5 Days / 4 Nights
Air Travel, Private Motorcoach, Metro / Public Transit
Every group travels differently. A small class might skip the tour bus and take the metro like locals, while a larger group might need a coach and a tighter schedule. We start with who’s traveling and what they want to get out of the trip, then plan the pace, transportation, and stops around that. Nothing is locked in until it works for your group.
Your Space
Full days or a lighter schedule, depending on your group’s age and energy.
Your Stops
Swap sites in or out to match your curriculum, interests, or performance schedule.
Your Logistics
Transportation, lodging, and timing planned around your group’s size and budget.
