Parcourir le Canal Rideau était très agréable, le personnel nous a fournit Des informations pertinentes

Vélo en toute autonomie

Janie_M, Aug 2021

Nous nous attendions à avoir des trajets sur une carte, des cadenas et des casques pour nos vélos et nous n’avons rien eu. Nous sommes arrivés après de grandes recherches pour trouver l’endroit, les deux employés ont sortie deux vélos ordinaires (avons demandé électrique) et rien d’autre. Quand j’ai demandé pour la carte, ils ne savaient pas de quoi je parlais ainsi que les cadenas. Ils m’ont toutefois offert un casque. Nous avons donc longé le canal rideau et à l’aide de Google map nous nous sommes fait un itinéraire. Pour L’activité audio guidée on repassera! Vélo de bonne qualité et entretenu.

Response from Host, Aug 2021

Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié vos nouveaux vélos de sentier Liv Alight 3. On vous a offert un vélo Momentum E de 3 000 $ (qui a été réservé par votre fille), mais vous avez refusé de payer les frais supplémentaires de 25 $. Nous sommes heureux que vous ayez reçu des casques mais ne comprenons pas pourquoi vous n'avez pas eu de cadenas ou de carte comme les autres clients que nous servions en même temps. S'il vous plait nous demandé la prochaine fois où se trouve nos boulangeries/cafés préfèrés.
