From a family experience came a commitment to inclusion

My name is Dominika, and I’m the founder of Barrera Cero.

This project was born from a deeply personal experience: in 2021, my husband Danny, with whom I’ve shared my life in the Canary Islands for over a decade, suffered a spinal cord injury that left him in a wheelchair.

From that moment, accessibility stopped being an abstract idea and became part of our everyday life.

Getting to a beach, boarding public transport, or finding truly adapted accommodation became a constant challenge.

But it was also the starting point for something bigger: truly understanding the visible and invisible barriers thousands of travellers with reduced mobility face.

And that’s how Barrera Cero was born — a project that combines my passion for tourism with our shared desire to change the game.

Because everyone deserves to enjoy a holiday without limits, with freedom, safety, and excitement.

OUR STORY

We want to inspire you to discover the most active, authentic, and accessible side of the Canary Islands.

We firmly believe that everyone has the right to enjoy a dignified, barrier-free holiday.

That’s why we work with passion to create a personalised travel plan that adapts to your accessibility needs, your pace, and your preferences.

From accommodation, transport, and assistance to all the accessible services we offer:

We take care of every detail so you can focus on what really matters — enjoying yourself.
