Ambulatory wheelchair worries!
People who have been to Japan, Tokyo.
My first concern is of course the room, I’m not sure why when I booked it I didn’t realize just how small it was. 108sqft I’m stressing about fitting my wheelchair in the room for storage when not in use. I thought about maybe just using crutches for the trip but I do not feel comfortable doing that. So we…
Aloha…Do you have any suggestions for taxi companies that can transport 5 people, including one person in a manual wheelchair, in the Tokyo area? We are staying at a hotel near Tokyo Station and will be traveling to Shibuya. Please let me know. Mahalo, and have a great day!

Hi Josh- Do you have a contact for Hiroshima? We are 6 adults with 1 in a wheelchair arriving on Celebrity Millenium on 3 Apr 2026 and want to do Peace Park/Dome and Otori gate. We are usually ok to do independant travel but thinking a guide might be helpful as we only have 0900-1800 at this port and trying to understand ferry trips I may need some help.
