Wheelchair: For guests whom have need for wheelchair accessability, or any medical needs, please speak with your agent for any special arrangements. Please check with your Health Insurance carrier to see if you are covered by your health policy while you are abroad. If you aren't, arrange health insurance coverage for you while you are traveling, if available.

On our Coach Tours:
Disabled Participants and those with limitations: Any disability requiring special attention should be reported to us at the time the reservation is made. We will make reasonable efforts to accommodate the special needs of disabled tour participants, but we are not responsible in the event it is unable to do so, nor are we responsible for any denial of services by carriers, hotels, restaurants or other independent suppliers.

Larger coach tours: As our coaches are not equipped with wheelchair ramps, all tour members must be able to mount 3 or 4 steps into coach. We regret that we cannot provide individual assistance to a tour member for walking, dining, getting on and off motorcoaches and other transportation vehicles, or other personal needs. Travelers who need such assistance must be accompanied by a qualified companion.

Smaller Coach Tours: What level of mobility do I need? You need to be fit enough to get on and off the vehicle on a regular basis, and to walk both to attractions and around towns and villages. You also need to be able to walk up and down stairs in the hotels and use a shower over the bath. We frequently use traditional style hotels and the majority will not have lifts or ground floor rooms. Our mini coaches are designed for smaller groups and offer limited storage space. While we strive to be as accommodating as possible, we cannot guarantee that there will be sufficient room for wheelchairs or mobility scooters. Passengers with these needs are strongly encouraged to contact us to discuss any requirements. If you have any medical issues, please declare them to us in advance of your tour. If you are in any doubt as to whether our tours are suitable for you, please check with us.

Passengers requiring wheelchairs should bring their own for added comfort, but we can also provide these if needed. Electric scooters are not allowed on our larger coach tours, but may be accepted on many of our smaller size tours.

Oxygen: Airlines do not allow you to travel with your own oxygen canisters. If requested, we can arrange oxygen on board, and at our destinations at added cost. We need to know how much oxygen you use per day and the regulator type you use.
