ACCESSIBLE TOURISM: ACTIVITIES WITHIN A TOURISM DESTINATION
4 April 2023
• Adapt protocols for visitors with disabilities at museums as onefits-all rigid systems of queueing, carrying capacity instructions and security do not work well for all visitors.
• Observe ratios of reserved seats for visitors with disabilities when deciding on new carrying capacity rules at monuments, cinemas, theatres and concert venues.
• Refrain from “sealing off” accessibility features at natural settings and ensure safety for all.
• Mind potential risks at entertainment parks, sports & fitness facilities and follow the sanitary instructions for frequently manipulated equipment.
• Keep accessibility equipment at swimming pools/beaches operational and properly disinfected.
• Ensure that travel guides adapt their itineraries/routes, and consider group sizes and safety of clients with disabilities and seniors when using equipment, providing information and planning visits.
