Reply To: Onsite wheelchair rental for main sights in Kyoto
Hello,
Kyoto can be very flat in the middle and very hilly around the outside! Once you get up to Kiyomizudera you can access most of the areas – but getting up the hill is quite a challenge!
I can look up the wheelchair availability for you, but, it might be best to rent a wheelchair for the entirety of your trip. Even if there is an on-site wheelchair, you may end up waiting if it is in user already when you arrive. If you come-in and leave from Tokyo, you could likely even rent a powered wheelchair to deal with the hills!
Might be worth considering. 🙂
