Dahlia Africa’s motivation to offer wheelchair accessible tours stems from the desire to ensure that individuals with disabilities have equal access to travel experiences in Africa. The disability community is a significant segment of the population but many people with disabilities have limited travel options especially due to the accessibility barriers of the African continent. The company is attempting to bridge that gap.
Tanzania is well known for its incredible wildlife and safari experiences, with many national parks, reserves and the white sand beach at Zanzibar Islands that offers opportunities to see a wide variety of animals in their natural habitat. Traditionally, the able-bodied experience these things on a regular basis, so Dahlia Africa is now helping to break down these barriers and create inclusive travel opportunities for individuals with mobility impairments. This increases accessibility and enables people with disabilities to explore new destinations, enjoy cultural experiences, and create lasting memories, just like anyone else.
Offering wheelchair accessible tours is also in response to the growing demand for accessible travel services. As awareness and understanding of accessibility issues increase, more individuals and families are seeking travel options that cater to specific accessibility requirements. Dahlia Africa recognizes this need and strives to accommodate it by providing accessible tour packages. Overall, their motivation to offer wheelchair accessible tours comes from a commitment to inclusivity, recognition of the market demand, and the intention to enhance travel experiences for people with disabilities.
