Things to do & see near the dock

[DisneyKidsDad]

My family and I will be on an RCCL cruise this spring stopping in Barbados. My daughter is a full time wheelchair user. RCCL doesn't offer any accessible excursions. Is there much to do and see right around the dock? Or does anyone know of any accessible transportation on the island?

There is some shopping at the port. Other wise, there should be some transportationfor a wheel chair. You could try some private companies? Sorry I'm not much help.

We were in Barbados last year in February. The "port" is in a ship container port. Our Princess ship was one of the furthest ones out so we had to take a "bus" to the little place where the shops were. The shops were kind of high end stores with a few locals in the very back and one restaurant/bar also in the back. The taxis are kept outside of this area and can be reached by walking to the gate and getting one. They are not allowed inside the area of the cruiseport. I would do an internet search for Barbados tours and email a bunch of the people and ask for a tour around and see if any of the vans are handicap accessible.... there is nothing itself there in port...that is just my opinion....:)

Good luck :cool:
