At Jaltour we pride ourselves on being one of the UK’s most established and experienced Japan-bound travel specialists.  Our dedicated team offer advice based on first hand experience as we have all travelled extensively in Japan.  Jaltour actively promotes various types of travel, ranging from educational tours for students and teachers to company incentive tours and overseas business exchanges.   The many contacts we have established as a leader in the travel industry allow us to provide a professional service to all our customers.

School trips are often a highlight of a student’s school experience and create lasting memories of school life.  In recent years, there has been a shift from city sightseeing or study tours to more adventuresome travel.  Students have been combining the comfort of city hotels with more challenging cultural activities.  Jaltour has responded to these trends by proposing a wide range of colourful and exciting programmes to satisfy all travellers, while keeping in mind the importance of student safety at all times.
