Thank You!
Of course, we have the obligatory Liability Waiver and Release form that must be signed by each person in advance of joining the walk. Why a waiver for a walking tour, you ask? Couldn’t get insurance without it. Stroll pays insurance… you sign the waiver.
A sense of curiosity, a few questions and a willingness to learn something you didn’t know before.
Of course, dress for the weather; bring a hat, water bottle, umbrella, solid walking shoes (no flip flops!) and anything else you need to be comfortable on the walk.
We walk rain or shine or snow!
However, we do heed storm watches and warnings and would never put you in danger. Stroll may cancel and reschedule a walk due to an issued weather advisory.
We don’t make scheduled bathroom breaks along the walking route. Please attend to personal needs before or after the walking tour.
Yes. The walking tour guides have chosen routes with the best possible accessibility in order to accommodate as many people as possible. We do our best to re-route safely around unexpected construction – we can’t control everything! Even though we try.
If you have any questions about the accessibility this specific walk, please contact us in advance of booking.
We’ll say it again… Always arrive 10-15 minutes ahead of time! If you arrive exactly at departure time, you’re already late! If you arrive really late, your walking tour will have started without you. We start right on time to respect that people have things to do after the walking tour!
At the end of the walking tour, you’ll get a follow up email with a list of the places we visited on our walking tour, along with some links for newsletter Waterloo newsletters so you won’t miss all the cool things coming up.
