Walker and Wheelchair??
Hi! I am going to Japan in late October. Fly to Tokyo then get on a cruise that stops at quite a few different places.
My worry is that I am struggling with my walker and know I will probably need a wheelchair soon. Will know more in 2 months when I see my neurosurgeon. I just had another knee replacement too.
If I took my walker with me then…

Public transportation in Tokyo and Kyoto
I am a wheelchair user and will visit Japan for the first time in April (so it’ll be busy season). How accessible are buses and subways in Tokyo and Kyoto; how easy is it to get around using public transportation instead of using taxis? Are there apps I should download and use for both public transportation and for taxis?

Good to hear visiting Japan.
About transportation by train, Accessible Japan site mentioned.
So pls check it.
Many travelers who use wheelchair visit Japan.
Normally they use electric wheelchair.
They use google maps for select transportation methods.
They said sometime difficult to find elevator, so they need to walk for finding.
Some normal Taxi…
