Philadelphia - Eyes of Dushon
What an extraordinary way to see the whole downtown of Philadelphia and its historical sites thru the eyes of a local person who really knows his hometown--Philadelphia. Dushon was an excellent host and tour guide for our 2-hour tour of Philadelphia. SUPER JOB!!!!!
I took so many photos that I put me in every spot so easily. My most favorite photo is the one of the Liberty Bell inside its building.
Have already recommended this tour to friends who might head to Philadelphia sometime for a closeup view of the town.

The most amazing experience walking through the city
We had Daniel and he was so knowledgeable even a little funny probably one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had. He suggested a place to have a Philly steak sandwich at and we went there immediately after and it was the best Philly steak I’ve ever had.They will have a great experience, but make sure they bring good walking shoes. Sidewalk a little uneven.

You Don't Want to Miss This Experience
Do not miss this incredible experience, especially as our country celebrates its 250th birthday!
This exhibit is very well-done and historically shows what the colonies went through before, during, and after the American Revolution.
Do not miss this if you're in NOLA!

Great Food, Fascinating Philly History, and a Terrific Guide
Adam was a terrific guide and made the Flavors of Philly Food Tour so much more than just a food tour. He was charming, knowledgeable, and engaging, and I especially enjoyed all the Philly history and practical local knowledge he shared along the way. He explained the layout of the city, including why there’s no First Street (it’s Front Street), how Broad Street fits into the grid, and the story of the supposed “curse” on Philadelphia sports teams after the city began building skyscrapers taller than William Penn atop City Hall. He also shared interesting history about Independence Hall and its restoration.
The food was a fun sampling of Philly favorites, including tomato pie, cheese fries, pretzels, a doughnut, and a chocolate chip cookie. Just as importantly, Adam never made the tour feel rushed. He gave us plenty of time at each stop, kept everyone comfortable, and even provided bottles of water. He struck a great balance between food, history, humor, and useful information about the city. Adam was a wonderful ambassador for Philadelphia, and I would highly recommend taking this tour with him.

Lots of walking, not many...
Guide was knowledgeable and stories were interesting. The tour did a great job of hitting most sought after historical sites. Must walk beyond end point to catch ride share. Starting point and ending point, not the same. Lots of walking, not many places to sit – but definitely worth it. Would do a tour through them again!

Do this tour!
Highly recommend going on a BYOB comedic tour of Philly!
The tour guide was the best!! And after people on the street were cheering at us he said “Philly gets a bad reputation but we truly love our city and we want others to as well” and that’s the feeling he gave as well. And it’s just a fun tour! Would say beware of from being kids but even then it will still be fun. We had a great group!

great introduction into...
great introduction into the historical places in the city. perfect for first time visitors to get an idea of where they may want to explore further. it would be nice for the tour guide to maybe have a speaker or whisper devices, street traffic can get a little loud.

Great experience - highly recommend!
Alma was a wonderful tour guide. She grew up in the neighborhood and her family owns many of the businesses, so she knows everyone and knows the history of the market very well. Plus she is super personable. Note: The name of the tour seems to be "Chef-led tour" - ALma isn't a chef but I believe another tour guide is a chef.

Back seats no roof
My sister and I had an amazing time!!! Walter was our driver and got us through the tour safe and sound. No harsh stopping, no jumped curbs and gave ample time to look at everything. Sam was our tour guide and we absolutely loved her! Extremely knowledgeable, funny and down to earth. My sister and I will be back.

The Amish Village in Lancaster was a truly unique and enlightening destination that far exceeded my expectations. Marty, our exceptional tour guide, provided a captivating narrative, replete with meticulous details. Marty's courtesy and accommodation of my requests were outstanding. His warm and engaging personality made me feel at ease, much like interacting with a friend. Ultimately, the Amish Village is an indispensable destination in Lancaster County, offering a rich tapestry of history, culture, and local flavors that cannot be rushed. I would definitely recommend this tour my friends!
