Vouchers – if you have a voucher for Square Peg Tours you are welcome to use it for this tour HOWEVER, it will be a buy one get one for this particular tour. Since the coupons were printed, changes were made to the initial Christmas tour listed on the voucher making them no longer valid so Square Peg Tours has made the decision to accept the vouchers but only as a BOGO for this tour. You can still use the complimentary voucher for any of Square Peg Tours walking tours in December by calling Kristen at 204-898-4678.

If you would like clarification on the BOGO voucher for the Christmas Tour, please call Kristen at 204-898-4678.
