Marcia Frost knows how to tell a travel story. After years as one of the country’s top tennis writers, Marcia turned her attention to travel, food, and wellness. Today, as a full-time wheelchair user living with multiple autoimmune diseases, she uses that storytelling expertise to help travelers discover accessible adventures and to help destinations understand what true accessibility looks like.

Named one of Feedspot’s Top Disabled Travel Influencers of 2025, Marcia has built a trusted voice for Baby Boomers and older travelers who use wheelchairs, scooters, and other mobility devices. She shows what it actually feels like to travel well while managing chronic illness and mobility challenges.

Marcia has written for outlets including SheBuysTravel, Accessible Journeys Magazine, Fodor’s, and Long Weekends. Her own platform, formerly Wine and Spirits Travel, has been rebranded as Ageless Accessible Adventures, reflecting her focus on accessible travel and experiences for older adults and travelers with disabilities.

Her work also extends beyond storytelling. Marcia is currently working with Greater Miami & Miami Beach to update its content and has six upcoming assignments with a new outlet scheduled for this fall.

Marcia recently shared her experience in Huntsville, Alabama, highlighting the unique, accessible, and welcoming places she discovered and reminding us that meaningful travel is for everyone. Check out her experience in North Alabama here.

Next, she is setting sail with Celebrity Cruises on a bucket-list trip to Greece, a destination with special meaning for her. Twenty-five years ago, her parents visited Greece in wheelchairs and were unable to get off their cruise ship. Marcia knows there is still progress to be made, but she has also witnessed firsthand how far accessible travel has come.

Across her social platforms, Marcia reaches a community of more than 15,000 travelers, including older adults and wheelchair users actively looking for destinations that make travel easier, healthier, and more enjoyable. Follow her on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn.

Destinations interested in working with Marcia or reaching Baby Boomers and travelers with mobility disabilities can contact her directly at Marcia@MarciaFrost.com.
