I made you a friend so send away.

Since it seems that no Japan tour agency arranges International flights I have to arrange flights myself so arranging hotels would be one more step so I might look into a string of day tours also. A regular travel agency might be helpful here at this point but in the US  most only have an online presence now except maybe in some major cities.

I can think of some ways I could solve this but I am not independently wealthy. So I will have to see if I can find a way that is affordable. Since I am a bachelor I live pretty comfortably here and can afford to travel myself. A vacation/travel loan is even an option if I can figure out all the costs including travel insurance and travelers checks/cash needed for contingencies since I have seen many places in Japan do not take credit card like here in the US.
