Hi there, I am a blind individual who is hoping to visit Japan this fall. I am curious if Japan treats sighted guides like Canada does.

Hi! Great to hear you are planning on visiting Japan.

Hello! I’m a wheelchair traveler going Tokyo for the first time.
Would you know of any Gyukatsu Motomura branches that do not require the use of staircases to be seated and eat? Thanks!
