Visiting Mont Saint Michel with a mobility scooter

[mexico8]

Not sure if I will get to see much of Mont Saint Michel on my scooter.   I think I will be able to see some of the shops but not much else.   Wonder if it's worth the hour or two by  bus or taxi from the ship to go there?  If anyone has done it I would appreciate knowing how they found it.

Are you planning on going to Mont Saint Michel on your own?   Here are some websites that discuss its accessibility, if you haven't already seen them.   John Sage https://www.sagetraveling.com/Normandy-Disabled-Access  says,  "Mont St. Michel has some of the poorest disabled access in Normandy. The former monastery island has numerous steps and steep streets throughout the city."

Can you break your scooter down so it will fit more easily in a vehicle/bus or is it a foldable scooter?    

 

Have you checked with your cruiseline to see if they are offering any accessible excursions?

Thank you so much for the information.  I think that it would be best for my husband and I to rent a car from St. Malo and drive to Mont St. Michel.   I can get to see it close up and go in a few shops and skip going up all the steps etc.   My scooter does fold down.
