What are people saying about Philadelphia

Karen_C, Aug 2026

You will love this tour!

This tour was very informative and so enjoyable thanks to our guide, Brittni. She shared some little-known facts that really enhanced our experience, and despite the extremely hot temperatures she was super pleasant, patient, and a lot of fun. All of the food items we sampled were excellent, and starting the tour with a warm buttered pretzel from Miller's Twist was amazing! I greatly appreciate that Brittani made some accommodations with the food items because I am a vegetarian. Loved the root beer at McGilin's, and we had a fabulous time at the Reading Terminal Market. Everything was outstanding, and we couldn't have had a more enthusiastic and good-natured guide. Thank you, Brittani, for making our experience extra special!

Philadelphia Old City Historic Walking Tour with 10+ Top Sites

Karen_C, Aug 2026

Must-Do Activity While in Philadelphia

It is a great way to get acquainted with many of the historic sites in the city. Considerable amount of walking, but well worth it. Our guide, John, was incredibly knowledgeable- you could tell that this was more than just a job to him. He shared interesting information (and some little-known facts), which made the tour so enjoyable.

Dark Philly Adult Night Tour

Theresa_P, Aug 2026

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!

BYOB Historically Hilarious Trolley Tour of Philadelphia

Erica_D, Aug 2026

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!

Jenna was fantastic; fun and informative tour

Jenna jumped in at the last minute to cover for a fellow employee, and we could not have been happier! She offers a combination of historical and personal twists to the ghost tour, made it fun, and was incredibly personable. She also helped us address a couple of additional late ads to our tour, which unfortunately caused a little bit of misunderstanding at the beginning of the tour, delaying us, but she was patient and helped us to work things out on the spot so that we could get on with our tour. Really appreciate the amazing tour and her flexibility. Highly recommend- thank you Jenna!

Very worth while

That it is a wonderful overview of Philadelphia, especially if you’re in the city for one night. Also, if we were here longer we would definitely know places to spend more time. We missed our 6:00 pm tour and was grateful they called to tell us about the 8 pm tour!! The bus driver and narrator were excellent.
