River cruise with a rollator?

[kbert92069]

My wife needs a rollator for stability and we are interested in a river cruise in the south of France.  River cruises typically include shore excursions so those are built into the cost. I would love to hear anyone's experience with rollators on river cruises and even better if specific to the Rhone river.

Thanks,

Karl

Just a caution...on most river cruises the ships line up (raft up) to 6 ships abreast at the dock. You must climb up and down stairs to reach the shore, and if you on the outside of 5 other ships, you may have to do that over 5 ships to get on/off at the port. In addition, there may be stairs on the shore to get to street level.  Can your wife do those stairs?

 

Using a Rollator around the ship will not be problematic as long as you have a cabin on a deck that has elevator access. Some river ships have only stair access to the top and bottom-most decks.
