Excursions with stroller

[tizbo1423]

Hi all- I'll be on the Encore this Sunday with stops in DR, St Thomas, Tortola and Great Stirrup Cay with my little one and will be bringing a small travel stroller to get around with her. 

We've traveled with our little one and a small stroller before and had no issues, but didn't do any official excursions so we didn't have to worry about transportation. This time around we're traveling with a larger group and booked through NCL for the convenience (mostly just transfers to a beach), and I'm wondering if they'll allow us to bring our stroller along. We're also on planning on getting to Trunk Bay on our own and hoping we can take the stroller in the taxis there. It's a small umbrella style stroller, so I'm hoping it's not an issue but has anyone traveled with a stroller before and run into any issues?

I've used an umbrella-type stroller with a 2 year-old and it was no problem on or off of the ship.

I've recently observed strollers, walkers and wheelchairs on ship excursions.

Typically, you're traveling in a large motor coach with nice, big cargo bays under the seats.

Any excursion I have ever taken in St Thomas on any cruise line  has had transportation in bench seat - open air seating - chain across the end of the rows trucks.

 

You will need to balance your child on your lap and keep hold of all your possessions.
