Disneyland and Disabilities
Author: TravellingToday
Even if you are confined to a
wheelchair or on crutches, you can still enjoy Disneyland. If you are on
crutches, you should consider renting a Disneyland Scooter to get around the
park. A valid driver's license is required, and you must be eighteen years old
or older.
You can also choose to rent a
wheelchair, which is not electronic. The rental fee for a wheelchair is $8 per
day, with a $20 deposit. You do not have to rent your wheelchair or Scooter
from Disneyland. You can choose to rent the apparatus from a private company,
and have the wheelchair or scooter delivered to your hotel room. You may find
that it is cheaper to rent from a private company, as opposed to renting from
Disneyland.
All of the restaurants and shops
are wheelchair accessible, as are the entertainment areas. When it comes to
wheelchairs, your problem will be accessing some of the rides. For instance,
you will not be able to enjoy Donald's Boat, Sailing Ship, or Tarzan's Tree
house.
However, there are many
attractions that you can enjoy, such as The Disney Gallery, Disneyland
Monorail, the Disneyland Railroad, the Tiki Room, The Golden Horseshoe, It's A
Small World, Mark Twain Riverboat, and Tom Sawyer Island. Some attractions
will require you to be transferred from your wheelchair, such as Alice in
Wonderland, Indiana Jones, and the King Arthur Carrousel.
Cast members and service
personnel will be happy to help with Guest wheelchair transfers, and if you
should lose a wheelchair or scooter that you've rented from Disneyland, simply
show the ticket for the wheelchair or scooter, and Disneyland will happily
supply you with another one. However, if you lose a wheelchair or scooter that
was rented from an outside company, Disneyland will not be able to help you
replace it, and you may have to pay the rental company the full value of the
chair.
Whether you can enjoy a ride in
your wheelchair, or you must be transferred from your wheelchair to the ride,
you can actually enjoy most of the rides at Disneyland. Do not allow the fact
that you can't walk around the park keep you from planning a Disneyland
Vacation. Again, Disneyland was designed with everyone in mind!
