Not included in pricing:
Spending Money: All excursions on the itinerary are included in tuition and some accommodations will provide breakfast/lunch.  Spending money will be needed for shopping, additional sightseeing, and food. 
Airfare:  Prices range from $700-$2600 depending on flight preferences.  Skyscanner is a great site to track flight prices. I have found the best flight prices are 6 to 3 months before scheduled travel. Less than 3 months and prices begin to rise. While there is less predictability, great deals do still come and go up until a month prior to travel.
