Abstract

This study addressed the role of the tour guide in developing the spatial ability of people with mobility disabilities, as they are a group that cannot be ignored in tourism. They have their own activities and their own mobility requirements, and they must be given the opportunity in application of the principle of equality and justice among tourists. In light of this, the main question arose (What is the role of the tour guide in developing the spatial ability of people with physical disabilities?) Expressed in a number of intellectual axes. Caring for people with physical disabilities represents one of the criteria for the success of the tourist trip in particular and people with disabilities in general. The researchers reached this conclusion through the study. To a number of recommendations, the most important of which are: the necessity of knowing methods for developing spatial ability in teaching directions, how to explain, and providing the possibility of touching objects for tourists.
