Thanks to a generous gift from the Diana Davis Spencer Foundation to Friends of Acadia, we have a wheelchair accessible carriage that can comfortably accommodate one passenger in a wheelchair and one or two additional passengers. The floor space in the wheelchair carriage is 33” x 56”. To make a reservation for a tour using this carriage, call or e-mail us.
