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

But for Japan it's not really necessary. Travelling by train is faster and easier. Shinkansen (high speed trains) are reliable and go between major and minor cities. Buying a rail pass before you travel is cheaper than buying in Japan.

Also, you should check your visa requirements. If you are a US citizen and are only travelling for a holiday, you are exempt and don't need a visa. You should check the validity of your passport. There may be a minimum requirement of time remaining. However, if you've never travelled, you may need to get one.
