An Unforgettable Adventure in Japan!
December 02, 2024by: Blasina Olowe - United StatesProgram: Travel For Teens: Japan Discovery and ServiceThis 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.
The days that you wish lasted for ever but go to soon
February 13, 2024by: Alex Smith - United StatesProgram: Travel For Teens: Japan Discovery and ServiceI 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.
