Handicapée désirant faire Compostelle en handbike

Hello, I’d like to take a trip for my 70th birthday this winter, but I’m looking for itineraries with a few days (1 or 2) at each stop to rest. I’ve recently had a stroke and, unfortunately, can’t travel the way I used to. So, I’m looking for itineraries that aren’t too demanding but still let me and my husband explore something new. We’ve traveled quite a bit before and would love to do one last trip (South America…). Thanks for your help!

Hi there. I’m looking for a solo trip to Greece or its islands very soon—hotels or resorts that are wheelchair-accessible, with adapted rooms and bathrooms. I’d love to soak up the Greek atmosphere and eat well. Any recommendations would be especially welcome. Lupeta.

We're heading to Agadir in early December. What outings do you recommend? Just so you know, I have trouble walking (foot paralysis).

Hi everyone,

I’m going to Amsterdam alone for 5 days. I’d like to know if, as a disabled person with a French CMI card, I can get free entry to museums (I’m planning to visit 4). If not, would you recommend the city card? I won’t be using public transport but will get around on foot or by taxi.

I’m also thinking of visiting Haarlem and the Frans Hals Museum. I’ll take the train.

Thanks for your help! This is my first time traveling alone since my difficulties 😉

My disabled friend needs a walking cane to get around. We’re taking a flight soon, and I was wondering if he needs to show a medical prescription to keep it at boarding, or if his disability card alone is enough. When I booked the tickets on Ryanair, I didn’t mention his disability ???...........Thanks for any advice!

Hello, we’re planning a three-week trip to Brazil. What sights and accommodations would you recommend, given we’re a couple with mom in a wheelchair and two older teens, and we’d like to visit: -Iguazu Falls -Rio de Janeiro (Sugarloaf Mountain, Christ the Redeemer, old town... and a beach) -Salvador de Bahia -if possible, another city further north like Recife or Natal We’ll arrive in São Paulo, where we’ll visit the young Brazilian woman we had the chance to host during her high school year in France.

It’s hard to gauge hotel accessibility from France (bathroom photos aren’t very telling and worry us...) Another concern: domestic flights in Brazil.

Thank you so much for your tips and advice! :-)

Best regards,

Trip with “assistance” – we just got back from a Brest/BKK round-trip in business class with Air France, and the assistance went really smoothly, both in PAR and BKK. But at an outrageous price: over 4,000 € per person. Next time, in November, we’re going with Thaiways, departing from PAR.

Question: if I book Brest/PAR with Air France and then BKK with Thai, will the assistance system still work between the two airlines?

Hi everyone,

We’re traveling as a family from July 2 to 16, including one adult in a wheelchair.

Do you know the must-see spots in Montréal, Quebec City, Saguenay, and the surrounding areas that are wheelchair-accessible?

We’ve had to book hotel rooms, often in chains, to ensure accessible showers (elevators, etc.).

Here’s where we’re staying: Montréal – Saint-Jérôme (since we’re coming back from Parc Omega) – Trois-Rivières – Saguenay/Chicoutimi – Tadoussac – L’Île-aux-Coudres – Quebec City, so you get an idea of our route.

Thanks in advance! Jennifer

Hi everyone,

We’re planning a family trip to Tokyo for late October 2026, and I’d love your advice on organizing this stay. Here’s some info to give you a better idea of our situation: • There’ll be two adults (one with a mild mobility impairment, which makes long walks tricky) and a child who’ll be 13 at the time. • We’d like to spend around 15 days there to explore temples, traditional Japanese culture, and, of course, the world of manga and video games.

My questions: 1. Weather in October: What’s the climate like during that period? Should we pack any specific clothing? 2. Flight bookings: When’s the best time to book? And, in your opinion, is it better to fly from Paris or Brussels? 3. Accommodation: We prefer Airbnb-style rentals or similar. Which neighborhoods do you recommend for good location without too much commuting? 4. Trip duration: Are 15 days enough for a first trip? 5. Accessibility: Any specific tips for someone who struggles with long walks (accessible transport, routes, etc.)? 6. Other recommendations: Must-visit spots in Tokyo (or nearby) for a family that loves manga, temples, and Japanese culture?

I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed starting the preparations, so any advice or personal experiences would be super helpful. Thanks in advance for your help!

Looking forward to reading your replies, Sam

My husband has a disability following a stroke. He walks with a cane and gets tired easily. Do you think we could travel to Armenia? Are Yerevan and the museums accessible for people with reduced mobility? Is the Geghard Monastery accessible? Thanks.
