There’s never been a better time to explore Japan than now! As of March 2024, the Australian dollar is thriving against the Japanese Yen, with an impressive exchange rate of 97 Japanese Yen to the Aussie dollar. This favourable exchange rate translates to significant savings for travellers, with the cost of food and drinks coming in at less than half of what you’d typically spend in Australia or New Zealand.
Additionally, hitting the slopes in Japan is a budget-friendly adventure, with ski lift day passes priced around $55 AUD or NZD. Compare this to the hefty $250 to $300 you’d shell out for similar passes in Australia or New Zealand, and it’s clear that Japan offers exceptional value for snow enthusiasts. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to make the most of your travel budget and experience the wonders of Japan firsthand!
But it’s not just about the savings. Japan welcomes visitors with open arms. The people are friendly, and the food is delicious! From savoury ramen to delicate sushi, your taste buds are in for a treat.
