Workshops & crafting suggestions
Hello everyone!
I am an ambulatory wheelchair user looking for things to do in Tokyo. Do you have any suggestions for accessible workshops or crafting activities?

Onsens/private baths wheelchair
Are there any accessible onsens or private baths you can reccomend? Noticed I won’t be able to access a couple of the hotels. I have booked pool areas.

If you could share your location and travel dates, I’d be happy to recommend some suitable places for you.

Rental shower chaid
I am looking for an agence in Tokyo and Osaka to rent a shower chair in case the hotel can’t provid one. Do you have any recommendations ? Thank you in advance,

Most hotels should have a shower chair but it unfortunately isn’t guaranteed.
@tak can likely help in Osaka and maybe @ohayotravel in Tokyo can point you in the right direction
