[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does your MIL say about these ideas? I'd let her wants - and her sense of what she can do - guide the planning.

My mom has limited mobility in her early 80s and touring around would be just impossible now. She and my dad take a lot of cruises - including river cruises - but she rarely leaves the ship. It's just too hard for her. So some of this will also depend on how limited your MIL is. If she can walk, but slowly, then I think a casual, laid back trip to Italy would be fine; if she really can't walk much, and doesn't use a chair, then this seems like a recipe for frustration.

And how much do your wants and needs count here? Do you care if this is a trip you enjoy, too, or is the point really just to help your MIL have a good time?

You are really good for considering this, OP. [/quote]

^ Me again and super duper procrastinating..,

Just found this website of wheelchair accessible tours of Italy - this could help, if your MIL does use a chair (or is willing to use one): https://disabledaccessibletravel.com/accessible-destinations/italy/[/quote]
