Travelling by train can be complicated for everybody, but, as a wheelchair user, you might find it to be a worrisome experience. There are so many things to think about when you want to book a train ticket. Is the station accessible? Is the train equipped with wheelchair spaces and adapted toilets? Does the train company offer any assistance? How do I book it?
Being in a wheelchair should not keep you from going on your dream holiday and enjoying the unique experience that is train travel. That’s why, at Euroventure, we’ve done our research and we can advise on which are the easiest wheelchair accessible train holiday routes. Whether you pick to stay in hostels or hotels, we will ensure you are booked into a wheelchair accessible room with wheelchair accessible bathrooms. You will be booked on to wheelchair accessible trains in designated seating and if necessary, we will arrange for ramps to be made available to assist in getting you on and off trains.
