Fukuoka travels
I am a PWDs and planning a trip with my sister to Fukuoka. We would like to know whether there is any chartered driver that we can look for to drive us to and fro airport and also maybe a day trip.

Travelling around Hokkaido
Any recommendation for wheelchair accessible transport for airport to hotel pickup, point to point or day trips?
View more commentsWhile we travelled in Hokkaido, we were able to take regular taxis from the airport – my wheel chair is foldable.
We have hired @ohayotravel for other parts of Japan so I am tagging them here in case they can assist.
Good luck and happy travels!1- View 3 replies
I’m sure there are many accessible taxis available in Hokkaido, but I’m not sure of any specific period. However I know that two of the companies listed here, TokudAw and Welhire, can help arrange taxis in that area as well so you might want to try giving them an… Read more

Leaving a scooter outside a restaurant or shop in Japan.
Hi Everyone,
my name is Oliver and I have cerebral palsy.
So I’m going to Japan in late November to early December for about two weeks and am super excited. I will most likely bring a scooter called DashMoto 3. I can walk, but I can’t do it for long periods of time and I will be going with a group of friends as well.
My main concern is if I go to…
View more commentsGood question. Following as I’d like to know if it is okay to secure the scooter with a bike lock at front too. I suspect it will depend on space in front of the restaurant etc. keen to know what others have experienced
1Would love to know as well. I posted a similar question in a FB group since I’m an ambulatory wheelchair user. Folks said it is ok and safe to leave it outside (I think the challenge would be if the sidewalk is narrow)

Electric Bed Hotel
Hi,
I’m trying to find a hotel in Tokyo with a non-smoking universal twin room with an electric bed. We have found a few but they’re either financially prohibitive, or not available for our stay in September.
Apart from trawling lots of individual websites, does anyone have recommendations so that I can narrow down my search.
Thanks
View more commentsI have also been planning a trip for September. I have already done a ton of searching but so far I have a few good options for Tokyo. IDK your budget but I hope this helps narrow your search.
