How this is calculated
A US baseline of 90, 210 and 450 USD a day for the three tiers is multiplied by the price level of Japan (0.6486796390727583, World Bank 2025) and by a city-size factor of 1.1, then rounded to the nearest 5 dollars. Local amounts use the World Bank exchange rate of 149.657926890952 JPY to the dollar, rounded to two significant digits.
These are modeled estimates, not quoted prices. Read the full formula on the methodology page.

Where the money goes
The daily tiers reflect where the money actually goes: at the $65 budget level, most of the spending covers a simple room, casual meals, and public transit, while the $150 mid-range day adds a sit-down restaurant meal, a paid attraction, and more comfortable lodging. At the $320 luxury level, the extra spending goes toward higher-end lodging and less restriction on dining and activity choices, with the same basic costs of transit and coffee still applying underneath.
February, March, and August are the cheapest and quietest months, which is when the daily and weekly totals are most likely to land at the lower end of each tier rather than the higher end. All figures here are estimates built from the published daily and weekly cost tiers rather than fixed prices, so actual spending will vary with personal choices in lodging and dining.
Cheapest months by climate demand: Feb, Mar and Aug.
