In fact, since the month before last (July), students from Kurashiki Commercial High School have been studying with us as interns.
They are learning about the travel industry in a practical way by researching sales areas, planning tours, making flyers and videos for advertising, and so on, with the aim of actually selling city walking tours and making participants happy.
As part of the activities, our staff and students have made a promotional video for the tour together!
That video is here↓
We are also introduce a few production scenes
Acting instruction is underway.
Even everyday movements require a little ingenuity when it comes to filming.
Our staff, who specialise in video production, give them pointers.
It must have been a good experience for them, as it was a different kind of tension from their usual work!

『What was your experience of video production?』
The high school interns who completed the filming were,
“We did our best in the short time we had. I also found out what to expect when conducting the tour. It was a food tour, so by the end my stomach was in pain” – They said.
It seems to have been a good experience. I would be even happier if this could get them interested in the travel industry as well.
There are still a few more internships for high school students. In the next round, we plan to further shape the tours organised by the high school students.
TAKAHASHIGAWA TRAVEL for organising tours around Kurashiki
Based in Kurashiki, we create activities and tours of the attractive contents of the Takahashi River basin and sell them mainly to visitors to Japan. We can also customise tours that are not listed here to meet your requirements on an order-made basis. Kurashiki City is not only home to the Bikan Historical Quarter, but also to many other attractive places. It has a large park close to the Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter, and is famous for its Sakatsu pottery; Tamashima, a port town where tea culture has taken root; and Kojima, the birthplace of domestic jeans, where you can see the Great Seto Bridge up close. We do not just walk around the towns and return home, but organise trips where you can learn more about the area and leave with a lasting impression through experiences that can only be had in those places. Please contact, for more information.
