Absolutely!  We have a lot of travelers who bring their own care providers.  It is the traveler’s responsibility to provide and pay for their care provider to go on the vacation.  Care providers pay the same all-inclusive package price as the traveler.  The traveler and their care provider will be upgraded with their own private room.

Several of our trips are wheelchair accessible.  Lift vans are also available at some destinations.  Please note the symbols next to the vacation descriptions.  If the traveler needs a wheelchair to keep up with the group, we can provide a Trips Inc. chaperone to assist them at an additional cost.

Trips Inc.™ has our own travel agent on staff who will arrange air transportation from your area to the vacation destination.  Since we serve travelers from every state in the country, we will meet you at, or enroute to, our final destination.   While the traveler does not need to navigate the airport on their own, they do need to be able to fly unaccompanied in some cases.  Airline gate assistance passes can be obtained to walk your traveler through security and directly to the gate and we will meet your traveler upon arrival at the final destination.
