Tokyo Budget FAQ

Is this budget accurate?

It's a reference estimate based on typical category prices by travel style. Actual costs vary with season, exchange rate, and personal habits. Use it as a starting point and edit any line.

How is the budget calculated?

We multiply per-night accommodation by (days - 1), per-day categories by total days, and flight by travelers. A buffer percentage is added as a separate category.

Are flights included?

Yes — a preset round-trip flight per person is included. You can edit the amount to match your actual booking.

Is my data stored when I share?

How much does a Tokyo trip cost?

A 5-day standard-style Tokyo trip for 2 runs about ¥445,500 total (¥222,750 per person). Staying in business hotels near major stations saves 20-30%.

Do I need a JR Pass for Tokyo?

For Tokyo-only travel, a Suica/PASMO IC card is usually more cost-effective than a national JR Pass. The JR Pass pays off if you take long-distance shinkansen trips.

Is cash or card better in Tokyo?

Both work, but cash is still preferred at small restaurants and shrines. Withdraw yen from ATMs at 7-Eleven or FamilyMart for the best rates.

What's the biggest expense in Tokyo?

Flights are typically the largest single cost (about ¥180,000 for two travelers), followed by accommodation (¥60,000 for 4 nights) and food (¥37,500). Staying in business hotels near major stations offers the best value.
