    Very fun and informative. Just note you will not have access to some of the venues like going inside the Betsy Ross house.

    Touring with Seamus was a lovely experience. He was knowledgeable and shared niche tidbits of info while we strolled around Old City. He managed to make us feel welcome all the while keeping us on a steady course. He's pretty funny and would be great for a group outing. He gave us some great food recommendations and pointed out some cute spots to grab drinks at later.

    Seamus arrived early and since others had cancelled due to rainy weather, we got started a bit early. He was entertaining, knowledgeable and matched our middle-age pace perfectly. Seamus also gave us some great local recommendations for the rest of our stay! Great price, great value, great guy. Can’t go wrong booking this walking tour.

    Seamus is a star! He’s incredibly knowledgable about the city and its history, and is a great presenter. He kept a great pace and was gracious with my 5 yo old son. Can’t recommend enough if you’re in the city!

    A new way to take in the oldest city

    Seamus is a fantastic guide, filled to the brim with some of the most interesting trivia about the area I never knew (after 34 years living here). Being a bigger guy, going in I was somewhat concerned about the mobility aspect. Seamus took time to pace himself accordingly, and the experience flew by. Laughs and jokes were had, and I’d recommend this experience to anyone visiting our city, and even those like me who might have never had the pleasure of a detailed walkthrough. 10/10, 5/5, and two thumbs up. Go Rams.
