    Hi everyone!

    Would be happy to answer questions related to accessible travel in India. Accessible Tourism is now coming in conversations and a few private players are investing time and resources in ensuring accessibility for persons with disabilities vis-a-vis tourism.

    Best wishes,

    Parul

    Dear Accessible users,

    I feel awesome to see that all of you were seriously discussing the accessibility of the disabled people to enable them and to inspire their wanderlust.

    I also think a lot about it and find that the wheelchair users also need some help and tips at airports to make their journey hassle free.

    I crafted a blog by researching how to make them easily accessible at the airports.

    Please do read this and convey your opinions.

    Kerala is one of the most beautiful places worth visiting in India.
    In Kerala Package you can explore Land of Ayurveda Backwaters, unique culinary experiences, Festivals like Thrissur Pooram and Backwater Boat Races and Descent Hill Stations.
