It was a lot of fun. Andy is great. He was knowledgeable and answered all are questions. We would definitely do this again

Response from Host, Jun 2026

I'm not sure what tour you took but it was certainly not this tour as my name is Reid and we do not use a vintage car we walk

Different and FUN!

Jennie_C, May 2026
Reid was an excellent tour guide, making the information and tour fun, pertinent, as well as informative. He made sure that there were places to sit while we listened, and he passed the information to us in a way that was understandable. He also made sure to ensure our safety the entire time when crossing the street, as well as he made sure we stopped at places where we were covered from the rain, as we had a rainy day. we laughed along the way and learned so much that we did not know about Alexander Hamilton as well as the city of Philadelphia.

Response from Host, May 2026

I am so glad you guys enjoyed the tour AND learned new things. Rainy days are tough for tours but you were troopers!

Thank you

Marianne_D, May 2026
