Travel transforms us. It’s a way to connect with new cultures, create lasting memories, and experience the beauty of the world. But for wheelchair users, planning a trip often comes with its unique hurdles—from accessibility challenges to a lack of reliable information. Welcome to your gateway to wheelchair accessible travel.
At Exploring the World on Wheels, we believe everyone deserves the freedom to explore the world. That’s why we’re thrilled to launch our new website—designed by wheelchair users, for wheelchair users and their support people. This platform is crafted to make travel planning effortless, equipping you with the tools and resources to embark on adventures with confidence and ease.
Why We Created This Website
Accessible travel shouldn’t feel like an exception—it should be the norm. Unfortunately, many travelers with mobility challenges find themselves navigating a maze of limited information and unreliable resources when trying to plan trips.
You might sometimes hesitate to visit the places you’ve always dreamed of, questioning, “Is it really possible to go there in a wheelchair?” or “Can I truly experience that with limited mobility?”
Our mission is to change that. We created this website to help wheelchair users and their loved ones unlock the joys of travel without the stress of accessibility concerns. Whether you’re dreaming of exploring a bustling city, relaxing in a beautiful resort, or taking a weekend road trip, we are here to simplify the process and ensure your experiences are as smooth as they are enriching.
What You’ll Find on Our Website
Our website is packed with specialized content crafted to meet the unique needs of wheelchair travelers. Here’s what you can expect when you explore our platform:
1. Accessible Travel Guides
Dreaming of Rome? Craving a nature escape to Iceland? Wherever your heart leads, our travel guides make it possible. Each guide is created with wheelchair users in mind and features detailed recommendations on accessible attractions, accommodations, dining options, and transportation systems.
We don’t just list destinations for you to visit—we provide insider tips and firsthand experiences to ease your planning and help you make the most of your trip.
2. Accommodation Recommendations
Finding wheelchair-friendly accommodations shouldn’t be a hassle. That’s why we’ve curated a directory of hotels, resorts, and vacation rentals that prioritize accessibility.

3. Transportation Resources
Traveling from one place to another is a key part of any trip, and we’re here to make it easier. Our transportation resources include guides to accessible public transit, wheelchair-friendly taxis, and tour operators, as well as rental companies offering vehicles with hand controls. We also share detailed reviews of airlines we’ve flown with, highlighting their disability services.
Whether you’re traveling by plane, bus, train, or a mobility-adapted car, our goal is to help you navigate your journey with ease and confidence.
4. Accessibility Ratings and Reviews
We know how empowering it is to hear directly from other travelers who’ve been there. Our platform will include accessibility reviews for lodgings, restaurants, attractions, and more—shared by wheelchair users, for wheelchair users.
By learning from real experiences, you can be confident in every part of your travel itinerary.
5. Community Stories
