Group Description
Connect with travelers with disabilities and welcoming locals, offering tips on accessible hotels, wheelchair-friendly attractions, and transportation in Japan. From Tokyo’s bustling Shibuya Crossing and historic Asakusa to Kyoto’s golden Kinkaku-ji, Hiroshima’s Peace Memorial Park, and the hot springs of Hakone, whether it’s your first visit or a return trip, this is the place to ask about accommodations, getting around, or inclusive activities – someone here has likely experienced it before. You’ll find personal stories, travel tips, and recommendations for cultural, historical, and nature experiences. This group supports mobility aid users, along with travelers who have sensory sensitivities, low vision, and hearing loss, helping you enjoy a more accessible Japan adventure.
Discover the vibrant city of Tokyo with Cory Lee’s guide to wheelchair-accessible attractions! From accessible transportation to inclusive must-see spots, this guide is packed with helpful insights. (even a shout-out to tabifolk in it!)
This is excellent – my soulmate and I want to go to Japan, both of us would need wheelchairs, but she was of the opinion that Tokyo wasn’t good for a wheelchair user.
I would like to travel with my elderly Mom to Japan. She can stand and walk for very short distances but can not stand for longer than 5 minutes without her cane. And can not walk more than 1 city block. We can travel without her electric wheelchair through the airports but once we arrive to Japan are their daily wheelchair rentals available?
