cherche lève personne TOKYO
Bonjour. Déjà merci Stéphane DEFREYNE pour les infos sur facebook, qui nous ont conduits ici

Bonjour et bienvenue 🙂 @ohayotravel peut organiser des voyages complets, mais peut aussi servir d’intermédiaire uniquement pour la location de matériel. Le fonctionnement est un peu différent au Japon, et il est préférable de bénéficier des conseils et de l’expertise d’un professionnel, je ne suis pas sûr que les…

Air Pump
My wheelchair tires take 120 psi. Can I get them ‘topped up’ in Japan easily or should I bring my pump ? Gas stations, etc. in Canada only go to 100 psi.

I’m not sure what my tires take (I use an Invacare power wheelchair), and Japan uses kPA instead of PSI, but I have filled up my tires at bicycle shops many times here. They are very kind and do it for free. There are also tonnes of them, so you shouldn’t need to search very hard.
Many shops like Donki have cheap pumps for sale as well if in…

I use a manual wheelchair and plan to take my USB chargeable tyre pump, its called a ‘Fumpa Pumpa’ mini. My tyres are around 110 psi.
Although, the fumpa is a usb battery re-chargeable and not a manual pump so I’ll probably need to check it can be packed into luggage. Its only about half the size of an iPhone so easy packing.

You shouldn’t have a problem with boarding the train. Some of the rural trains have a step up inside the train but the urban ones have an almost flat floor level with the platform. If you make yourself known to the station staff in Hakodate (get there at least 20 minutes before the train departs they will get you on board and also tell the…

I have taken a few rural trains like in Aomori and it should be fine, especially as Shin-Hakodate to Hakodate would be common for anyone going to Hakone from Tokyo by train.
They will still be a ramp, just a longer one. I’ve use a 2m one before.

It is exciting that they can go to Japan. The flight is long. You may want to download his favorite movies or music in case the entertainment system on the flight isn’t working. If he hasn’t taken a long trip on an airplane you may want to talk about what flying is like.
Remember his sensory strategies if needed (noise reducing head… Read more
