A limited number of accessible wheelchair taxis with wheelchair ramps are available in Hong Kong. For travelers with folding wheelchairs who can transfer into/out of a regular taxi, nearly all Hong Kong taxi cabs will be an option. For those with power wheelchairs and/or those who need to travel while seated in their own wheelchair, a wheelchair taxi will be necessary.
Reserving an accessible taxi in advance is critical, and it is recommended to do this at least 24 hours before your trip. It will be best to have your hotel concierge or travel agent arrange these bookings, as the language barrier can be an issue at times. The contact information for the accessible taxi company in Hong Kong is provided below:
