Which major Irish attractions have step free access, accessible parking or sensory supports?
Start with the venues that publish a proper access statement, and check it before you book. In Dublin, the Guinness Storehouse is fully step free with lifts to all floors, accessible parking and free wheelchairs to borrow, and it runs sensory friendly sessions with reduced noise. Titanic Belfast is step free throughout, with accessible parking and audio and sign language guides. The National Gallery of Ireland and the National Museum sites are step free with lifts, and the Cliffs of Moher and the Giant's Causeway both pair step free visitor centres with accessible parking. Historic houses and castles are the mixed picture: ground floors often work, upper floors often do not. The access statement, not the brochure, tells you which.
