Tour was fine/ not good for those who are hard of hearing
Courtney
, Oct 2020
The tour itself was fine. We had a member of our group who is deaf. She could not hear anything & was unable to read lips. There was no pamphlet to go along with the tour. The tour guides mask covered the mouth, so she was not even able to read lips. It’s very disappointing that a person who is disabled was not given special accommodations. There are many options that could have been implemented to help those who are hard of hearing. Masks with plastic covering over the mouth. Plastic face shields (as seen on other tours). It’s something to think about in this day and age where masks are required. She unfortunately had to pay for a tour that she couldn’t participate in or hear.

All of the things you mentioned in your review are accommodations that we provide... except for the face shield instead of mask; that doesn't meet the state guidelines. We have also hired sign language interpreters for tours in the past. If you had let us know, with reasonable notice, we could have done any of these things. We love to keep out tour inclusive, and with a simple email beforehand, we can make sure every guest has a full experience, regardless of most disabilities.
