JAPAN
Ancient temples, shrines and castles stand in stark contrast to the super-fast shinkansens, electronics district of Tokyo and to the fact that this is the second largest economy in the world.
And it is these contrasts between the ancient and the ultra-modern that makes Japan such an interesting and fascinating place to visit and explore.
The most affordable and convenient way to tour Japan is by JR Pass staying in a combination of youth hostels, budget hotels and ryokans. It is necessary to purchase a JR voucher before arriving in Japan and then on arrival this voucher is exchanged for a rail pass and rail sectors booked.
Often groups combine a tour of Japan with a homestay visit, staying with the families of their sister school and spending some days at the sister school.
