Travelers with disabilities to find tailor-made guides on GuideGecko?

Thanks to Monica Guy, the European Network for Accessible Tourism (ENAT) and the Rolling Rains Report write about GuideGecko. Both are well-known authorities for accessible tourism, and the articles discuss the possibility to publish guides for travelers with disabilities on GuideGecko.

Travelers with disabilities often have a hard time with regular guidebooks, as off-the-shelf guides typically do not mention things like step-free side entrances or other necessities required by such travelers. And what’s the point in visiting a marvelous sight, if you can’t find your way in?

Travel guides tailor-made for this target audience are usually hard to find, because they typically don’t sell as well as – say – a Lonely Planet. To quote the ENAT: “GuideGecko (…) provides the perfect online platform for self-published accessible travel guides by independent authors,” and “GuideGecko even helps budding authors to structure their Guide by providing document templates – what could be easier?”

Thanks for the compliments, and we are looking forward to the first access guides on GuideGecko!
