Bus route search by DAISY
※Japanese-only service
Reading system (voice guide) for people, such as visual disabilities.
Made with DAISY Standard, Daisy Talking Books. Play them with corresponding equipment, then you can smoothly access to information such as headings, contents, and chapters.
At Tourist Information Center for People with Disabilities and Seniors, we have received many requests from people with visual disabilities that they want to travel Okinawa by a bus.
So this time, we have comprised various bus access information with DAISY Standard to various Okinawa tourism spots, such as Shuri Castle, Gyokusendo, Churaumi Aquarium, Okinawa main island, Miyako Island, and Ishigaki Island, so that people with disabilities can freely travel wherever they want to go.
If you ride on a bus in Okinawa, you may have fun travel, that you cannot experience by a taxi and a rental car, such as enjoying talking with the driver and local seniors.
