Japan school tours offer one of the greatest learning experiences you will find; on this educational tour in Japan students will experience first hand a culture far more beautiful and diverse than a textbook could ever portray. Your students will develop a greater understanding of Japanese society and history as they visit the many temples and shrines across the country, including Tokyo’s most famous sites, a Ninja Village at Mt Fuji, and Hiroshima’s Peace Memorial Park and Museum.
