Disabled Visitors

Italy has no special reputation for providing facilities for disabled travelers. For people in wheelchairs, the haphazard parking habits and stepped village streets are serious obstacles, and public toilets with disabled access are rare. In the major cities and coastal resorts, however, ramps or other forms of access are gradually being added to hotels, museums and some theatres and concert halls. APF, the French paraplegic organization, which has an office in each department, will be the most reliable source of information on accommodation with disabled access and other facilities.

Public transport is certainly not wheelchair-friendly, and although many train stations now have ramps to enable wheelchair users to board and descend from carriages, at others it is still up to the guards to carry the chair. The high-speed TGVs (including Eurostar) all have places for wheelchairs in the First Class saloon coach, which you must book in advance, though no higher fee is charged; on other trains, a wheelchair symbol within the timetable denotes whether that service offers special features, and you and your companion will again be upgraded to first class with no extra charge. The Guide du Voyageur à Mobilité Réduite , available free at main train stations, details all facilities.

Therefore, it is no more an issue for the disabled people to enjoy the trip of other countries. The only issue they can face is to travel via a public transport. You can solve this issue by getting a car rental in Italy. When you will enter in Italy, you can hire a car on Italy airport.  The Italy car rentals can also make you to enjoy the thrilling and excited places of Italy without any hindrance. Hence, a car hire in Italy can make your journey exciting and pleasing for you. So, if you are a disable person then do not feel any complexity and just plan the trip to Italy.
