It depends what country you are wishing to visit. I know that many of the stately homes and castles in the UK have retro fitted disabled/wheelchair access, if only by having elevators put in. Trains will help you on by bringing out ramps too, but it is better if you let them know in advance.

I don't know of any off the
I don't know of any off the top of my head, but I'm sure you can call tour operators/etc to find out more information, or maybe research it online (not on a forum, but the actually place you are looking to visit). :)
