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: Japan Renting Wheelchair
Hi Linda, Thank you for responding, as this was a big help! I dont mind using a manual wheelchair but I just can’t seem to find anywhere online where to rent a wheelchair while in japan. I will be in Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto but I will return and enter Japan through tokyo at the start of my trip. If you dont know where to get normal wheelchairs that is okay, thank you for the help!
