"At Wheel the World, we believe travel should be accessible for everyone. What began with a life-changing trek in Patagonia turned into a global movement to empower people with disabilities to explore the world — freely, safely, and confidently.
From beaches to mountains, cities to remote escapes, we verify accessibility so that no one is left behind when it comes to adventure."
