All of the holidays we feature are vetted to ensure they meet our very high standards. This include accessible transportation, relaxed itineraries disabled friendly accommodation and more.

Note Down Your Equipment

Disabled Travel Tip: 1

A disabled traveller may use a wide range of equipment when at home. These range from simple bathroom adaptions such as handrails to more substantial pieces such as electric wheelchairs. No matter how trivial you think a piece of equipment may be, its worth noting it down. From there you can let us know what you use on a day to day basis and we can make sure you have access to all the equipment you need when you’re on holiday.

Be Honest

Disabled Travel Tip: 2

There’s no need to hold back when talking to a disabled holiday provider like Limitless Travel. Experienced travel advisors will ensure your holiday is perfect for you. Be honest about what you think the perfect holiday is. It’s also best to let a travel advisor know all the details about your requirements. This is so once you are on holiday you can have all the necessary care that you may need.

Talk to Your Doctor

Disabled Travel Tip: 3

If you have any medical questions it might be worth having a quick conversation with your doctor. This could be especially important if you're thinking about flying or visiting a hot destination. From medical advice to ensuring you’ve got enough medication, its worth visiting your doctor.

Dosset Boxes & Blister Packs

Disabled Travel Tip: 4

It’s very important to bring any medication you may take on holiday in blister packs or dosset boxes. This is especially important if you need help when taking your medication. Carers typically cant aid you when taking medication if they are loose.

Bring Contact Details

Disabled Travel Tip: 5

You never know when you might need to call someone from home. From family members to your previously mentioned doctor, note down who you may need to call. You can note these details down on a notebook or in your mobile phone. Who knows, you may want to ring home just to gloat about your amazing holiday.

Be Willing

Disabled Travel Tip: 6

We hear time and time again from our Limitless Travellers that one barrier that stopped them from traveling before was themselves. This is no surprise and completely understandable, making that decision to go on holiday can be quite a commitment.
