 Access Tours - Grand Canyon
Grand Canyon

Update, April 7, 2010

Greetings,

We have two confirmed tour dates now and others are likely!!

They are:
Yellowstone: August 22 to 30
Yosemite: October 2 to 10

They are each more than half full, with room for 3 or 4 more. If you have been considering either of these tours, here is your opportunity.

The Western Canyons and Land of Enchantment tours each need a couple more people before we declare them a go and set dates.

We have several Custom Tours scheduled during the next several months, but we can probably accommodate more. If you have a group of 5 or more and would like to schedule your own itinerary, please contact us to discuss the possibilities.

Because of the recent excitement regarding the Winter Olympic Games, we are considering reintroducing our Northwest tour, modified to include at least 3 nights in Vancouver, B.C.. As in the past, we would also take a ferry to Victoria, on Vancouver Island, and visit the world-famous Butchart Gardens. The tour begins and ends in Seattle, also a splendid place to explore. If you are excited by the idea of this tour and would like to take it if available, again — let us know!

As you may know, until the economy rebounds, we have had to modify the way in which we set the dates for our scheduled tours. This is because of the large amounts of time and costs involved for us to create an itinerary and make reservations, only to have to cancel them if not enough people sign up. Prior to last year, this had never been a problem in our 22 years of providing accessible tours in the West.

So, we’re being cautious in committing resources to specific tour dates until we have enough people (only 5), who have demonstrated genuine interest in a particular tour.

This is how we’re doing it: If you would like to take one of the tours and the approximate time will work for you, then please call or email us and we will pencil you in. As soon as we have 5 people for that tour, we will work to acquire reservations at the hotels involved, for dates that will fall within our general time period.

So we need your responses, because you need to help us help you!

If you are unfamiliar with Access Tours, you might like to know that our guests come from all over the United States, as well as Europe. Group sizes are small, usually limited to 10 people, the pace relaxed, the company friendly. We are knowledgeable, experienced, and considerate of all the various mobility impairments you might have. Of course, our buses have wheelchair lifts. It is easy to take a tour with us — you are picked up at the airport when you arrive and taken to the airport at departure.

We try hard and spend much time in finding the most suitable hotels for your special needs, and in selecting activities for you to enjoy. Accessibility still isn't ideal — far from it, but we pave the way, so that your journey will be full of terrific memories.

Our tours are educational and enlightening and you will return home with new knowledge and wonderful experiences from this Western country.

If you find a tour that appeals to you, don't delay in calling to make your reservation. We look forward to the pleasure of your company.

Come enjoy the West with us!

Access Tours is a service of Access Institute, a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization, and we are always most appreciative of the tax-deductible contributions that many people make, both in-kind (vehicles or stocks, etc.) and money. They have helped greatly to keep Access going. There are always needs, whether to help someone be able to take a tour who might not be able to otherwise, to acquire equipment, or attempting to raise funds for a new bus for next year.
