Welcome to The Virginia Travel Guide for Persons with Disabilities, Sixth Edition

If you have a disability, any kind of travel can be an adventure. You need more information than just symbols, charts, phone numbers or brief descriptions. Accessible Virginia is the Web source for the most detailed travel access information.

The information contained in this web site gives detailed data and provides cross-disability information. We want our users to have the information necessary for making informed choices and not to have to call ahead for information. Our motto is, "Know before you go."

The Opening Door, Inc. has been publishing The Virginia Travel Guide for Persons with Disabilities for 20 years. The name conveys our mission. We are opening doors to persons with hearing, visual, mobility, and cognitive disabilities so they can enjoy all the wonderful things that Virginia has to offer.

This guide is done by people having physical or sensory disabilities for persons with disabilities. The listings on this site accepted the invitation to be part of this on-line guide. They are not the only accessible locations in Virginia. Data was obtained by on-site visits or accessibility questionnaires. On-site assessments were done by occupational, physical, or recreational therapists with persons with disabilities checking the assessments for accuracy.

All listings were accurate and verified at the time of uploading this site. The Opening Door, Inc. is not responsible for any changes occurring after April 30, 2009. Listings on this site does not imply any endorsement by The Opening Door, Inc., the Virginia Tourism Corporation, or the Commonwealth of Virginia.
