Great 2 hour golf cart tour in Philadelphia. Tate was an excellent tour guide & driver. . We learned so much & covered so much ground. We were able to go into smaller alleys to see some hidden & unique spots. Highly recommend this tour & with only 5 people it’s very personal.

This tour was very good. Pat, our driver/narrator was very friendly, knowledgeable and personable. She made sure we got all of the pictures we wanted, we got to see all the major sites and allowed one family to "run" up the Rocky steps. I would definitely recommend Pat as your narrator.

A bit confused tourist

Karla_K, Sep 2026
This tour was full of knowledge of the city of especially art. It was not what I expected we didn’t see or hear much American history. It felt like a Philly a commercial for Philly tourism

Great overall tour of Philly!

Usual tour

Lorrainenorth, Sep 2026
Dee Shaw was our tour guide. Very nice n kept using our names or asking us questions. I learn things I didn’t know beforehand. The places we went to was different. I found DeeShaw was saying his family or kids kind of hard to understand what was being explained. But other parts he was very interesting

This was the perfect way...

Vicki_B, Sep 2026
This was the perfect way to get to know Philly. Small number of people, engaging and passionate driver/host.

A tour I will remember.

Robert_H, Sep 2026
Mark puts a fun twist to this Philadelphia history tour. I use a cane and my walking ability is limited which is one reason I chose this tour. I highly recommend this experience if you need a refresher course in the early history of our United States and want it to be fun. Deborah Hancik

Very Enjoyable and Informative!

Our tour guide Mark was wonderful. We had a great time. High recommend if you would really like to know the city instead of just walking around the three blocks downtown.

Philadelphia - Eyes of Dushon

CATHERINE_S, Sep 2026
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.

Must Do Philly Tour

Amy_A, Sep 2026
Fantastic tour - we got to see so much of Philly! Our guide Tom knew so many history facts, sports facts, food facts - anything you would want to know about the city. Our vehicle was able to go down small alleys, we could get out at stops if we wanted to - you really should skip the bus tour and pay a little more to take this tour. I promise you won’t regret it - your feet will thank you too!

Fun for Locals

Great golf cart tour

Tammy_B, Aug 2026
Barry was amazing. He knew so much about Philadelphia. And he sincerely had a love for his town. He was fun, knowledgeable, and we love the golf cart tours. Also Viator had never let us down and we’ve travel all over the world. Not much walking if you have a family member that can’t walk a lot. We covered a lot in 2 hours.

Great 2 hours.

WilliamE_D, Aug 2026
Mark was a great tour guide. He knew his history and was charming. This was a very interesting two hours.

A Unique Way to Celebrate A Birthday, a Private Tour of the City Known for Brotherly Love! ❤️

Cecilia_S, Aug 2026
Jason our tour guide, was extremely knowledgeable! Besides the political history that Philly is known for, he showed us areas of Philly that we would have never known about. The architecture of the housing, and how Ben Franklin was part of that; the fantastic art work, especially the murals and mosaic village, the. Black history aspects of Philly that we asked to see and the controversy surrounding the changing of the signage concerning slavery and the fact that Jason knew about it, made us feel prideful! Seeing that we came from different areas of the country (NYC, Cleveland, Querryville, PA) made for a fantastic afternoon to spend learning about the historic aspects of Philadelphia as a Birthday celebration.

Electric car tour

James_B, Aug 2026
First off, don’t be woke. When inquiring who participated on this excursion with me, spouse is listed as “partner”. Add spouse for those of us that are traditional. This excursion was fun. Mark is informative and humorous.

Awesome

michelle_M, Aug 2026
Best tour ever. Great overview of the city for those of us here the first time. James was an awesome tour guide. Definitely recommend it!

Didn't make it on time for tour, but the tour guide was excellent and willing to wait a few extra minutes

HeatherL_P, Aug 2026
There was an accident on the highway that made me detour and added 25 minutes to my time. In Philadelphia I couldn't get to the left to turn on to race street, so that added another 8 minutes. I found my garage and pulled in but I was on the wrong side of the garage for my reservation. GPS said I was in the right place. So, I missed the adventure. The tour guide was excellent though. He called me several times and was willing to wait an extra 5 minutes. This was my first and will be my last time in Philadelphia
