Full service description:

AllWays Travel is an independent, award-nominated Scottish travel agency specialising in accessible and inclusive holidays. We believe everyone should have the opportunity to travel with confidence, regardless of age, disability or additional support needs.

We work with disabled travellers, unpaid carers, families, older people, support workers and care providers to plan holidays that genuinely meet each person's individual requirements. Our service includes accessible accommodation, adapted transfers, airport assistance, accessible cruises, sports travel, family holidays and tailor-made trips both in the UK and abroad.

We take the time to understand every traveller's needs before recommending a holiday and, wherever possible, verify accessibility information directly with suppliers to help avoid unexpected surprises. Whether someone uses a wheelchair, travels with medical equipment, has a hidden disability or simply needs additional support, we provide honest advice and personalised guidance from the initial enquiry through to their return home.

Unlike many people expect, we do not charge our customers a fee for our service. Like traditional high street travel agents, we are paid by our travel suppliers, meaning our specialist knowledge and personalised support come at no extra cost.

We also work with charities, care providers and support organisations to help the people they support enjoy safe, accessible and memorable holidays, giving individuals, families and carers the confidence to explore the world together.

Price information:

We do not charge customers a fee for our service. Like traditional high street travel agents, we are paid by our travel suppliers, so our expert advice, planning and ongoing support come at no extra cost. Holiday prices vary depending on destination, travel dates and individual requirements.

Any other information you think people might find helpful:

AllWays Travel is an independent, award-nominated Scottish travel agency and an ABTA member, providing ATOL protected holidays where applicable. We support travel throughout the UK and worldwide, taking the time to understand each person's individual needs before recommending suitable options. We also work with charities, care providers and support organisations and are happy to discuss group bookings, supported holidays and travel for people with complex accessibility requirements. If you're unsure whether a holiday is possible, we'd encourage you to get in touch.
