General Tips for Inclusive Tourism with Autistic People

Planning a trip with a child with autism or other invisible disabilities requires attention to several details. On this page, we have gathered some general accessibility tips that can help other families have a more peaceful experience.

1. Choosing times

Whenever possible, visit attractions during off-peak hours. This helps you avoid long lines and environments with excessive sound and visual stimuli.

2. Sensory preparation

Always carry items that help with your child's sensory regulation, such as mufflers, headphones, manipulative toys or favorite snacks.

3. Check accessibility in advance

Before you go, research whether the location offers facilities for accessibility for autistic people, such as preferential queue, sensory spaces or the use of the Sunflower Cord.

4. Communication with site staff

Don’t be afraid to tell staff that your family is traveling with a child with special needs. Many places are welcoming, even if they’re still learning about inclusion.

If you have any other tips or accessible places to recommend, please let us know! Your experience could help other families.
