Reply To: Short Accessible Cruise in Japan
Hi,
Japan domestic cruises are getting back from suspension caused by COVID-19. Unfortunately, no cruising plans are available from Tokyo/Yokohama to Okinawa. as I can check the plan list of ASUKA II ( no English pages are available)
However, several plans leaving from Yokohama offer 3-4 days cruises, both returning to same port and one way to other port where you need to come back to Tokyo by air or Shinkansen.
The website tells that accessible rooms are available, but some restriction may apply to one on a powered wheelchair. In any cases. contacting to the operator in advance is required.
Additionally, Yusen Travel offers several cruising tour with several vessels including ASUKA II. but no English pages are available, sorry to say.
