Group Description
Meet and learn from travelers with disabilities and welcoming locals, offering tips on accessible hotels, wheelchair-friendly attractions, and transportation in the United States. From the Statue of Liberty in New York City and the Grand Canyon in Arizona to the monuments of Washington, D.C., the beaches of Florida, and the national parks of California, whether it’s your first visit or a return trip, this is the place to ask about accommodations, getting around, or inclusive activities – someone here has likely experienced it before. You’ll find first-hand reviews, travel tips, and recommendations for cultural, historical, and nature experiences. This group welcomes mobility aid users, plus travelers with autism, low vision, and hearing impairments, helping you enjoy a more accessible United States adventure.
