Flight to Tokyo, Japan
Some students may need to depart their home city on July 10 to arrive in Tokyo on July 11. Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by our staff and enjoy a complimentary transfer (for flights in designated times) from the airport to our hotel. For those requiring, we are happy to assist you with arranging flights to and from the program. If you prefer, you may be dropped off directly at our hotel and meet your staff there. For our North American students, we offer a chaperoned group flight from New York or Los Angeles to Tokyo departing on July 10.

Return Flight Home from Tokyo, Japan
For your return from Japan, our leaders help you to check-in and remain in the airport until flights in designated times have departed. For our North American students, we offer a chaperoned flight to New York or Los Angeles. You may choose to join that flight and arrange transfers (if required) at suitable times after the group has cleared customs and immigration in the USA to your home city.

Meals & New Cuisines
Part of the excitement of traveling to Japan is diving into the incredible local cuisine, so come with an open mind and a taste for adventure! From fresh sushi and hearty ramen to savory okonomiyaki and sizzling yakiniku (Japanese BBQ), you’ll get to try a variety of authentic Japanese dishes. There is plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables and many noodle dishes. Please note picky eaters may get frustrated as there are limited North-American style options available.

Dietary Restrictions & Allergies
Although we aim to satisfy the choosiest of eaters and most dietary requests, there are challenges in Japan. Due to the limited options, we cannot accommodate participants with Celiac disease, or those that adhere to a strictly gluten free or vegan diet.

Fish, sesame and soy are common ingredients in Japanese cuisine. Due to the frequency they are served and likelihood for cross contamination, we cannot accommodate participants with an anaphylactic allergy to fish, sesame or soy. We strongly discourage participants with a non-anaphylactic allergy to these ingredients from traveling to Japan in general and may require a doctor’s note clearing you to participate in this program.

We welcome hearing from you to discuss your individual allergy and dietary restrictions.

Vaccinations & Medication Restrictions
We recommend you follow the advice of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), and consult with your physician for current immunizations and medication required for travelers to Japan. These recommendations may change from time to time.

Most medications are permitted in Japan with no paperwork or permission required if the total amount brought is less than a 1 month supply. This includes Psychotropics. Make sure that all medicines are brought in the original packaging/container in your carry-on luggage. All prescription medications should be accompanied by a doctor’s note. No need to declare them at Customs.

For medications containing a narcotic or stimulant, you must apply for/receive a permit before your Japan arrival regardless of the quantity brought. If your teen is traveling with any medication containing an active ingredient on this list, we will assist you in receiving supporting documentation from the Narcotics Control Department in Tokyo.

The medication Adderall is NOT allowed to be brought into Japan by law. We suggest that participants who take this medicine consult with their doctor for alternative medication during their Japan trip.
