Extra Travel Tips

  • Mix Cash & Card – Japan is card-friendly in cities, but rural shops, markets, and temples may prefer cash—especially coins for small purchases.
  • Use JPY in Japan, not AUD – Paying in local currency ensures better rates and avoids unnecessary conversion fees.
  • Watch ATM Fees – Some foreign cards incur withdrawal charges. Use post office or 7-Eleven ATMs for reliable access and better transparency.
  • Leftover Yen After Your Trip? Danesh Exchange offers a buy-back service for unused Japanese Yen—simple, secure, and great value.
