Access Northern California

One very well done site on destination access! Includes a very helpful database of Northern California sites that is regularly updated.

Access to Northern Australia - Wheelie Easy

Want to try tropical Northern Australia? Wheelie Easy specializes in accessible tours and destination information.

Access to Theatres in London

Can you get in or will it be another rerun of "Shakespeare in the Park(ing Lot)?" Check their database to be sure.

Accessibility in London

A comprehensive site. Lots of information on intra-city transport on this particular page. Very helpful for getting an overview of your options.

Accessible Adventure Tours

Rudy Maxa, that "Savvy Traveler", teams up with Adam Lloyd, our "Gimp on the Go", to give you a teaser on the sorts of travel you can see reviewed at Suite 101's "Traveling with Disabilities."

Accessible Events - San Francisco Bay

A portal for wheelchair accessible sports, arts, and entertainment events in Northern California. I personally know the crew behind this initiative. They are dynamic innovators!

Accessible Italy: Tour Service for Persons with Disabilities

Specialists with experience making Italy accessible to tourists using wheelchairs. Includes a section for Travel Agents as well.

Accessible San Diego

Access information about a city that's aiming to be "the world's most accessible city." They are also hoping to organize a conference on Accessible Tourism in late 2006 or early 2007.

Accessible Santa Cruz, California

I love Santa Cruz. I can always count on finding parking in this charming little beachfront town and its neigbbors Soquel and Aptos. Why? Probably because the parking cops are wheelchair users themselves! (Spanish version of the site available also.)

Accessible Travel in Northern Thailand

Whoa, like don't let your elephant step on your wheelchair over there! Ride an elephant, visit exotic sites, eat some great food, and stay in wheelchair accessible accommodations. Sounds like heaven.

AParalyzed.com: Accessible Destination Reviews

From the web site: "Let us give you a few idea's on accessible holidays and destinations for disabled people and their friends and family. Some of our disabled wheelchair readers have been to some wonderfull places, places most disabled people think they could never see. But all it takes is a little extra planning, and a little courage to overcome the uncertainty of exploring a new culture, and you too could be experiencing a whole new world."
