One for the Books: 101 Accessible Vacations: Travel Ideas for Wheelers and Slow Walkers

June 4, 2026 by Eliana Satkin Leave a Comment

Book cover of "101 Accessible Vacations: Travel Ideas for Wheelers and Slow Walkers" by Candy B. Harrington, featuring a large cruise ship docked at a sunny coastal port.

TravelAbility’s Candy Harrington of Emerging Horizons has published the first guidebook dedicated exclusively to wheelchair-accessible destinations, lodgings and recreational opportunities. 101 Accessible Vacations contains destination information on over 101 cities, lodging options, national parks, tourist attractions and recreational activities around the country. The book is organized so readers can search for a holiday based on their specific interests or travel styles. 

“There’s a world of travel choices out there for wheelers and slow walkers. And this book contains many of those choices along with updated resources, information and access details to make them a reality.”

Candy Harrington

Unlike other guidebooks that are organized geographically, 101 Accessible Vacations includes sections ranging from road trips and the great outdoors to historic haunts and cruising. 

Candy describes the access of all attractions, lodging options and tourist sights, rather than just stating that something is or isn’t accessible. After all, accessibility is in the eye of the beholder and what may be accessible to one person can be filled with obstacles to someone else.

Harrington says, “There’s a world of travel choices out there for wheelers and slow walkers. And this book contains many of those choices along with updated resources, information and access details to make them a reality.”
