every private itinerary is built around your flight times, not a template.
Touch down at HK airport 1h · Shenzhen Bao’an direct flights, meet your English-speaking driver, and — if the flight lands before mid-afternoon — take Mission Hills Shenzhen·Dongguan as the opening round. Evening is kept deliberately loose: hot pot, an early night, or whatever the jet lag votes for.
A full day at Genzon Golf Club — and if yesterday's round went quickly, the front nine again after lunch. Non-golfers get the day their way while the golf runs.
A morning without an alarm, then the part of Shenzhen people actually remember — Hong Kong itself: the peak, the harbour, dim sum economics. Transfer to HK airport 1h · Shenzhen Bao’an direct flights timed to your flight.
WHERE WE PUT YOU
Hotel and villa picks scored on one metric above all: minutes from the first tee, then breakfast, then the view. In that order.
Inside the Guanlan complex — the twelve-course buffet is your hotel garden.
City towers with the border crossing and the best dinner streets within a walk.
COURSE FILES
Each course has its own file: the honest description, who designed it, when it plays best, and how a visitor actually gets on the tee. Open one, or ask us to sequence them into a week.
ASKED BEFORE YOU ASK
And the honest answers. Everything else — visas, weather, your handicap versus that back nine — is one message away.
October – April (dry season) — that is the honest window. The greens keep their condition because these are resort-standard courses, and your planner will push you inside the sweet season rather than the cheapest one.
Some of China's best courses are members-first. We hold long-term club relationships precisely so visitors don't have to — tee times are arranged as part of the trip, with caddies, carts and the driver between hotel and clubhouse.
One message with your dates and handicaps. Within a business day you get a day-by-day plan — courses matched to your game, hotels near the tees, drivers, transfers — and a single fixed all-in price. No deposit to see the draft.
DOORS, TRAINS & TEE SHEETS
Fly into Hong Kong and cross by car to Guanlan in about an hour, or land at Shenzhen Bao’an directly. Between courses and cities our drivers handle the rest — including the border paperwork timing, which is exactly the part you do not want to learn on the day.
