How do we proceed?

Accessible hotel rooms sell out far in advance so our first priority for our Florence handicapped accessible travel agents will be to make the hotel reservation.  The earlier you contact us, the more hotel options you will have to choose from. We recommend contacting us 2 to 4 months in advance of your trip.

Because checking the availability of the disabled hotel rooms requires contacting each hotel individually, we require a $150 USD deposit before we begin. If you choose not to accept any of our recommended hotels or you cancel your trip for any reason, you get to keep our Florence Accessibility Guide at no additional charge.

When you contact us, please provide the following information:
1) The number of disabled travelers
2) The number of able-bodied travelers
3) The nature of the disability (manual wheelchair user, electric wheelchair user, mobility scooter user, walk with a cane, etc…)
4) The dates of travel
