In line with recent news highlighting that Japan is the top international destination Australians are travelling to this Easter, we wanted to share that InsideJapan Tour’s AU client data shows a 74% departure increase in April 2024. 

This figure clearly signifies that Japan is top of the bucket list for Easter travel this year. It was also found that 64% of our travellers are visiting places beyond the major cities of Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka during their time abroad, showing increasing desire to experience the breadth of Japan’s offerings.

 Please see the below quotes attributed to InsideJapan Tours Australia Sales Manager, Nicole Newport:

 “We are continuing to see a significant rise in demand for travel to Japan, with our data revealing a 74% increase in April departures this year, specific to our Australian branch.” Nicole said.

 “Despite various contributing factors, such as enhanced post-COVID resourcing across the travel industry, our Australian branch has tracked remarkable growth. The trajectory of departures is unmistakably upward, indicating a growing number of Aussies are planning visits to Japan during this Easter holiday period.”

 “Interestingly, we’ve discovered that 64% of our travellers this April are venturing beyond the major cities of Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka. This underscores the shifting landscape of travel in Japan as visitors seek genuine exposure to local life and culture as part of a broader cultural adventure trip, which is what we specialise in at InsideJapan Tours.” she said.
