This is absoutely one of the best tours available in Philadelphia, and so interesting and insightful. My tour guide was Mijuel, and he is so knowledgeable, very funny and engaging, and was very generous with his time. I took two tours of the Black Journey, both with Mijuel and was so glad I did. I could not recommend him more highly - he's outstanding.
Excellent tour, informative
It was entertaining, enlightening along with time to explore The history was just enough, the experience was great and I would recommend you to challenge your mind and perspective. It will require moderate walking , si put your comfys on
Informative and well-presented at an easy pace. Leaves from near the Liberty 🔔 Bell.
The tour was very informative about both the city of Philadelphia but also the history of African American in the city of Philadelphia
This man is amazing, truly a professional. His presentation is truly immersive, i felt as if i was time traveling.
My partner and I enjoyed this tour. The tour guide was professional, passionate, and well spoken. The tour was engaging from beginning to the end. We both learned a lot of useful nuggets about African Americans and POC in general that are is wildly known.
The tour was so much fun! Mijuel was a wonderful guide, a politically astute, historian with deep roots in Philadelphia. Our guide was quirky, fun, and informative while keeping us engaged and on our toes. Walking the tour, seeing Philly in her beautiful end-of-summer glory with her residents driving by pumping their tunes made me feel like I was in the Will Smith song, Summertime! Take the tour, set aside 2.5 hours, have fun, and learn something.
It was great! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. I appreciate his wit with a very sensitive topic it was perfectly timed. I honestly wish the tour could have been longer, the two hours seemed to have flown by! Recommend for anyone who wants to learn the deeper Black history in Philly.
Wish I jotted down our tour guides name. Soooo informative and knowledgeable! Thorough also! This was a great 90 minute walking tour that took us through a journey of the history of slavery in Philadelphia; such as where they were housed within the White House, the names of George Washington’s slaves, etc. We saw Independence Hall, Congress Hall, Washington Square, Bethel AME Church which was the oldest African American church….and so much more! I truly recommend this tour because you walk away knowing both sides of Philadelphia’s rich history.
