The German National Tourist Office (GNTO) today hosted a product workshop and round table discussion to set up the necessities for promoting accessibility travel from the united kingdom to Germany – an idea called Barrier Free Travel.
Representatives from tour operator companies, disability charity organisations, travel website specialists, plus Deutsche Bahn and the Germany Embassy were all eager about the discussions. These included subjects corresponding to methods of assisted travel, different levels of accommodation, inspiring activities for every age and for all kinds of needs; in brief, how visitors to Germany could experience the fullest, most fun and barrier-free holidays as possible.
Klaus Lohmann, the director for the GNTO UK and Ireland said: “The London Paralympics set a dynamic and vital example to the area in helping to bring the topic of disability into the mainstream. We wish to keep this dynamism going, that’s why we are going to be doing all we are able to to expose that holidays in Germany can offer something for everybody inside the most simple and rewarding way”.
The workshop comes before a campaign, to be announced summer 2013, for you to show just how the GNTO could be supporting the united kingdom travel industry and consumers curious about barrier-free holidays. Any travel professionals inquisitive about this campaign should contact the GNTO.
