Adventure Tours in Japan

such a amazing experience it was to go to japan! I learned so much about the culture there as well as some of the things they find apart f their every day to day activities that to us is so crazy! the views were genuinely incredible and amazing being able to witness

This trip was unforgettable! It offered an incredible blend of cultural immersion and fun activities, making every moment meaningful. I loved exploring Tokyo’s lively streets and experiencing the peaceful beauty of Kyoto. One of the most unique parts of the trip was visiting Miyagi, where we connected with high school students and learned about their traditions. The staff was amazing, ensuring every day was engaging and safe. From karate to sushi-making, this trip left me with new friends, lasting memories, and a deep respect for Japan’s culture.

Everything I hoped for and more! Meaningful work and so much fun. Made great friends too. I learned to adapt to new environments and to think on my feet. Furthermore, it has also been a great way for me to disconnect from my daily routine and to relax and recharge. It has helped me to find a renewed sense of energy and motivation to tackle the challenges of everyday life.

Hey Alexander! Wow! It really seems like this trip helped you on so many levels. We're so glad! And we hope you join us again!

Rustic delivered an unforgettable experience. I’ve traveled a lot, but never have I connected with indigenous cultures like this. The learning was intense, and I came away a better person. The challenges during the trip only made the rewards greater, especially the interactions with locals and getting to understand their way of life. The team was on point—always checking in, ensuring we were good, and starting every conversation with genuine concern for our well-being.

Hi Lok! Thanks for being such a gracious "lab rat!" Haha! We're so thrilled you had a great time! Thanks for joining us. We hope you join us again next summer!

Japan was a great place to experience, especially in this point of my life. We saw many staples and famous parts of japanese cultures, and experienced mostly if not all we could on this trip. This trip was unforgettable.

Hi Santiago! We're thrilled you had an unforgettable trip! Thank you so much for joining us on this adventure, and we hope to see you next summer!

I had I amazing time while I as in Japan and our guides were a lot of fun to talk to. My favorite part was the country side by far, the land scape was gorgeous. The rooms we stayed out were amazing especially the hot spring. The food situation was nice, we had some free days ( we went to a mall or store and got to choose the place) and days where we had group dinners and it was a great experience. 100% recommend this trip.

Traveling with TFT has been the most character building experience that I have done. Through out the entire trip, I was pushed to leave my comfort zone; and I grew into a far stronger person than I was before the trip. Some of most memorable moments I had during this trip, that I grew the most from were: when we interviewed the lady who witnessed the bombing of Hiroshima, the tea ceremonies, the trip to Hakone and Tono, and just talking to the natives of Japan. All of these experiences helped through the darkest times of my life, and I will continue to reflect of these moments as I continue to evolve. Thank you for the life changing experiences

This trip was an amazing experience! I love all the pictures from this trip. It was well-organized but had enough flexibility that we had some free time to shop. The service portion of this trip was excellent. We got to form lifelong friendships with students at a Japanese school and work for relief victims in the beautiful northern plains of Japan!
