sailaway04 #1 Posted November 5 Does anyone know if there are locals on the pier offering to push people in wheelchairs down the pier towards the shopping area? We sail royal and I remember from our last visit its a long walk for the mobility challenged. Thank you for any info! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tudlum #2 Posted November 5 (edited) When we were there in August they had folks peddling rickshaws. they accommodate 2 passengers. They are free but customary to tip the driver... We were on NCL so I would find out which Pier you will docking at. Have a great time Edited November 5 by Tudlum 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Booth44 #3 Posted November 6 We were in Cozumel last week and there were plenty of rickshaws. Not 100% sure about people willing to push wheelchairs, but I'd think your chances are very, very good. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
molsonschooner #4 Posted November 6 We were in Cozumel back in March. My wife had someone push her in a wheelchair back to the ship. I think someone pushed her both ways but I am not 100 % certain 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snit13 #5 Posted November 6 Did they charge to push your wife or did you just tip the person who pushed her? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will be in Cozumel in April 2020 and most likely will need a ride from ship to shore and shore to ship. Last time in Cozumel many years ago had a struggle to get back to ship due to the long, long walk back. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Essiesmom #7 Posted November 6 The rickshaw people work on tips only. They are at all of the piers in Cozumel. I don't remember seeing wheelchair pushers in Coz, although they were present in Costa Maya. EM 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dancingfish #12 Posted November 12 This is good to know. My husband does not require a wheelchair but can not walk long distances and I have been worried about getting him off the pier. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
