Make sure you tell us which currency you want to pay in - we also take other major currencies eg Aussie and Canadian dollars, yen. If you turn up on the walk day with more people than originally agreed, no problem, but we will charge you a supplement per extra person on top of the total fixed price (you can walk out what that will be using this calculator). If you turn up with less, the total fixed price will generally not be discounted. Please try to talk to us in advance if this is going to happen to avoid us having to attempt difficult mental arithmetic in public.
