Is this the right tour for you?
Why choose it
This is a relevant option when an accessible museum route is the main requirement. A private guide and the ability for family members to accompany the wheelchair user keep the visit together.
What to weigh up
The booking is non-refundable, and the listed meeting point refers to the top of stairs. Confirm a step-free meeting arrangement and any equipment needs with the operator before relying on the advertised accessibility.
