MemberReply to Getting to Shirakawa-go in a Wheelchair
OK, the taxi company got back to me and their charge for one hour in their taxi (mini-van) is ¥7,100 or ¥10,100 for a full sized van.
It would take between 1-1.5hrs to get to Shirakawa-go, so 2-3hrs for riding the taxi. But you would also need to pay them while you wait!!
So, very expensive! You can rent an accessible vehicle for 24hrs for about…

Sorry, just realized there isn’t much in the video. Here is the article it is from: https://www.newsminer.com/visiting-santas-house-in-north-pole-alaska-wheelchair-accessible-winter-travel/video_991d0fe0-36a7-5c6a-b3d3-731a6990a3d6.html
Thanks to @getaboutable for sharing this video! The panel discussion was particularly informative:
A great review of Neighbourhood Earth from Have Wheelchair Will Travel. Also great to learn there is a changing places toilet available! That really helps families enjoy what our universe holds.

We’ve heard a lot of great news lately in Australia so that’s a good sign that the tourism industry is moving forward on the journey! There’s still a lot to do as the video shows though…
