The following limitations apply to participation, including those activities that are not available to people with a disability: While we strive to provide inclusive experiences for all guests, there are certain limitations based on the nature of the activities, the terrain, and the available resources. These limitations are important to communicate to ensure that guests with disabilities can make informed decisions and fully enjoy the experience while maintaining safety. Kayaking: Physical Strength Requirements: While we provide adaptive kayaks and equipment to make kayaking accessible, guests with significant upper body limitations or those unable to engage with paddling movements may experience difficulty participating in this activity. While we do offer assistance at accessible launch sites, some participants may find it challenging to navigate open waters without full use of their arms. Weather Conditions: Severe weather, including strong winds and high waves, can create conditions that may not be safe for participants with mobility impairments or those using adaptive equipment. In such cases, kayaking activities may be canceled or modified to ensure safety. Walking Tours: Uneven Terrain: Although we strive to offer accessible walking routes, some paths may still have uneven surfaces, rocky areas, or inclines that could be difficult for participants in wheelchairs, scooters, or those with limited mobility to navigate. Some of our natural trails may also include areas with tree roots, rocks, or other obstacles that limit accessibility. Limited Pathway Access: Certain areas of our walking tours may require traveling through unpaved terrain or areas with steep inclines, which may not be suitable for participants using mobility aids or those with severe walking limitations. Forest and Ocean Therapy: Limited Accessibility to Remote Locations: Some of our forest and ocean therapy experiences occur in more remote or rugged locations. These may involve uneven ground, steep gradients, or paths that are not easily accessible for wheelchairs or individuals with mobility challenges. Sensory Engagement in Remote Areas: For some participants with sensory disabilities, the open or remote environments may present challenges in communication or sensory stimulation, particularly in outdoor areas without clear structures or aids for those with hearing or visual impairments. Bush Tucker and Nature-Based Experiences: Terrain Challenges: While we work to ensure accessibility during our bush tucker experiences, certain locations may involve navigating rough or uneven terrain. Participants with mobility impairments may find it challenging to access all areas where bush tucker plants are located. Seating and Rest Areas: While we provide seating areas, there may be instances where the terrain does not allow for comfortable seating or safe access for those using wheelchairs or other mobility aids. Some areas may not have sufficient seating options for long-duration experiences. Multi-Day Eco-Tour Adventures: Accommodation and Transport Limitations: While we provide accessible accommodations and transportation, there may be some limitations in certain remote areas where the terrain is not fully wheelchair accessible. Some of the more rugged multi-day eco-tours may not be suitable for guests with severe mobility restrictions due to challenges posed by rough terrain and camping setups. Limited Accessible Routes: Multi-day tours that involve hiking through remote areas may be inaccessible to individuals with significant mobility limitations. Some of the routes may require physical exertion or the ability to navigate through dense, uneven landscapes. Group and Private Tour Limitations: Custom Modifications: Although we offer tailored modifications for group and private tours, certain group-based activities or large tours may not always be as flexible in accommodating specific needs. For example, larger groups may require more time to modify activities for accessibility, and certain activities may need to be adjusted to ensure participation is feasible for everyone. --- We continually strive to minimize these limitations and create an inclusive experience, but it is essential for guests with disabilities to contact us in advance to ensure we can provide the appropriate support and make necessary modifications. In some cases, certain activities may require alternative planning, or may be unavailable depending on the level of accessibility required. Please feel free to discuss any concerns with our team before booking to ensure we can create the best experience for you.
