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.

Thanks Bren – good to know there are accessible toilets everywhere when out and about. We managed to only get one universal room during our stay, but the other rooms have the shower next to bath or a large shower option, which hopefully will be ok. At least in hotel, we can take our time and there should be room for carers to help. It was out and about I was most worried about, but am feeling much more reassured. Thanks all.
