Abstract

Tourism in recent years has gone through a series of transformations which have been based on the evolution of society. Inclusion is an issue that has been addressed in many areas and tourism has not been unaware of this. Accessible tourism is precisely the result of this inclusive policy that obligates not only governments but also private companies in general, and thus establish a framework of equality as established by international law, codes of ethics and public policy. This work has been designed according to the needs of blind people looking for a space where their right to tourism is respected and managed. The research work was designed with a descriptive methodology with the application of data collection techniques and interviews with people involved in the subject. A design of a proposal of environmental tourist interpretation for people with visual disabilities was established in the Botanical Garden of the city of Guayaquil with technical recommendations of infrastructure and technology for the Botanical Garden of the city of Guayaquil considering the theories exposed in accessibility.
