Choosing a camp in Japan
Japan's summer camps range from Tokyo day programmes in Shibuya and Shinjuku to residential camps in Hokkaido — Niseko and the coast at Iwanai — and community-based programmes as far as Kamaishi in Tohoku. Science and technology themes feature strongly alongside outdoor adventure.
For families the draw is cultural depth: children experience Japanese daily life, food and etiquette first-hand, whether in the capital or in small-town Japan, with both day and residential formats available.
