A tourist office accessible to all
Created in 2001, the “TOURISME & HANDICAP” label aims to provide reliable, descriptive and objective information on the accessibility of tourist sites and facilities, taking into account the 4 types of disability (hearing, mental, motor and visual), and to develop an adapted tourist offer.
This evaluation is based on a number of criteria relating to architecture, facilities, quality of welcome and services.
The label is awarded following validation by departmental and national commissions.
In return, the tourism professional signs a charter of commitment to maintain the structure’s accessibility for a renewable period of 5 years.
In September 2023, the Gardanne Tourist Office will be awarded the “Tourisme et Handicap” label for all 4 types of disability.
