From a few years back when I was checking into this for my folks:

lists destination-specific, handicapped-friendly guidebooks, travel agents and tour operatiors

www.access-able.com, search by country to find handicapped-accessible hotels, modes of transport, and local attractions . Also links to newsletters, mags, and orgs.

It's a river cruise so no ocean movement. Should be ok.

We are going on a Viking River Cruise with my elderly parents. I noticed they have a Yangtze River cruise.

We picked this because it's easier on my dad, who has mobility issues (not a wheelchair or anything, just can't walk too far). You can take tours during the day but you don't have to. The boat seems to be very oriented towards older people, and the agent told me the average age is around 50 with plenty of older people.

So maybe look into that?

I'm trying to see if I can take my elderly parents (70-85) on travel. Are there any travel for seniors that accommodate to handicapped? We're looking to travel to Asia. How about bringing an oxygen tank? Is that just impossible? I want to take them on their last trip oversea.
