If you fly JAL JAL is one of the best airlines to fly to Japan, and its miles can help you travel all over the world due to its partnerships. JAL’s first and business class cabins are among the best in the world, too.

You can expect to pay about $320 per day for an all-inclusive trip to Japan, so the average price for an 14-day trip would be $4500 with flights included.

It’s a good idea to take Japan’s national holidays into account, too. Shogatsu (Japanese New Year), Obon (in mid-August or mid-July, depending on the area), and the Golden Week (between April 29 and May 5) are busy times for residents….Japan Climate Guide.

The best time to visit Japan in 2021 for the weather is March to May and October to November. The spring and autumn months are ideal as you will get the best weather available throughout the country.

Busy Seasons — Japanese have a passion for travel, and they generally travel at the same time, resulting in jampacked trains and hotels. The worst times to travel are around New Year’s, from the end of December to January 4; Golden Week, from April 29 to May 5; and during the Obon Festival, about a week in mid-August.

On a bare-bones budget, a trip to Japan will cost you $65-75 USD per day if you stick to Couchsurfing, cheap food, bus travel (trains would be far too expensive), and only free attractions.

Based on my experience, 200,000 yen each for 2 weeks will certainly be enough if you’re not into expensive restaurants. You will be able to eat at decent places, buy snacks and souvenirs, and pay admission fees for temples, shrines, museums etc within that budget quite comfortably.

Traveling frugally is always a goal of mine, but now more than ever we needed to save as much money as possible on this trip. When all was said and done, we spent 10 days in Tokyo, Kyoto and Hiroshima, and only spent about $4,000 for the both of us, including flights and accommodation.

For example, if you spend a week in Tokyo can easily cost 1,500-2,000 USD per person, or more if you stay in fancy hotels and eat Michelin-starred dinners. On the other hand, you might be able to pull off a week in Kyushu or Shikoku for under 1,000 USD per person.
