Mobility equipment hire in Paris (France)
Frequently Asked Questions – Hire a Wheelchair or Mobility Scooter in Paris
If you're planning to hire mobility equipment in Paris, here are the most common questions from other travellers with reduced mobility. All deliveries are done by our team, directly to your accommodation or arrival point.
1. Is Paris accessible for people with reduced mobility?
Paris has improved a great deal in terms of accessibility. Many museums, monuments and public areas are adapted, but some historic neighbourhoods like Montmartre or the Latin Quarter may be difficult due to cobblestones or steps. Hiring a wheelchair or mobility scooter helps visitors move around the city comfortably and safely.
2. What do I need to hire mobility equipment in Paris?
You just need to choose your hire dates and tell us where to deliver and collect the equipment. We don't require any medical certificate or proof of residency. Our team is always available to help you choose the best model depending on your needs and itinerary.
3. Can I visit the main attractions in Paris with a mobility device?
Yes. Our scooters and wheelchairs are ideal for visiting the main tourist spots in Paris:
- Eiffel Tower: Accessible up to the second floor by lift.
- Louvre Museum: Fully accessible with ramps and lifts.
- Notre-Dame Cathedral: Ground-level access is available, but towers are not accessible.
- Arc de Triomphe: The terrace has limited access, but the surrounding plaza is accessible.
- Palace of Versailles: Accessibility support, adapted shuttles and free wheelchairs are available.
4. Where do you deliver the mobility equipment?
We deliver to a wide range of locations in and around Paris:
- Hotels: We can leave the equipment at the reception desk. We recommend informing the hotel in advance to avoid confusion or rejection.
