    Aimee and Marisa were fabulous, friendly, and so helpful! They took time explain the types of stores, things we would find and even gave us types for more to do when we left them. I can’t recommend this enough. We had the best time touring with them.

    We had a nice sized group. Our guides were very personable and gave us good descriptions of store and additional stops we could try out after our tour.

    A favorite day in Philadelphia

    Susan_M, Jul 2025
    This tour was a lot of fun in a very interesting part of the city. We were looking for an activity that our teenage grandchild might like after doing all the historical activities and this was perfect and fun for us too. It was a hit. Aimée and Melissa have fun personalities and it was like being with old friends. Besides shopping they walked us past some great murals and art installations. Just a note if you are planning…. We went to Magic Gardens before our tour…. Same general area and it blew us away. … also had lunch at Angelo’s Pizza to check out their highly rated cheesesteak.. Topped this all of with the shopping and it was a “favorite day”

    Best thrift tour guides ever!!!
