    Asked on October 13th, 2024

    May persons with walkers go on these cruises?

    Accommodation
    Tour Details
    • CroisiEurope River CruisesOperator•Written October 2024

      We try to be as accommodating as possible to allow all of our travellers the opportunity to join this cruise. Regarding having a walker on board, we will need to know the dimensions to check if it will fit in the corridors and doors. Likewise, are you able to use the stairs? The reason being that some ships don't have elevator, and the sun deck is always only accessible through stairs. Also, some shore excursions might be limited, as you need to be able to hop on a coach and walking is required.
