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.

Thanks for the reply!
You did help. Too often, the disability and LGBTQIA+ communities forget that people can be a part of both communities. For some, like myself, we’ve been LGBTQIA+ as long as we’ve been disabled.
Japan is on my ‘bucket list’ of places to visit. Currently, my goal is to visit in 2025 for the Osaka World Expo. (If I do go, it will be my 2nd time to one, with the first being in the 80s in Knoxville, TN.) I hope I can save up by then.
