For those who don’t know, the ART shuttle is an accessible bus that goes between the Disneyland Resort (Disneyland/DCA) and the surrounding hotels. It is a great way to get between the two locations. They also provided a bus between John Wayne/Orange County Airport and those…

Help with Wheelchair use and needs in Japan
Hello, I am traveling to Japan in March. I am a very limited walker who wears braces. I know at Disneyland I can rent an electric scooter. I am assuming in Disney see I can also rent one. Does anyone know if I need to reserve it ahead of time. I’m also wondering at other places like temples, can I get a wheelchair there just for that…

Hoist delivery and wheelchair accessible taxi
Hi everyone,
I’m planning my second trip to Japan from Australia. I’m a full-time wheelchair user, can’t walk, using hoist to tranfer. The first time we went to Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka and got the hoist delivered to the hotel we stayed in each city with no issue – for some reasons I have been unable to contact that company which delivered the…

Hello, and thank you for your post.
We can help arrange hoist (patient lift) delivery/setup and wheelchair-accessible taxi/transfer services in Japan.
To be completely honest, the Mt. Fuji area is a bit far from hoist service base, so we may not be able to provide a hoist immediately there, and the delivery/setup cost can be quite high due to…

Car or Train
Hi, I’ve just joined this group. I hope to travel to Japan with my husband and two other adults in first two weeks of April which I know is a busy time. My husband uses a foldable scooter (that we currently fit in the boot of a car). We hope to visit Tokyo, Hacone, Nagoya, Kyoto, Osaka, Hiroshima, and then back to Tokyo. What are your thoughts…

I should add that my husband can walk but not long distances. I can fold the scooter and wheel it around

We (3 adults, 1 in foldable wheelchair) navigated just fine via train & sometimes taxi in Tokyo, Kyoto and Matsumoto (smaller city than the ones you mention), the big cities are especially easy with dedicated zones where it’s easy to roll on/off trains. All normal taxis were able to load our folded wheelchair (usually with bungee in the…

Scenic Train rides in Japan.
Hi everyone, I’m planning to be in Japan for 10-14 days later this year. I would like to go on as many scenic train rides as possible while I’m there. I have looked up a few online like the Sagano Romantic train ride but that one is open air which might be really cold at the end of December. Are the Shinkansen moving so fast you can’t see the…
-
The Shinkansen is designed to go from A to B as fast as possible. This means plenty of tunnels and noise barriers, all of which block the view. December and January is not the best time for scenic trains except in mountain areas. There’s information on the Internet listing the most scenic trains (search for Joyful Train on JR East website) but…

Thank you, this is what I’m looking for. I know it’s not the best season to visit Japan but it is when we are having our anniversary. Beautiful mountains covered in snow will be a wonderful welcome sight. I live in the swamp in Louisiana so I want to see mountains even if you think they all look the same. But yes please recommend any train…
