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.

Hi Scott,
Sure, feel free to share my comments, and if they are interested, I’m always interested in new ideas!
To be clear, there are many people in the world who cannot travel due to medical conditions or disability, and they have just as much a right to explore the world as well. So, I am excited to see any way that can make that happen. I just want to make sure that happens alongside adaptations in the physical environment.
