Falling prices and a weaker yen have resulted in a 20% increase in the number of UK visitors to Japan, according to the Worldwide Holiday Costs Barometer 2015, The Telegraph reported on 15 January.
Japan was placed 17th in the Post Office survey, which monitors the price of eight items commonly purchased by tourists, including dinner for two, drinks and sun-cream, in 46 destinations globally.
Andrew Brown of Post Office Travel Money said: “For those travelling further afield, Cape Town, Bali and Tokyo look good bets for the bargain-hunter”.
