Itinerary

Day 1: Overnight flight
Hop on a plane heading west and cross the international date line, because you’ve got a big date with Japan—and all that ramen isn’t going to eat itself.
Day 2: Arrive in Tokyo

- Land at the airport and meet an EF representative.

- Meet your Tour Director and get deets on tomorrow’s schedule.
