Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Are we responsible for dinners, or are they included in the price?
All lunches and dinners are included in the tour price, except for the dinner on the last day during the trip home.
Do I need to register myself if I want to go with my child?
Yes, if you plan to travel with your child, both of you need to register for the tour as separate participants.
How much is it for a parent to upgrade and stay by themselves or with just their child?
There is an additional cost for parents who wish to stay in a room by themselves or with just their child. Our tour pricing is based on four students per room, so any changes to this arrangement will result in an upgrade fee. The exact amount will be determined once all participants are registered and the rooming list is finalized. We will notify you of the additional cost at that time.
My child only wants to go if they can share a room with me. Is this possible?
Yes, we can arrange for you and your child to share a room together. However, since our pricing is based on four students per room, there will be an additional cost for this arrangement. We’ll provide the final cost once the rooming list is confirmed.

Can I contact my child during the tour?
