Q&A

Q: How long does the walking tour take? Are there any age restrictions?

A: The walking tour typically takes around 2-3 hours, depending on the pace and how often you stop to take pictures. There aren't any strict age restrictions, so it's great for families! Just keep in mind that some areas might not be stroller-friendly, so younger kids might need help.

Q: What should I wear for the walking tour? Is it casual or dressy?

A: Definitely go for casual and comfy! You'll be walking about 2.8 miles, so wear sneakers or comfortable shoes. Layering is a good idea too, since it can get a bit chilly near the river even in summer.

Q: Can I reschedule if plans change? How flexible is it?

A: Yes, you can definitely reschedule! Just check with the tour provider at least 48 hours in advance, and they should be able to work with you on new dates. Super flexible, which is great for gift planning!

The views were amazing, especially from the observation tower! Highly recommend it for anyone looking to explore Sioux Falls. It was about 2 hours long, perfect length!
