Day 1: Welcome to Japan!
Touchdown in Tokyo, ready for your economics & business school trip to Japan to begin! Meet your Adventure Leader at arrivals, ready to transfer to the hotel. After unpacking, come together with the Adventure Leader for a trip briefing. Here, they’ll explain the week ahead, provide advice on adapting to Japanese culture, and give tips on keeping safe while travelling.
Make the first real glimpse of Tokyo one to remember, with a trip to the top of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building. The view of the city skyline from here is a must-see!
Day 2: Tokyo
- Discover Tokyo in the best way possible – with a private half-day sightseeing tour by bus. Get to know Japanese culture from those who know it better than anyone, with a local guide on board to point out all the city’s key landmarks.
- Visit the Currency Museum, which opened in November 1985 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Bank of Japan. Exhibitions include real currency artefacts which date all the way from ancient Japan to the present day.
- Get a glimpse of the busiest intersection in the world: the Shibuya Crossing! Stand back from the edge and watch as pedestrians surge across the junction – it’s arguably one of the most iconic sights in the city.
