Full service description:
Every Traveleyes holiday features equal numbers of blind and sighted participants, some travelling solo, and some as groups of friends. Whatever the holiday situation we offer the ultimate group travel experience where sociability, flexibility and choice remain paramount. This means that visual impairment no longer necessitates the need to travel with family members. Travellers can now choose a destination from our fully accessible website or audio brochure, contact Traveleyes, book, then go! Our holiday destinations cover Europe, Africa, Asia, Australasia and The Americas.

Any other information you think people might find helpful:
As a blind or visually impaired person, you will now be able to read travel books whilst on the move. In fact, you will now be flicking faster through your ‘Lonely Planet’ guide than sighted people, in search of information on destinations, hotels, boat cruises, cultural features, or merely for pure inspirational insight. All this is now attainable using your own speech programmes and magnification software on your PC computers and Portable Digital Assistants (PDAs). Please note to receive a copy of Lonely Planet Guide we require a copy of your blind registration certificate faxed to us at +44 8709 220221 or emailed to us at the address above. Once we receive this, we will post out your accessible LP CD in text format. If you require any further information please don’t hesitate to contact us.
