Accessible Tourism

‘Accessible Tourism’, ‘Inclusive Tourism’, ‘Barrier-free Travel’, whatever you like to call it, it’s growing by 22% per year*.

Accessible Tourism enables equality, dignity and independence in tourism experiences. Accomodation, transport, tours, dining, retail, resorts, conferences, all should be accessible and inclusive.

Across the world, tourism bodies are increasingly recognising the growing need and as social requirement. To us, it’s ensuring destinations are open and welcoming to everyone.
