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.

Dear Loredana-san,
Thank you so much for your really warm message!
I will certainly never forget riding with you in your off-road wheelchair along the Giant cedar path in Togakushi-Nagano. — The air was so clear and crisp on the snow-covered road.
We are delighted to have been able to assist you on your wonderful journey!
Looking forward to seeing you again on your next trip!
Warmest wishes,
Tomo, Mikie and all staff (Wheelchair Travel Japan)
