Trip Costs  Japan offers one of the biggest misconceptions - it's expensive. It isn't.  The founder of the Sushi Club of Houston, Carl Rosa, has traveled to Japan nearly 20 times and he knows a good deal when it surfaces.  Utilzing Carl as our tour guide for every trip, you will see all that Japan has to offer without the cost. Although every trip differs in cost, single travelers can expect the entire base cost of the trip (including airfare, all hotels and a full 7-day bullet train pass) to cost approximately $1,600.  Couples, who share the cost of the hotels, can expect to pay even less.  We get the best deals with a free tour guide.
