Creator's Key Takeaways

I sailed on the serenade the Seas the last week in October from Tampa it was the first time I'd cruise out of Tampa so that was a plus

I got out of my Uber and took two steps and sat down on the seat of my scooter it was right there on the sidewalk

it was 13 minutes folks that I mean that's impossible but that's what it took to get checked in and on the ship

my opinion of the accessibility of serenade of the Seas it was terrific

Please watch: "Alaska Solo Cruise" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-unjGmFyVc --~-- --~-- Serenade of the Seas Accessibility Report with Chillie Falls, the Accessibility Guy. I sailed on Royal Caribbean's Serenade of the Seas on October 25, 2022 from Tampa, Florida. It was a five night cruise with a port call in Cozumel, Mexico. Since Serenade of the Seas is a smaller, older ship, I did not have high expectations of its accessibility to mobility challenged folks like me, on up to the fully handicapped in wheelchairs. I use a scooter. Boy, was I shocked. From an accessibility standpoint, Serenade of the Seas was one of the best ships I have been on. A full detailed report is contained within, including two areas that were inaccessible. CLICK HERE for the written report with pictures that is posted on my blog: AccessAdventure.net.
