Group Description
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: Limited walking but don’t need a wheelchair yet…
Sorry for the late reply, but I think you already have some good information here. Agreeing with what others say, plan, plan, and then plan some more.
While there aren’t many public benches to rest, one thing you might also consider is plenty of refreshment breaks (coffee shops with seating, meals, etc). It’s a little more expensive, but also part of the experience.
