Can foreign visitors play golf at Japan’s top courses?

Yes. Many of Japan’s prestigious courses are members-only, but Elite Golf Japan holds direct partnerships with 36 courses across 14 prefectures, so international visitors can play without a membership or member introduction. We arrange the booking, guest paperwork, rental clubs, and caddies; an English-speaking on-course host and airport transfers are available on request.

Without a local contact, most top Japanese clubs are effectively closed to overseas golfers: reservations run through Japanese-only systems and many require a member introduction. As a licensed travel arrangement operator with direct course partnerships, we book on your behalf, complete the guest registration each club requires, and arrange rental clubs and caddies. An English-speaking on-course host and airport transfers are available as options.
