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.

Reply To: Safe to Travel around Tokyo and Osaka Alone in A Power Wheelchair?
I was there in June using my power wheelchair and found the people in Japan to be very respectful of disabled people. Giving you first priority at venues.
I went to Disneyland Tokyo and I had a great time there. I went on some rides and the staff went above what they had to do to help me.
One thing to note is that some cafes and bars are so tiny or have stairs.
I highly recommend Japan as a safe place to visit for anyone.
Happy Holidays 😊
