Small Group Tour
Studytrip.com's only course outside of Tokyo. The former capital of Japan offers a completely different vibe from Tokyo. Ranging from food to architecture and even dialect, there is never a dull moment while in Kansai. With cities filled with spiritualism, the Kansai summer course is a different and condensed take on our most popular course up to date.
