It is a blog created by blind people in which they describe their personal experiences as travellers.
They offer recommendations, experiences and advice by combining their knowledge as blind people with their great experience as travellers.
Objectives:
They seek to raise awareness of the need for tourism for all, an inclusive tourism:
- To bring tourism closer to everyone, especially visually impaired people.
- To make visible and to make society aware of the need for an inclusive tourism.
- To inform and advise tourist destinations, travel agencies, tour operators..., of the social and economic benefits of making their products accessible.
- To be an intermediary between clients and interested parties (travel agencies, tour operators, tourist destinations...)
- Collaborate and advise on the implementation of materials and technologies that make the destinations accessible.
Implementation: How is it implemented?
They visit the tourist areas and try out first-hand transport, urban accessibility, hotel and restaurant establishments, and main tourist attractions. They then publish the information in their blog. They also collaborate with other publications in the disability sector in general, providing specific experiences for blind travellers.
They have an extensive catalogue of travel experiences for the blind in Spain with their own ratings.
In the audiophoto section they collect evocative sounds of nature recorded during their travels and describe some of their experiences
