Exploring the 2-Day Itinerary

Day 1: From Tokyo to Tsuru Country Club and Gotemba

The journey begins with a pick-up from your Tokyo hotel, where your private chauffeur, likely to be fluent in English or Chinese, will meet you. Traveling in a comfortable Toyota Alphard or HiAce, you’ll leave the bustle of Tokyo behind, heading west along the scenic Chuo Expressway. This drive itself is part of the charm—through lush countryside and with fleeting glimpses of Mount Fuji if weather permits.

Your first stop is Tsuru Country Club, a well-maintained 18-hole course that’s known for its lush fairways and strategic layout. The course is rated highly, and the reviews mention its “well-kept greens and beautiful surroundings,” making it a great start for both seasoned players and enthusiasts looking to enjoy a relaxed round. Tee times are typically around 10:00 AM, offering a gentle start and plenty of time to soak in the scenic views.

The included lunch at the clubhouse is an authentic Japanese experience—think curry rice, tonkatsu, or udon—with views overlooking the course, adding a calming backdrop to your meal. Post-golf, a quick transfer takes you to Gotemba City, just about 45 minutes away, where your hotel awaits.

Your hotel in Gotemba features modern rooms with breakfast included, located conveniently near shops and restaurants. This gives you the freedom to explore local izakayas, sushi bars, or yakiniku spots for dinner, or simply unwind with a good soak if your accommodation has a hot spring option (which can be arranged upon request).

Day 2: Scenic Golf and Optional Elite Play

Starting with breakfast, you’ll then head out to either Gotemba Country Club or, if you’re feeling lucky and want an upgrade, the Taiheiyo Club Gotemba West. Both courses offer spectacular views of Mt. Fuji, but the latter steps up the experience with its reputation as one of Japan’s most exclusive courses, often hosting professional tournaments.

Gotemba Country Club is known for its wide fairways and panoramic vistas, offering a relaxed yet challenging round for intermediate and advanced players. The optional upgrade to Taiheiyo Club Gotemba West is perfect for those craving an elite-level game, but it requires advance notice and careful planning due to limited availability.

Lunchtime is again at the clubhouse restaurant, serving more authentic Japanese golf fare. After your second round, you can browse the pro shop or unwind with a drink before heading back to Tokyo. The return trip in the late afternoon should get you back around 6:30–7:30 PM, depending on traffic.
