We took this tour a few years ago on St. Thomas. They have an open air trolly and an air conditioned bus, both with wheelchair lifts. The tour is about 2.5 hours long. They made a few stops along the way. One stop is Mountain Top. They even put in a lift so wheelchairs can get to the observation deck. It was a very nice tour. We booked it on our own because Disney Cruise did not offer it. Also, shopping near the dock was very accessable. Hope this helps.

thank you for you reply i tried getting a hold of them by phone and e-mail but no gets back with me does anyone know any thing about the other ports

 

I see what you mean about trying to get in touch with them. I tried to submit a request for info on their site and the link doesn't work. I tried calling them and got voice mail. I'm hoping for a call back. Does anyone know if they are still in business?

I am a paraplegic using a manual wheelchair, and from what I can recall the ships dock right downtown in Aruba and just along a short road/walk way (and a level bridge) from downtown in Caracau, so once you are off the ship you should be able to explore quite freely in these two ports.

We just took this tour through Celebrity Constellation in November. It was a lot of fun! It was $55.00 per person, Sylvester was our driver and he was VERY nice! Nancie
