Do you have a recommended travel agent? Or places to go?
My father has Parkinson's, and my mother is physically impaired due to a series of joint replacements. My brother and I are in our early 20s and are physically fine. I'm also comfortable driving in foreign countries (though they might have a heart attack letting me do that, lol).
My dad recently came into an inheritance and would like to travel as a family. There's a pretty big budget. Italy or the Southern Pacific has been discussed; frankly, with the budget I've been given, it could be two separate trips, even three. I think it's pretty open location-wise beyond those parameters, but they're not interested in the Middle East as my dad was stationed there.
Cruises seem too active, and tours create a schedule where my dad, who needs a long afternoon nap, cannot participate. Neither of them can be walking on cobblestones or up and down staircases all day and need frequent breaks. They don't want to sit on a beach for 10 days. We all enjoy local culture, history, art, and food.
Have you found a travel agent who's particularly understanding of Parkinson's? Or places you've travelled that have been more accessible than you would think?
Thank you!
