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.

Hi @mark
I have sent you a friend request. After you accept it I can send you a private message with the contact email for travel assistants.

There aren’t really any night markets like in other places in Asia (with food stalls, and small stores etc), but places like Hoppy Dori with outside restauants might be close: https://www.timeout.com/tokyo/restaurants/hoppy-dori
Hope this helps.
