Who we are

“We plan the whole trip — not just the tee time.”

Monterey Golf Tours plans custom multi-day golf trips on the Monterey Peninsula — courses, lodging, and tee times handled end to end. We work with groups of any size, from a twosome to 400 players, and put together trips ranging from a quick weekend to a full week covering every major course on the peninsula.

As an IAGTO-contracted travel partner with Pebble Beach Resorts®, we can book and coordinate tee times at Pebble Beach Golf Links®, Spyglass Hill Golf Course®, The Links at Spanish Bay®, Del Monte Golf Course®, and The Hay™, alongside the rest of the peninsula's courses.

Every Monterey golf package we build starts with understanding your group — how many players, how many rounds, what mix of bucket-list courses versus hidden gems, and where everyone wants to stay. We match the itinerary to the group, not the other way around. The result is a coordinated Monterey Peninsula golf trip where the logistics are handled before you land.

We book across all 14 courses on the Peninsula and coordinate stays at 11 vetted hotels from downtown Monterey to Carmel Valley. If you're looking for a starting point, our sample itineraries show what 3-, 4-, 5-, and 7-day trips typically look like.

Beyond the courses, the Monterey Peninsula has enough to keep non-golfers and rest days fully occupied — the 17-Mile Drive®, Cannery Row, Carmel-by-the-Sea village, wine tasting in Carmel Valley, and coastal hiking along Point Lobos. We can point you toward our Peninsula experiences guide if you want to plan the off-course days too.

Founder

Sean Schaeffer founded Monterey Golf Tours as part of a family of golf trip planning sites he operates across California's top golf destinations. The same team behind Golf the High Sierra — covering the Reno/Tahoe/Graeagle region — handles Monterey Peninsula trip planning under the same model: coordinated, multi-day golf packages built around the group, not the other way around.

Every trip is planned with direct access to the Peninsula's courses and hotels. No middlemen, no call-center itineraries. If you have questions about how a specific trip would work, contact us directly or check the FAQ.

Common questions

What does Monterey Golf Tours actually handle?

We handle courses, lodging, and tee times end to end. That means selecting the right courses for your group's skill level and schedule, booking accommodations at Peninsula hotels, and coordinating tee times — including at Pebble Beach Resorts® properties through our IAGTO contract. We do not book flights or meals unless you specifically ask.

How large or small a group can you accommodate?

We work with groups of any size, from a twosome to 400 players. Small groups get the same level of planning attention as large corporate outings.

Is Monterey Golf Tours an authorized Pebble Beach booking agent?

Yes. We are an IAGTO-contracted travel partner with Pebble Beach Resorts®, which means we can book tee times at Pebble Beach Golf Links®, Spyglass Hill® Golf Course, The Links at Spanish Bay®, Del Monte™ Golf Course, and The Hay™ directly through official channels.

How long does a typical Monterey golf trip last?

Most groups plan 3 to 7 days. A 4-day trip covers the four main courses comfortably; 5 days lets you add Carmel Valley Ranch or Black Horse. We build the schedule around how many rounds your group wants to play.

When is the best time to golf on the Monterey Peninsula?

May through October is peak season — fog typically burns off by 10am and afternoon conditions are ideal. April and November offer shoulder-season pricing with the same course conditions. Winter brings more coastal weather but the Peninsula plays year-round. Morning tee times between 8–10am get the most consistent conditions in any season.

Why choose the Monterey Peninsula over other golf destinations?

The Peninsula concentrates more world-ranked courses within a 15-mile radius than almost anywhere in the world — Pebble Beach Golf Links®, Spyglass Hill®, Pasatiempo, and Carmel Valley Ranch are all within easy range of each other. You can play four genuinely different course styles in four days without driving more than 30 minutes between any two.
