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.

Your suggestion to contact E-mail info@iwatetabi.jp was very helpful and I’ve already heard back from them as follows:
I would say it would be easier to transfer via taxi from the cruise ship terminal to Desaki Pier or Jodogahama Beach, it wouldn’t take long by taxi.
You could email or call the taxi company in Miyako city below (Advance reservation required / English service available) :
-Kubota Taxi
TEL +81-193-67-2121
You can borrow a wheelchair if you need, so please ask them.
As for your information, there is an English information center around the cruise ship terminal, so please ask them if you need help.
For any other questions about tour in Iwate, feel free to ask us.
