F/21 First time Traveling to Japan, mandatory itinerary check

Hello everyone, long-time lurker, finally making the big step to travel to Japan! This is my first-time going, and by myself at that. I decided to go through a 2 week group tour, then spend the week after by myself. I’ll be staying from 7/16-8/5, so I'm hoping to come across any local festivals. I've been planning and budgeting my trip for a couple of months now, and I think about $3000 would be sufficient for souvenirs, restaurant, and emergency money.

Without further ado, here's the trip:
