The company’s new product range offers specially designed and exclusive tours tailored for elderly and disabled travellers.
The development of these products and experiences will help those with disabilities "overcome barriers to travel", and forms part of Tripseed’s mission to "grow travel back better" and make the industry a more equitable, diverse and inclusive environment.
"We are committed to growing travel in a direction that is open and welcoming for everyone," Tripseed founder, Ewan Cluckie said. "Tripseed has always been about breaking down barriers and creating new opportunities."
Accessibility audits have been conducted across properties, tour locations and transportation in Thailand to evaluate ramp inclinations, availability of grab bars, manoeuvrability clearance and other aspects, to advise agents and partners on the most suitable travel options based on the level of assistance required.
Tripseed is also offering specialised guides who are trained in American Sign Language (ASL), British Sign Language (BSL) and Thai Sign Language (TSL & MSTSL), as well as guides trained to assist with any other audio-visual impairments.
In addition to Tripseed’s accessibility auditing of existing travel products, the company has also announced a new selection of experiences designed to deliver uncompromising accessible variations of the brand’s best-selling tours.
This includes a day-time city tour of Bangkok, an evening street food experience in a fully electric Tuk-Tuk, specially outfitted with a built-in wheelchair ramp and unique wheelchair restraint system, a snorkelling or diving experience and a private tour through 200 acres of botanical gardens in a vehicle fully equipped for accessibility.
