Moving Art in Greater Tokyo
Japan has a rich history of traditional, modern, and experiential art, and Greater Tokyo is one of the best places to dive in! On this two-day course, visitors will explore traditional and modern marvels in Tokyo, before heading to Kanagawa Prefecture to explore the country’s natural beauty.
Welcome Suica
For this course, we recommend JR EAST’s Welcome Suica. Welcome Suica is a pass that makes exploring the Tokyo, Kanagawa, and the Greater Tokyo area more affordable and convenient; simply tap the card on the ticket gate, and hop aboard! Welcome Suica can be used on JR EAST trains, subways, and busses, so getting around is a cinch, and doesn’t require a ticket. It can even be used to make purchases at convenience stores and vending machines!
