Connect with travelers with disabilities and welcoming locals, offering tips on accessible hotels, wheelchair-friendly attractions, and transportation in Japan. From Tokyo’s bustling Shibuya Crossing and historic Asakusa to Kyoto’s golden Kinkaku-ji, Hiroshima’s Peace Memorial Park, and the hot springs of Hakone, whether it’s your first visit or a return trip, this is the place to ask about accommodations, getting around, or inclusive activities – someone here has likely experienced it before. You’ll find personal stories, travel tips, and recommendations for cultural, historical, and nature experiences. This group supports mobility aid users, along with travelers who have sensory sensitivities, low vision, and hearing loss, helping you enjoy a more accessible Japan adventure.
Reply To: Finding a hotel that will accommodate mobility scooters
I have a feeling you will be on the same cruise as us. My husband must have his scooter as well. He can walk short distances, but that is it. I am starting to get very frustrated with this trip. We did book a hotel. Getting transportation from the airport to the hotel is something else. A company responded to me with a quote. I filled out their form and have not heard back from them. I tried contacting the hotel for information on transportation to no avail. I can say that they most certainly do not cater to disabilities. This is an ongoing issue.
