Olá
Adorei encontrar esse site, poi estou planejando ir para EUA começando por Chicago. Eu gostaria de saber onde posso comprar ou alugar cadeira de rodas em Chicago já que posso andar um pouco com muleta mas numa viagem se anda muito eu não aguento. Você sabe onde posso comprar uma cadeira de rodas manual?
Pelo oque eu li é possível passear de cadeira de roda inclusive o ônibus de tour aceita cadeirante.
Depois vou seguir viagem até New York passando por Washington, Philadelphia, Atlantic City juntamente com minha cadeira.
Muito obrigada!
