Palace Tours would rather talk a traveller out of this train than watch them struggle on it. That policy has earned us guests for life, so here is the mobility picture with no varnish.
The physical facts
Boarding means climbing steps from the platform — several, and sometimes steep. Corridors are heritage-width, cabins have no adapted bathrooms, and there is no lift or ramp anywhere on the train. If stairs with a handrail are routine for you, the train itself will pose no problem.
The excursions
Most visits involve a kilometre or three of unhurried walking, but the ground is medieval more often than modern: cobbles, slopes, harbour steps. Guests who tire can usually wait comfortably with the coach or in a café — the crew handle this kindly and without fuss, every single week.
What to do before booking
Tell us plainly what walking looks like for you, and we will map it against each day of the route before you commit — then lodge every detail with the operator's crew. That pre-departure honesty is exactly the service an authorized source owes you.
The blunt summary: wheelchairs and this train do not mix; steady walkers who pace themselves love it. Undecided? Call us — or read the FAQ first.
