Hi Mia,
I think that with the change in the new Japan entry regulations that take effect on the 7th September it should be possible, as now travel reservations still need to be done via a travel agency, but group and supervised tours are not mandatory anymore.
I don’t know if @ohayotravel can help you with it. Otherwise, maybe @joshgrisdale can point you to other tour operators in Japan.
I hope that you can make it! If you do, don’t hesitate to ask for accessible travel suggestions.
