How to choose where to travel this year?

After being unable to travel for so long, many of us have a pent up desire to explore and discover again.

With many businesses reducing their offerings due to the pandemic, or even closing, it is hard to know what is available in 2022 and 2023.

When you have a physical challenge the options seem further reduced.

Thankfully, over the last couple of years, many businesses in tourism have made changes which result in greater access for all

The number of accommodation venues offering accessible rooms has increased significantly. There are now more experiences , tours and transport catering to wheelchair users.
