hhhhmmm 5 day trip, the ticket around $650-$800 for the ticket. The hotel $100+ a night and food $50 a day if that. Also, depends on who you go with what they charge. I would say less than $1700 for the trip. But for the koi what ever you want to spend.

Don't you have to be a momotaro dealer to buy their fish?

Off topic here, but is it possible for an individual to go to Japan, buy a box of koi directly from a breeder and bring them home as excess baggage, with only the help of a travel agent?
