    How strenuous is this tour can l do it with a walker

    Tour Details
    • Intrepid PremiumOperator•Written May 2026

      In order to serve you best, I would just like to ask some questions to that we can get some further information over to our local team who can then assess your requirements and provide details on whether the trip is accessible for a traveller with a walker.

      Can you walk more than 500m/1 km/more without assistance?
      Do you have plans in place pre-arrival/departure for access issues that may arise on flights and in airports (ie. on many airlines it's impossible for travellers in wheelchairs to board or use facilities)
      Can you get in/out of a standard vehicle unaided (car/van/bus/train)?
      Can you manage on uneven surfaces (ie. rocky, sandy, cobblestones, gravel)?
      Do you require accessible bathroom/toilet facilities? (e.g. Rails in the shower/bath) Can you manage squat toilets?
      Can you walk up and down stairs unaided? How many steps can you cope with unaided?
      Will fatigue impact your mobility?
      Is sitting/getting up from the ground an issue?
      Are you likely to need any additional stops or services beyond what we would normally do on a trip?

    Asked on January 20th, 2023

    Could you please tell me if there is a single person price supplement? Would I have a room to myself at the accommodation or would he to share?

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    • Intrepid PremiumOperator•Written January 2023

      If you would like to secure your own room for the duration of the trip it would be an additional $800 USD.

If you do not want to add the additional single supplement we will pair you with another traveler of the same gender if there is one.
