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

I know a lot of people are saying don't rent a car, but if you like to drive, the roads in Japan are great, the rules are followed, it's very relaxing place to drive. And a great way to see the countryside.

So I 100% recommend you get a car and drive around if you like driving around and exploring things. Just avoid the big cities. Any of the second or third tier cities should be fine to drive out of, and the countryside you absolutely need a car.
