And you think you would have problems?? I get totally knackered crawling thru a rainforest *lol* I remember once I was about to drop and was being pushed along the way by an elderly guy. Later we were chatting and I asked his age - 74!!! *lol* He was fitter than me and a "senior"!!

Seriously... there is lot to see without the "eco-extreme" element and it's also not that bad getting into remote locations with a vehicle. There are also a number of places elements of wildlife are assembled eg .. the "Crocodile Dundee" I mentioned has a range of species in his "facility" and loves to show folks around.

That is one thing which has been getting highlighted recently - accessibility. There is now a more conscious effort to design lodges/hotels etc with proper access features. Got another biz in development of eco-related and eco-tourism lodges and facilities - and accessibility is being thought of at the design stage, not as an afterthought and tacked on. The tourist board here (ICT) also has a list of hotels/lodges which have full facilities - so, think about it

Even without all the eco-extreme, it can be a nice place to hang out and very relaxing. Wish I had more time to do that!!
