@mogens Hi Mogens-san,
From my experience, 30-40% of older buildings, 60-70% of parks/gardens and 80-90% of museums in Japan are wheelchair accessible. (If anyone knows exact data, please share it)
There you can bring your own wheelchair, walker or folding chair,
And you can also rent wheelchairs and mobility scooters.
If there are places you are interested in visiting, please share it so we can let you know if they are wheelchair accessible or not.
Japan is a larger country than people imagine, with many more places to visit,
So I live in Japan and travel four times a year with my family of wheelchair user, but
there are still many places we have not yet visited and would love to visit.
We hope you too will visit and become a fan of Japan travel!
If you need a manual/electric wheelchair or a mobility scooter for rent, please feel free to contact us via direct message on tabifolk as we can arrange it for you.
