I'm A Traveller

Are you a traveller with a disability? Do you dream of diving the Great Barrier Reef or exploring the ancient ruins of Rome but worry about accessibility or finding the right support?

Imagine:

Cruising the Whitsunday Islands in Australia on a fully accessible ship with wide doorways, ramps, and lowered countertops, giving you access to explore the pristine beaches and vibrant coral reefs with ease.

How we help you travel as part of your NDIS plan

Even though NDIS won’t directly fund your holiday expenses like travel, accommodation, or entertainment, you might be able to claim some NDIS funding for essential support you need while on your trip. This will depend on the details of your NDIS plan and your individual circumstances.

Here’s what you can potentially claim:

Support worker assistance: If you require a support worker to accompany you on your trip, you can use your Core funding to cover their time. This funding only pays for their support, not their travel or accommodation costs. You’ll need to discuss and agree on how these additional costs will be covered beforehand. Make sure to document the agreed upon hours of support in a quote or service agreement.
Assistive Technology
Specific accommodation expenses – such as the additional costs for an accessible room to meet your accessibility needs
Accessible transport and additional baggage costs (for equipment)

To determine if and how much you can claim, it’s best to consult with:

Supported Travel eXperiences (STX): We can help you explore what funding options might be available based on your NDIS plan and goals.
your Support Coordinator or Plan Manager: They can advise you on how your specific needs and plan can be incorporated into claiming for support during your trip.

What our clients say

We recently enjoyed a night away staying on Level 73 with an impressive view. We are very grateful for the work done by Yann, Andrew and Mandi at Supported Travel eXperiences and are looking forward to the next time we can head away for a break a little further away from home.

Thank you Mandi for taking the time to book our weekend away. Trying to find wheelchair accessible accommodation for a family is always a challenge. Thank you for finding the right place for us. I look forward to using your services again when booking our next holiday. Thank you.

From both my family and I, we would like to 'Thank you’ for all your assistance with my travel arrangements. There is so much that I am grateful for, you have been so understanding, patient and generously kind throughout. You made sure that I was well informed and updated every step of my time here. I have absolutely enjoyed my time away.
