Transportation

Many city buses and newer trams are accessible. Step-free access varies by metro and regional rail station.

Medical services

Hospitals and pharmacies are widely available. Carry an EHIC/GHIC if eligible and separate travel medical insurance.

Useful considerations

  • Research step-free routes instead of assuming every metro stop is accessible.
  • Ask hotels for exact doorway and bathroom measurements.
  • Bring translated copies of key medical instructions.
