I'm 29, never left the country. My bucket list is visiting Japan at the very top. I have no idea what you do or if you have to go through travel agencies, how much money you should bring etc

Travel within Japan is very expensive. Very convenient but very expensive. Decide where you want to go and then look into a train pass for the area(s). You'll mostly be wanting to take the shinkansen if you're not staying in one small area--Japan is pretty spread out and travel otherwise takes a while.

Food, on the other hand, is mostly very affordable.
