I’ve been scouting the Internet for information regarding accessible travel in Central America as I’m planning a trip in September for two and a half months to Nicaragua. I’ve known Gordon Rattray in Belgium for some time now as I stumbled across his website about safaris for disabled people.
Gordon is a C4/C5 tetraplegic that loves to go on safari and has provided information about his previous trips to various places (not just on safari) including Tanzania, Botswana, Chicago, Ethiopia, Australia, Kenya and Malawi. According to his site he should currently be in Kenya and Tanzania for 3 months.
He gives a host of travel tips and I found his “World Guide” particularly useful as there is information about Costa Rica which is one of the countries I will be hopefully visiting. Gordon’s site “Accessible Adventure Travel” may be found at www.able-travel.com
I’ll be keeping you posted on my progress through the blog, writing about the planning, vaccinations, visa requirements and all the other adventures as time progresses. My flight dates are set for the 25th September so time is counting down and I’m getting very excited!
