Money & Budgeting

Japan is a shopper’s paradise – and on this page we cover everything about organising your trip finances so you can make the most of that.

You’ll find guides on ways to save money on your trip (so you can spend more on souvenirs), give some ideas on how much money you might actually need – and explain more about changing your currency to yen.
