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.

Hi,
Always glad to help! Yes, the site is pretty accurate I believe. As for booking longer trains, since accessible seating is limited, I do suggest booking in advance for Shinkansen and special express trains that have reserved seating. It is a pain, but the booking process can take longer than you might expect, so best to get it out of the way.
Thanks for your love of the sites! It would be great if you could let others know about it as well as join groups for places you know. I really want to get other groups off the ground here.
