Transportation and tour guides
I have reached out to the tour operators that are listed on the Accessible Japan website and I haven’t been able to get much response. I’m looking for transportation. I am currently in the process of getting one quote that I started last night and waiting on hearing a back about that, but I also would like to know if anyone has any experience…

Hi Bre
Can I ask when you sent your requests to the operators? Did you use the form or go to their websites directly? We (I run Accessible Japan and tabifolk) had a server issue a few weeks ago and emails didn’t get sent. This may have been when you sent your request…

Are you attempting Pompeii? We did Herculaneum instead. I was doable in a power chair. The viewing platforms and accessibility was excellent. Good luck…..otherwise just eat Pizza!!!

Invisible Disability
Hello Everyone.
I recently came across Accessible Japan Blog and found it very helpful. I wanted to ask if you happen to know whether a Philippine PWD ID is recognized or accepted in Japan.
I have a psychosocial disability and was wondering if presenting my Philippine PWD ID and/or a medical certificate would be sufficient when accessing…

Regarding transport, I would think most of them would not accept foreign issued disability certificates. But you always can ask and they may allow you to purchase disability discount.
Other than that each venue management has its own rule for disability discount. So you should ask every time to check whether or not they accept your Philippine PWD ID.1 -
I’ve been to Manila, Philippines before!

I can also help check and confirm the requirements for you.
