The label
The Tourist Office is labeled “Tourism & Handicap” for the 4 deficiencies. Thus, it acts by raising awareness of the right of access to tourism for all. A single goal: to make the daily lives of people with disabilities easier.
With this in mind, various actions have been carried out: publication of documents, creation of guided tours and adapted tourist products, development of the premises of the Tourist Office, training of reception staff and tour guides.
Amenities
Are made available free of charge:
- Visual impairment : Audio-guided tours of two key sites (Avignonet-Lauragais and Montgeard). The documentation in braille is provided on request from a Stay Advisor.
- Mental handicap : game booklets for adapted visits to do in complete freedom on the Avignonet and Montgeard sites.
- Hearing impairment : hearing aid for guided tours thanks to the loan of a listening amplifier. For hearing-impaired people equipped with a sound system, a magnetic loop, with sound amplification, allows them to communicate with the Stay Advisors at the Tourist Office counter.
