With my kids it was never a problem to just let them sleep wherever we happened to be sitting (restaurant chairs, museum benches, bus seats, a patch of grass, my lap, ...). Occasionally I was stuck carrying a sleeping kid around for a while, but that was also typically fine. A stroller might be mildly more convenient on rare occasions, but it was never a big deal, and the kids becoming self-sufficient much earlier and more completely (with respect to mobility) than most of their peers was more than worth any trouble. YMMV.
One thing I've noticed, they don't walk very well while taking a nap. And you just get so much more out of a day when you don't have to return home in the middle.
