Quick Jump To: Official Rentals / Bringing Your Own vs. Renting / External Stroller Rental / External Wheelchair & Mobility Scooter Rentals
Visiting Disneyland Paris - which comprises the two theme parks Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios Park - can involve a lot of walking across its expansive grounds (the resort covers over 20 km²). If you're travelling with young children or have mobility needs, renting a pushchair (stroller) or wheelchair can make your visit much more comfortable. This guide explains how to rent strollers and wheelchairs inside the Disneyland Paris parks and explores external rental options available in the area (in British English, we'll use "pushchair" for stroller).
Official Pushchair (Stroller) Rentals in the Disney Parks
Both Disneyland Paris parks have official pushchair rental stations just inside their gates. In Disneyland Park, the Stroller/Pushchair & Wheelchair Rental shop is at Town Square Terrace (to the right as you pass under the Main Street, U.S.A. station). In Walt Disney Studios Park, rentals are available at Studio Services near the entrance. Rentals are first-come, first-served - you cannot reserve in advance - so plan to stop by early. Pushchair hire is popular and morning queues can be long; try arriving right at park opening or a bit later after the initial rush to avoid waiting too long.
Cost and Deposit: As of 2024, the daily hire fee for a Disneyland Paris pushchair is around €30 per day, and you will be asked to leave a refundable security deposit when renting. (The deposit is returned to you when you bring the stroller back and show your receipt.) The deposit amount is significant - sources report it can be up to around €200 - as it allows you to take the pushchair outside the park gates if needed. Be sure to keep the rental receipt safe, since you'll need it to collect your deposit refund and to rent a replacement stroller at the other park if you "park hop".
Equipment Details: Note that Disneyland Paris only rents single pushchairs, not doubles. The buggies are functional but basic - often compared to a simple hard plastic or metal frame cart with no recline and no rain cover. They are sturdy and fairly roomy (suitable even for older toddlers or children who may have outgrown a small buggy at home), but not ideal for infants who need a fully reclining seat for naps. If your child will spend a lot of time in the stroller, be aware these aren't the most comfortable models (little padding and rigid wheels). On busy days the supply isn't unlimited, so if you have a comfortable pushchair of your own, it may be worth bringing it to ensure your little one's comfort.
Using the Rental: Once rented, the pushchair is yours to use for the day inside the parks - you can take it between Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios Park, or even back to your Disney hotel, as long as you've paid the deposit. In fact, you can pre-pay for multiple days upfront and keep the same pushchair for your whole stay, which saves you from returning it each day. This is convenient if you plan midday breaks or multi-day visits, as you won't need to queue again for a new stroller each morning. Make sure you hang on to your paperwork/receipt if keeping the stroller for multiple days or swapping parks.
Park Rules and Tips: You're required to park your pushchair outside all attractions and shows for safety, so never leave valuables in it while you ride. The stroller remains your responsibility if left unattended. To avoid mix-ups (the Disney rentals all look alike), consider tying a ribbon or tag to the handle, or drape a personal item like a jacket over it to make it easily identifiable. Cast Members occasionally need to reorganise parked buggies, so don't be alarmed if it's been moved slightly. If you're worried about someone mistakenly walking off with your rental, you can use a lightweight pushchair lock on a wheel (just to prevent it rolling) - however, do not lock it to a fixed object like a fence, as Cast Members must be able to move it if needed. Finally, note that the rentals do not include rain covers or other accessories, so if rain is forecast you might want to bring a pram rain cover or poncho. On the positive side, the Disney pushchairs are quite robust and can handle the park's paved terrain, and their size is generous for bigger kids who might get tired.
Official Wheelchair Rentals in the Parks
Manual wheelchairs are available for hire at the same rental locations at each park entrance (the pushchair rental stations also handle wheelchairs). The rental fee is roughly €25 per day, and a refundable deposit is required similar to the strollers. (A recent update noted the wheelchair deposit around €200 as well, which you receive back upon return). You cannot reserve wheelchairs in advance, but generally Disneyland Paris has a decent supply for guests. As with strollers, you can take a rented wheelchair out of the park gates and between parks or hotels once you've paid the deposit, and you may keep it for multiple days if you pay for the length of your stay up front.
Disneyland Paris only provides manual wheelchairs - there are no electric ECVs or mobility scooters available to rent on-site. The manual chairs are standard issue; you may request a larger size if needed (they have a limited number of different models for various needs). Keep in mind that Cast Members cannot push you in the wheelchair or provide personal attendant service. This means the wheelchair rental is ideal for guests who have an able companion to push or who can self-propel for most of the day. It's a great option if, for example, an able-bodied person has a temporary injury or an elderly family member needs a bit of help getting around the parks for a long day. But for guests who require full-time mobility assistance or a motorised scooter, you'll need to look at external rental options (more on that below).
The hired wheelchair can go anywhere a guest can normally go in the parks. Disneyland Paris is generally quite accessible - there are ramps or alternative entrances for most attractions. If you rent a wheelchair and have a disability ID or doctor's note, you may also inquire at City Hall or Studio Services about a disability access card, which can provide accommodations for attractions. Even without that, many rides have special procedures for boarding with wheelchairs (check the park's Accessibility Guide). Similar to strollers, wheelchairs must be left outside certain attractions (especially where the queue cannot accommodate wheels), but many queues are wheelchair-accessible up to a point. Follow Cast Member instructions on where to park or when to transfer. You can keep the wheelchair with you when moving between the two parks or to Disney Village and the on-site hotels, provided you've left the required deposit for out-of-park use. And if you're using it across multiple days, hang on to the receipt and simply retain the chair overnight (Disney hotels will allow you to take it to your room). Remember to return the wheelchair to a rental location by the end of your final day to get your deposit back.
Bringing Your Own vs. Renting
Bringing your own pushchair or wheelchair is certainly an option and, in many cases, the most comfortable solution. Many families visiting from the UK choose to travel with their personal pushchair so that their child can rest in a familiar, comfy seat. If you have space in the car boot or don't mind gate-checking a stroller on a flight, it can save you the €30/day fee and ensure you have a pram with the features you like (recline, sunshade, etc.). Disneyland Paris allows personal strollers inside the parks as long as they are not larger than 92 cm x 132 cm, which accommodates most standard and double pushchairs. (Double prams are permitted if they fit within those dimensions - unlike some other Disney parks worldwide, Disneyland Paris currently even allows small wagons under that size, though a traditional pushchair is easier to manage.) Always label your own buggy too; a brightly coloured tag or ribbon helps distinguish it in the sea of parked prams.
For wheelchair users, if you have your own manual wheelchair or an electric mobility scooter, you are welcome to bring it to Disneyland Paris. The resort's rules permit mobility devices for guests with reduced mobility, including electric scooters, as long as they are recognized medical mobility aids with at least three wheels for stability. In practice, many visitors use personal mobility scooters or power wheelchairs in the parks - just keep your speed to walking pace (Disney recommends max 6 km/h, and at busy times you'll be moving slowly anyway). If using a personal ECV (Electric Convenience Vehicle), it's wise to carry any proof of disability or a doctor's note just in case security has questions, though typically standard mobility scooters and wheelchairs won't be challenged. Bringing your own means you'll have it not only in the parks but also for getting around the resort hotels or even wider Paris, and you won't have to worry about rental return times.
The same advice applies about not leaving valuables unattended in your pushchair and marking it clearly. If you bring a high-end pram, consider a lightweight cable lock for peace of mind when parked - loop it through the wheels so it can't roll (again, do not lock a stroller to a fixture). Most importantly, plan for the journey - if coming by plane or Eurostar, check their stroller policy (usually you can keep it until boarding). For wheelchairs and scooters, ensure your hotel can store or charge them; all Disney hotels and partner hotels near the parks are accommodating with this. You might need to request a ground-floor room or one near a lift if using a mobility scooter, for convenience. Lastly, remember that pushing a stroller or self-propelling a wheelchair all day can be tiring. Even if you bring your own, you might utilize the rental service as a backup (for example, if your toddler's buggy gets damaged in transit, or if an elderly guest only needs a chair occasionally). It's good to know all your options.
External Stroller Rental Services near Disneyland Paris
If you prefer not to travel with a pushchair, or you need a type of stroller that Disney doesn't offer (such as a double stroller or a pram suitable for an infant), there are several private companies that serve the Disneyland Paris area. These companies rent out baby equipment - including strollers/pushchairs - to tourists and can often deliver right to your hotel. Using an external rental can be more economical for longer visits and often provides a higher-quality stroller (with more comfort features) than the basic park rentals.
Here are a few external pushchair rental options to consider:
- Baby'tems - A Paris-based baby equipment hire company that makes travelling with little ones easier. You can reserve items like strollers, travel cots, high chairs, etc., and Baby'tems will deliver the equipment to your accommodation anywhere in Paris or the wider Île-de-France region (which includes the Disneyland Paris area). They offer a range of pushchair models (lightweight, full-featured, etc.) so you can choose one that suits your child's needs. This way, you can have a pram waiting at your hotel when you arrive, use it for your entire trip, and then have it picked up when you're done - no need to haul your own through the airport.
- Familib - Familib is a French service with a network of pick-up points and partnerships for baby gear rentals. They specifically advertise pushchair hire for Disneyland trips. In fact, Familib invites visitors to "hire a pram from Familib and make the most of the theme park with your children". The idea is that you can travel light and collect a quality pushchair near Disneyland or in Paris. Check their website for how it works - typically you reserve online and choose a convenient collection point (for example, some partner shops or even certain hotel concierges in Paris act as pick-up spots). Familib's strollers are vetted for safety and comfort, and they have various models (including all-terrain buggies and compact foldable ones). This could be a good solution if you're spending time in Paris city before or after Disneyland, as you might collect the stroller in the city and use it for the whole holiday.
- Babonbo - An online marketplace that connects travelling parents with local suppliers of baby equipment. Babonbo allows you to rent premium pushchairs and prams in Paris with just a few clicks, and have them delivered to your hotel or Airbnb. They boast a wide selection (from single city strollers to double prams and even wagons) and emphasize that all gear is clean, safe, and delivered by local partners. For example, you could rent a high-end buggy with full recline for your infant, which might be much more comfortable for naps than the park's rental strollers. Babonbo's service covers central Paris and delivers to hotels, vacation rentals, and even airports in the region - so you could potentially arrange delivery directly to your Disneyland-area hotel in Marne-la-Vallée. This saves you the hassle of bringing a pram from home while still ensuring your child has a cozy ride.
Aside from these, there are other services like Cloud of Goods and local baby gear rental agencies that operate in Paris - but the ones above have specific experience with Disneyland Paris visitors.
Before choosing an external rental, compare prices and read reviews to ensure reliability. Typically, you'll pay a daily or weekly rate and possibly a delivery fee. It's wise to book in advance, especially for peak season, to guarantee availability of the model you want. Also clarify the delivery/pick-up logistics: many companies will drop the stroller at your hotel's concierge or reception before you arrive and collect it after you depart, making it very convenient. When using an external stroller in the Disney parks, the same park rules apply (size limits, no obstructing aisles, etc.), but external strollers are absolutely allowed - you'll see many in the parks since lots of visitors bring their own or rent outside.
External Wheelchair and Mobility Scooter Rentals
Disneyland Paris does not rent out electric mobility scooters (ECVs) or powered wheelchairs, but thankfully there are external providers that cater to guests who need motorised mobility assistance or a wheelchair for an extended period. If pushing a manual wheelchair all day is not feasible or you require a scooter to get around comfortably, you can arrange to rent mobility equipment from companies in the area. These firms often work with Disney visitors and will deliver the scooter or wheelchair directly to your hotel and pick it up when you're done. Here are a few notable providers:
- Axsol Rent - Axsol is a French company specializing in mobility solutions, and they explicitly partner with travel initiatives for Disneyland Paris. They offer a range of equipment for hire, including standard wheelchairs, electric wheelchairs, and mobility scooters of various sizes. Axsol notes that Disneyland Paris is a huge resort and that they provide tailored mobility rentals for an "extraordinary stay" at Disney. Through them, you could rent a mobility scooter (sometimes called an ECV) for your entire trip. They supply chargers and even small ramps to help navigate curbs, etc., and can accommodate higher weight capacities with their models. Many users praise their customer service and the convenience of having a scooter ready to go at the hotel.
- MobilityScooter.fr - A local Paris-based service focused on mobility scooter rentals for tourists. They explicitly mention serving "Paris & Disneyland Paris" and will deliver scooters to the Disneyland Paris area. MobilityScooter.fr provides different types of scooters (lightweight foldable ones that can go in a car, mid-size scooters, etc.) depending on your needs. They make it simple to book online or get a quote, and they'll arrange drop-off at your location. This could be a good option if you want something easy to take apart and transport (for example, if you plan to do some sightseeing in Paris city as well, a collapsible scooter might be ideal). Delivery and pick-up can usually be coordinated with your hotel concierge.
- Motion4Rent - A well-established mobility rental provider in Europe, Motion4Rent has coverage in the Disneyland Paris area and often works in tandem with Axsol. You can book a mobility scooter or wheelchair through their website for Disneyland Paris specifically. They highlight a fast, reliable service with delivery to Disneyland hotels and nearby accommodations. For instance, they will drop the scooter at your Disney hotel's bell desk or even meet you in person to hand it over, and retrieve it when you're finished. Motion4Rent's FAQ reassures that their scooters and wheelchairs are permitted throughout Disneyland Paris - you can use them in the parks, restaurants, shops, and even in queue lines where applicable. This is an important point: privately rented mobility devices are allowed inside the Disney parks (they are treated as personal mobility aids), so you won't face restrictions using an external scooter on Disney property. Just be sure to drive carefully and follow any guidance from staff, especially when boarding attractions (some rides will ask you to transfer from an ECV to a manual wheelchair for safety).
Other companies and resources include Overt Medical (often mentioned in Disney forums for scooter hire with hotel delivery) and global rental agencies like Mobility Equipment Hire Direct, which can arrange scooter rentals in Disneyland Paris as well. It's a good idea to compare pricing: some companies charge a flat rate for the length of stay (e.g. a 3-day hire package) while others charge per day plus a delivery fee. As a ballpark, renting an electric scooter for a few days might cost on the order of a couple hundred euros total - which, for many, is worth the independence it provides.
Tips for external mobility rentals: Reserve your scooter or wheelchair as early as possible, especially if traveling in summer or during school holidays, because supplies are limited. Communicate your hotel details clearly for delivery. When the scooter is delivered, you'll get instructions on use - most are simple to operate (typically max speed ~6 km/h) and come with a charger. Disney hotels will help with overnight charging if needed (many guests charge the scooter in their room or a baggage area overnight). If staying off-site, ensure your accommodation can accommodate the scooter (e.g. lifts/elevators, a place to charge). During your park days, you might want to bring a small bicycle lock to secure the scooter when you're not using it, though incidents of theft are rare and mobility devices are generally safe at Disney. And don't forget to enjoy the freedom - having a mobility scooter can dramatically improve the experience for guests who find long-distance walking painful or impossible, allowing you to focus on the fun instead of the physical strain.
Whether you opt for a Disney park rental or arrange an external hire, having a stroller or wheelchair readily available can be a game-changer at Disneyland Paris. It ensures that toddlers can nap on the go and seniors or those with injuries can keep up with the group as you explore the parks' magical lands. The key is to plan ahead: if using Disney's rentals, know the procedure and limitations, and if using external services, book in advance and confirm all details before your trip. Also, factor in the weather and length of stay - for example, on a rainy winter day you might need extra stroller rain protection, whereas in summer you'll want a sunshade.
By taking advantage of these rental services (either on-site or from the many convenient local companies around Disneyland Paris), you'll be able to travel lighter and enjoy the parks more fully. No one wants a tired toddler meltdown halfway down Main Street or to cut the day short because grandma's feet hurt - a pushchair or mobility scooter can save the day! Most importantly, you'll have the freedom to make the most of every moment in the parks. So plan your rental, pack any essentials (don't forget that favourite blanket or cushion for added comfort), and get ready to create magical memories at Disneyland Paris with comfort and ease.
