Our History

We started as Go! Go! Nihon in 2009 and have been growing ever since. Originally having helped over 5000 long-term students travel to Japan, we realised that some people were still missing out and decided to start running study trips in 2012 combining short-term study and fun-filled activities.

Our aim

Studytrip.com aims to offer students an experience that will change their lives forever. We have worked with clients who were unsure about traveling alone, but when they joined our tour and met wonderful new friends from all over the world, it completely changed their views on travelling and the global community

Our values

Studytrip.com’s most important value is that our customer comes first. We created these trips so that our clients can have a unique point of view, when it comes to immersing themselves in a new culture. Most of our staff have been in the exact same position at one point in time, having to make the same decisions on short or Long - term language travel. This means they are the perfect people to help guide clients to the right trip and give expert and personal advice on topics, that clients might not have thought about previously. We work with clients in various languages, where possible, we offer services in English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, German, Swedish, Korean and Japanese. Being able to offer this support gives a sense of comfort and familiarity throughout the process.

Trip Styles

Our trips are made to focus on language and cultural activities. The classes during the day are intense enough to feel that you are learning or brushing up on your language skills and the activities are fun and engaging, showcasing a balance between traditional and modern. But best of all, travellers will also have the freedom to explore on their own, which is especially nice for those who want to do something which is not included in the planned itinerary.

We offer package 3 categories, Bronze, Silver and Gold.

The only difference between the categories, is the number of activities included, Bronze being the least activity rich option and Gold, which is a full immersion into the culture.

Language classes will be the same no matter which the package is chosen, as will the accommodation, unless there are special preferences.
