I have had some luck in the past few days with finding tours
fitted for mobility restricted travelers around Lisbon. They don’t require a
credit card or haven’t asked strange questions, so I am hopeful they will work
out.
In searching for local tour guides in the Algarve, I stumbled upon a
company based in Vancouver that uses locals to create tours of their region. It
may work out, but it hasn’t been finalized yet. So, I have all the major things
booked- the flight, accommodation, transfers, and now we just have to explore
how to travel around while I am there. Most people have been very helpful and
responsive, but whether that translates into anything tangible when I arrive is yet to be
seen.
One of the problems with using email as a means of
communication is that a person is at the mercy of the other person’s response
time. They don’t always respond quickly
and if you forgot one small detail then the wait begins again. Sometimes, I
just pay for the call if there isn’t a 1-800 number just so I can get a
complete and instant response. I can ask all my questions and hear whether or
not the people are interested in my needs.If the tours work out well I will post the company names. I
don’t want to promote anyone that doesn’t follow through.
