Our vacations are structured as All inclusive group trips with a 1:4 Volunteer chaperone: traveler ratio, bringing together people with a wide range of disabilities and support needs. Each traveler receives support based on their individual level of care, while still participating in a shared group setting.
We do not offer trips that are limited to a single diagnosis or disability type. This includes:
• Autism‑only trips
• Wheelchair‑only trips
• Trips designed exclusively around one specific disability
• Trips grouped by cognitive level or functioning labels
• Trips separated by medical conditions (e.g., epilepsy‑only, diabetes‑only)
• Trips organized around behavioral profiles or support needs alone
Our program is intentionally inclusive. Travelers participate together in a diverse group setting, and support is provided individually—not by separating or categorizing travelers based on a single diagnosis.
We believe in creating a community where travelers learn from one another, explore together, and enjoy meaningful shared moments. Every traveler receives the support they need, but no trip is built around a single diagnosis or disability type.
If you are seeking placement only with individuals who share a specific disability, or if your loved one does not wish to travel alongside people with different disabilities, unfortunately we are not able to accommodate that request. Our program is intentionally inclusive, and our group model depends on travelers being comfortable in a diverse setting.
We also protect the privacy of every traveler. We do not disclose personal or medical information—including diagnoses or support needs—to other travelers or families. This information is shared only with staff and trained volunteers who need it to ensure safety, supervision, and appropriate support. Protecting the privacy and dignity of our travelers is one of our highest priorities.

DISCLAIMER: Determining the Need for One‑on‑One Supervision.
Time Of Your Life Vacations LLC reserves the right to determine whether a traveler requires one‑on‑one supervision. This decision may be based on information provided in the Traveler Information Form, conversations with guardians or support staff, and any behaviors, support needs, or safety concerns observed during past or current trips.
Time Of Your Life Vacations LLC may determine that a traveler requires one‑on‑one supervision that we cannot reasonably or safely provide with our staff. This determination may be based on the traveler’s submitted forms, conversations with caregivers or agency staff, or behaviors and support needs observed during any trip.
If we determine that a traveler needs one‑on‑one supervision beyond what we can Safely accommodate, we may require the traveler’s family, guardian, or agency to provide a qualified one‑on‑one support person as a condition of participation. This ensures the safety, dignity, and well‑being of the traveler, as well as the safety of other travelers and staff.
***All costs associated with providing or arranging one‑on‑one support are the responsibility of the traveler, guardian, or agency.
***Caregivers, agency staff, and family members attending one‑on‑one with a traveler will be charged the same trip cost as the traveler.
