There are elevators that go down as close to the tender platforms as possible, and the crew does all it can to help people, but I think you must be able to walk enough to deal with some steps and actually getting onto/out of the tender itself.

We are 5-star, and the wait for priority tendering from the Rolling Stone Lounge was about 1 hour until 1 pm.  Not sure when they called open tendering.   We arrived in the lounge at 10:30 and our tender was called at 11:30.   Another 5 star went to the lounge at 12:45 PM and got a tender at 1:45 PM

Thank you. That is helpful. This is a portable wheelchair and the person can navigate some steps. Want to be able to use the wheelchair while in port.

How is tendering for someone in a wheelchair? How does one get from the ship to the tender?

Actually, tendering wasn’t so smooth for those that were not on an excursion! We got to the Ocean Bar to get a ticket and were number 15. They announced that tendering was delayed and by the time we got off the ship it was at least 2 hours later. Still had a great time in Sitka but my advice is to go straight to the Ocean Bar and get a tender ticket as soon as you can if you don’t have an excursion planned.
