PASSEPARTOUR 2019 FIRENZE OLTRARNO THE KEYS OF ACCESSIBILITY Florence is a world heritage site and as such it must be accessible to all, without exclusion. Florence welcomes people with physical disabilities due to an abundance of pedestrian areas and accessible historical and artistic sites. It is also unde- niable that some routes of the city-center - similar to many other historical cities throughout the world - may present some difficulties for people using wheelchairs: for example narrow streets, tiny sidewalks that are not easily passable or not homogeneous pavement. To address this problem and provide information on which paths are the best to follow for people with physical disabilities, the Municipality of Florence in collaboration with Kinoa Srl have designed and published this Guide. The PASSEPARTOUR project is made up of four volumes, each describing four different tourist itineraries "without barriers". In addition, the guide provides a map of the historical city-center, highlighting all the areas that can be navigated with complete autonomy, or with the support of a helper. In addition, Kinoa has developed the navigation app Kimap, which acts as a companion tool to the guide for the mobility of disabled people. Kimap can be downloaded for free on every smartphone: the app shows the most accessible path to reach your desired destination and is constantly updated. We hope that this project will contribute to improve the tourist experi- ence for those visiting our marvellous City, opening the doors to its extraordinary heritage.

Cecilia Del Re Councilor for Tourism of the City of Florence What is Passepartour, the keys to accessibility Will I be able to enter this museum with my wheelchair? Which route should I take to get to this church or restaurant? Where can I find the services I need? These are the questions that we want to answer here. Created using the Kimap technology, which allows to trace the most accessible route and map the accessibility of points of interest and services, Passepartour shows to tourists on wheelchairs or electric scooters the easiest itinerary to follow to reach the main Florentine tourist attractions, providing also the location of accessible services. With the creation and constant updating of this guide, Kinoa srl, developer of the Kimap technology, intends to offer an essential service to re- duce the information barriers to accessibility and to develop a tourism truly “for all” in Florence.
