School trip to Nikko (3 days) = 6000 yen ($60.00 €45.80)

My son is going to make a 3-days school trip to Nikko. It costs 6000 yen ($60.00 €45.80). In elementary school, 5th grade (10 or 11 years old) and 6th grade students make school trips. At my son's school, 5th grade and 6th grade go on trips separately, at different seasons. Both are go to Nikko where is a historical place located approximately 140 km north of Tokyo. Here are photos of Nikko.
