At Vavava, we believe that tourism should be an accessible, enriching, and barrier-free experience for everyone, regardless of their abilities. That’s why, since the very beginning, we’ve been dedicated to designing and offering tailored trips, activities, and experiences, ensuring that every adventure is crafted to be enjoyed without limits.
Drawing from our experience working with people with various types of disabilities, we present a selection of the 12 best inclusive activities, perfect for those who want to travel, discover, and connect with the world in a safe and comfortable way.
1. Adapted hiking in natural landscapes
Thanks to all-terrain wheelchairs and accessible trails, adapted hiking allows people with reduced mobility to enjoy stunning natural scenery. At Vavava, we partner with protected parks and nature reserves that have invested in well-marked and accessible paths, especially in areas like the Costa Brava or the Catalan Pyrenees.
2. Tandem or adapted tricycle rides
For people with visual impairments or mild mobility challenges, tandem bikes or adapted tricycles provide a unique and joyful experience. Riding through greenways or natural areas becomes a safe, fun, and shared activity. In many of our trips, we include this option on smooth, well-maintained routes.
3. Cultural tourism with sign language interpretation
At Vavava, we organize cultural visits to museums, historic centers, and monuments accompanied by sign language interpreters. This allows deaf and hard-of-hearing visitors to fully engage with the cultural and historical richness of each location. Many of our guides are also trained in accessible communication.
4. Urban routes without architectural barriers
Cities like Barcelona, Valencia, or Málaga have made significant efforts toward urban accessibility. At Vavava, we create custom routes through inclusive cities, where transportation, entryways, and services are adapted. Our team ensures that every hotel, restaurant, and attraction meets universal accessibility standards.
5. Sensory and experiential workshops
Through smell, touch, taste, or music, sensory workshops provide a deep connection with the environment—perfect for individuals with intellectual or visual disabilities. We’ve hosted inclusive cooking sessions, adapted musical experiences, and visits to farms where contact with animals and nature is direct and therapeutic.
6. Adapted water sports
Did you know that surfing, kayaking, or sailing are all possible for people with disabilities? At Vavava, we work with specialized nautical centers and schools equipped with adaptive gear and trained instructors to ensure safety and enjoyment in the water. The feeling of freedom and empowerment is simply unforgettable.
7. Equine therapy and horseback riding
Interacting with horses brings incredible benefits—physical, emotional, and cognitive. Equine therapy is practiced in safe, natural environments and is especially beneficial for people with cerebral palsy, ASD, or Down syndrome. Many of our trips include this activity as part of a therapeutic and healing approach.
8. Inclusive winery tours
Accessible wine tourism is an excellent option for those who love culture, gastronomy, and rural settings. We organize winery visits with adapted access, inclusive tastings, and settings fully prepared to welcome guests with reduced mobility, hearing impairments, or intellectual disabilities.
9. Inclusive rural tourism
At Vavava, we promote responsible and inclusive tourism in charming villages, with accessible accommodations and nature-based activities. Forest walks, traditional meals, and craft workshops make rural experiences truly memorable for everyone.
10. Accessible theme and adventure parks
Many theme parks are now embracing inclusion. From priority access to adapted rides, today’s parks offer thrilling experiences for all. We organize trips to places like PortAventura, where we follow special protocols to guarantee safety and enjoyment for every traveler.
11. Inclusive artistic workshops
Painting, ceramics, photography, theater… Adapted artistic activities foster self-expression and build self-esteem. At Vavava, we collaborate with art professionals experienced in inclusive education to create inspiring, creative, and connecting experiences.
12. Group travel with professional support
One of our most valued offerings is group travel with technical and emotional support. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or a longer journey, our team takes care of everything—accessibility, personalized attention, and an inclusive environment where everyone feels safe, supported, and happy.
