Guided tours for visually impaired persons

Arkadia is actively seeking to make its tours accessible to as many people as possible.
We propose a series of original, multi-sensory tours for groups of blind and visually impaired visitors.
Tours are adapted to include tactile aids, such as relief drawings, musical extracts, and sometimes tastings...

To ensure a pleasant and enriching experience, we limit group size to a maximum of 16 people (including accompanying persons).

Our guides are trained by our partner Eqla Asbl.

The tours have been developed with the support of visit.brussels and Bruxelles Environnement.
