We are coming to Japan in September and will be staying in five different locations. This means moving a scooter and a wheelchair will probably be too hard.

Anybody know if this is suitable…

It is designed for both indoor and outdoors and you see them frequently. No problems in restaurants (more than any other wheelchair anyway).
You may be able to rent an extra batter as well. Then less to worry about when going long distances.

Hello.
I run a taxi company in Osaka for people with disabilities. I also use Whill. I think the F model is a great, compact, and good model, but compared to the C2 model, it is significantly less capable of overcoming bumps and running on gravel roads.

Travel agents and travel advisors typically do not charge, because they get commission from the vendor. Sometimes, however, a person wants the advisor’s expertise for a trip with few, if any, commissions. Then a planning fee can be charged.
