Business & Technology in Japan

This seven-day Tokyo-based trip immerses students in Japan’s dynamic economy and technology scene. It begins with panoramic city views from the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, followed by a sushi-making experience and exploration of Harajuku’s eclectic culture.

 The itinerary includes visits to cutting-edge sites like the National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation, Toyota’s Mega Web, and the Panasonic Centre, with additional stops at Akihabara and Shibuya Crossing. Students will also experience the historical and cultural side of Tokyo at the Edo Tokyo Museum and Tokyo Stock Exchange, and take a day trip to Hakone for hot springs and views of Mount Fuji. 

The trip wraps up with a Taiko drumming class and a free day before heading home, offering a comprehensive look at Japan’s technological and cultural landscape.
