1. Our Commitment
Aurore Overland is committed to supporting travellers with accessibility needs by providing safe, inclusive, and flexible travel experiences. While our vehicles and itineraries are designed for remote and overland travel, we aim to accommodate individual requirements wherever reasonably possible.
We encourage guests to share accessibility needs before travel so appropriate arrangements can be considered.
2. Accessible Travel Environment
Nature of Travel
Our journeys may include:
-
Remote or regional road conditions
-
4WD vehicle travel over uneven terrain
-
Outdoor activities and campsite-based stays
-
Limited infrastructure in some locations
Because of this, some experiences may present accessibility challenges.

Reduced-sensory planning where possible (e.g. quieter seating arrangements)

This information is stored securely and only shared with relevant staff

In an emergency, staff will assist guests based on their individual needs and safest evacuation method available
-
Remote travel conditions may affect response times, and plans are adjusted accordingly

-
In some cases, a companion may be necessary for safety or assistance reasons in remote environments

Support persons may be asked to assist during boarding, activities, or emergency situations
8. Planning Your Trip
To help us support your needs, we recommend advising us at the time of booking if you require:
-
Accessible vehicle assistance
-
Mobility support
-
Medical considerations
-
Additional time or flexible scheduling
The earlier we know, the better we can plan safely and comfortably.
9. Limitations
Due to the nature of overland travel in remote areas:

Full accessibility (as defined by urban standards) cannot always be guaranteed
-
Some locations may not be physically accessible
-
Terrain and weather conditions may change accessibility at short notice
We will always aim to offer reasonable alternatives where possible.
