Don’t miss this tour!
Our guide, Mark, gave us a great overview of Philadelphia in a vehicle that gave us unique views. He was fun and knowledgeable. He shared the history of the city’s founding, growth and sense of community. And, of course, about the mark that Ben Franklin had on the city and country. Highly recommend this tour.

Wonderful day trip to Lancaster
It was my highlight of coming to Philly. Actually it is the only reason I came to Philly is to go to Amish country. This is completely worth it! Jason was amazing super fun, super lively, very engaging person explained so much answered all of our questions catered the experience for us! There are a lot of foodies in the group so he definitely catered to that. Learned so much about the Amish people. And had a wonderful time. I would highly recommend this tour to anybody that wants to visit Lancaster.

Owen was an absolutely...
Owen was an absolutely fantastic tour guide. The food stops were great, portions were surprisingly larger than other food tours my wife and I had been on, and the extra stops were extremely informative and enjoyable. Owen had a great energy and enthusiasm and we really appreciated his knowledge of the city. One of the best food tours we had taken. Thanks Owen for a memorable time!

Not your grandma’s tour
My family and I take a ghost/dark history tour everywhere we travel and our tour with Ted was my favorite so far! He is tremendously knowledgeable and passionate about history in a way that’s contagious. You can’t help but be just as excited and eager for the next stop. Ted was full of fascinating anecdotes and stories you’d never hear on another tour and delivers a ton of history in a way that was never dull or overwhelming.
I’d say the only thing to note is that Ted does use a lot of swear words so if you’re sensitive to that, maybe not your thing. And is it a longer tour with several stops (though Ted has thoughtfully planned spots where people can have a seat), so just be ready to get a few steps in on the funnest, funniest, most informative tour I’ve been on!

Heck yes Trolley tour!
We loved the smaller size of the tour, the perfect balance of stops and driving, the awesome tour guide and driver and the length of the tour. We even had a quick bio break for those imbibing! We covered the perfect amount of distance and history for a day trip to Philly. Highly recommend!

This was an amazing tour. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and very funny. I can’t remember his name, but he was amazing. Gave different recommendations to food and drinks and answered questions. I would definitely recommend this tour. I will so impressed. I’m going to schedule a daytime tour.

Fab food and history
Jacqui’s tour was terrific. We went to all of the important local shops while she gave us a deep dive into the history of the area. But the most important thing was how accommodating she was. We were about a half an hour late due to traffic and she made up the time and took care of us so that we didn’t miss anything on the tour. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to know a little bit more about Philadelphia and the Italian food market area.

Great tour!
This activity takes you through the old part of Philadelphia when the three branches of government were headquartered here for roughly ten years in the late 1700s. Our guide, Jerry, is a history teacher during the week and was extremely knowledgeable and answered all questions. Everything was as advertised. It is a walking tour so definitely be ready to walk.

Don't miss this one on your visit to Philly!
Exceeded our expectations. The exhibit demonstrated the impact of the Revolution on the colonies and the rest of the world, as well the impact on Native Americans and black people who worked for a good resolution for their cause. Bipartisan and realistic. Excellent layout of each topic.
