  • Travelling around Hokkaido

    Any recommendation for wheelchair accessible transport for airport to hotel pickup, point to point or day trips?

    • While 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!

    • 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

    • Assistance with Contacting a Concert Organizer

      Hello everyone,

      I am a disabled traveler from Taiwan. I have severe congenital Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI), which means I have a very short stature, and I rely primarily on a power wheelchair to get around. I am planning a trip to Tokyo, arriving on June 1st, and I have two questions I am hoping to get some help with.

      • Yes, the general method is to buy tickets and then call the concert producers. (And they often have very specific hours.) It is done verbally with whoever is one the line, so most likely only Japanese…

        Depending on the concert, they may ask for everyone’s names but will at least ask for 1 name. Once the seats are assigned you would call again…

    • 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…

      • Good 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

        Love

        • Would 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
