Due to the strength of the pound and price falls in Tokyo of 21.5% this calendar year, costs for UK visitors are now 50% less than in 2013, The Mirror reported on 26 September.
The Worldwide Holiday Costs Barometer 2015, produced by Post Office Travel Money, surveyed the cost of 10 tourist staples—including an evening meal for two with a bottle of wine, soft and alcoholic drinks, water and sunscreen—in 33 long-haul destinations.
The report found that, in Tokyo, food and drink prices, in particular, are now reportedly much more reasonable than in 2013.
