01 - Introduction to the Accessible South Africa Podcast

Network error while loading playlist url
This is a podcast where we discuss travel in South Africa and beyond for persons with disabilities and special needs. With this podcast we hope to inspire other people with disabilities to travel more, to go out and explore and find out what the world has to offer. We’ll be sharing interviews with other travellers with disabilities, as well as with service providers in the tourism industry, and anyone with insight into accessible travel.
