GraC Posted April 9 #1 Share Posted April 9 (edited) Hello, Anyone have experience with an electric wheelchair at any of the following ports (below)? I know there is a lot of cobblestone, but can an electric wheelchair get off the ship and explore. Are their required shuttles in the port? I'm interested in the Mediterranean Odyssey Cruise and I know in older cities it might be tricky, but is it possible I can get to the port towns? After some googling it looked like some ports required non-accessible shuttles to get out of the port, but wondering if private tours can access where we disembark the ship? Or if a shuttle is required to get out of the port? Or if it's possible to roll/walk out. Any other tips for electric wheelchair users on Viking cruise or other ones at these ports? Marseille, France Monte Carlo, Monaco Florence/Pisa (Livorno), Italy Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy Naples, Italy Corfu (Kérkyra), Greece Dubrovnik, Croatia Split, Croatia Venice, Italy Thanks so much. I appreciate it! Edited April 9 by GraC Typo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate it! Did you get any response? We’re sailing on the Odyssey OTS in October on a B2B. The first 12 nights to Italy, Greece, and Turkey, to be continued on a TA to Spain and Madeira, for 14 nights, disembarking in NJ. I have a foldable electric wheelchair because I cannot walk without chronic pain despite pain medication. The 12-night cruise was originally booked as a Holy Land Cruise. RCI didn’t give us the option to cancel or switch to another cruise, which I know they have the right to change the itinerary. It is what it is.
