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.
A café in Kyoto’s Fushimi Ward is enhancing accessible tourism by offering rentals of the Whill personal mobility device, similar to an electric wheelchair. The café features 14 wheelchair seats and encourages all patrons to experience using them.
KYOTO—A cafe owner who promotes universally accessible tourism is now providing a rental service for Whill, a personal mobility system similar to an electric wheelchair, following requests from foreign visitors.
