Home » Reader question » Reader question: Arranged holiday for a man alone with a wheelchair
Dear readers,
Where can I go on a fully catered holiday in Thailand, as a man alone with a wheelchair with a hand bike. I can go all year except December.
Regards,
Wim
I recommend Nan, a good Thai friend of mine, who can take care of you and fulfill all your wishes. Speaks reasonable English. Costs 1000 baht per day. If you are interested, you can chat with him via messenger and you can make appointments if necessary.
I think it is better to put this question to a travel agent.
Although Thailand is certainly not wheelchair friendly and you are alone, traveling and moving around will be easy.
High curbs, many obstacles on the sidewalk, etc.
Let alone traveling by bus or taxi or bts.
Almost no elevators at the bts.
Maybe an option to visit hua hin.
Perhaps the questioner can explain what exactly is meant.
A few weeks full board in a wheelchair-friendly resort/hotel is all?
Or would you also like to make guided excursions to suitable attractions?
To what extent do you need adapted sanitary and washing facilities?
Do you need personal guidance/care 24/7 or for a few hours a day?
Do you want something that has been set up specifically for people in need of care or are you looking for 'ordinary' accommodation that is also suitable/accessible for wheelchairs?
Almost anything is possible, just call!
Just on Jomtien Beach in view talay 5c. rent a studio near the beach.

the question is limited, sorry about that, I just need a hotel that is wheelchair friendly, I don't need any further help and I also need to be able to go outside with my wheelchair with hand bike and I also want to know if I can go with a
can make excursions and how expensive they are
Your question has also come up in a facebook page and I don't want to repeat myself but:
– wheelchair-friendly hotel can be found, consult the sites
– taxi, train, bus in and out, you will have to take a few steps there
– in domestic flying there is not a 'trunk' everywhere
– going up and down the sidewalk is not on your own
– you can go on the back roads in a back area, but do you get into a guesthouse or hotel without help?
– Excursions are not all equally expensive
– major roads and busy streets are to be avoided; dangerous
– pinning is difficult because most machines are 'at height'
– Public toilets for disabled people are not available everywhere and are often broken or locked.
After 25 years of Thailand, my advice is: not on your own. Bring guidance or hire it here.
If you are looking for hotels in a city of your choice on TripAdvisor, you can then click on 'More' in the column on the left under 'Amenities', then click on 'Wheelchair Access' and 'Reduced mobility rooms'.
Horizon Village. 200 M.7 Chiang Mai. Doi Saket Rd.
E-mail: [email protected] http://www.horizonvillage.net
General Manager: Seewapong Kumwang.
Super located, beautiful surroundings belonging to the hotel, restaurant belonging to the hotel, wheelchair accessible, honest and friendly service. I don't remember how much it costs, but you can ask for a room in the 'old' part. Everything there is on one level. It is on one level everywhere. Ask the Manager what you want to know. I have made trips by renting a car with a driver. But from the hotel there is also a bus at certain times that goes (free) to the city and returns at certain times.
Have a nice holiday.
