1st time cruiser & disabled to boot!!

[FlyingCow]

Hi there; emailing from the UK and getting v. excited about my 1st cruise. I normally get around on a pair of crutches - though obviously not terribly far or fast.

 

My well travelled sister is under the impression that it is possible to hire small, motorised scooters in San Juan that can be used on board and then returned once we roll off the ship for home!!

 

1st - is she correct and if so where do I start to get one of these in place for my trip - it would make life easier all round and ensure I made it to dinner!! All hint, tips and word of wisdom gratefully received. Many thanks!!

Many people on the Disabled Board highly recomment this

company for renting equipment such as scooters, wheelchairs, etc.:

Suggest you check the posts on the Disabled Board for other

suggestions and tips.

 

Enjoy your cruise !
