Our tour guide was friendly, engaging and obviously very enthusiastic about Philadelphia. I was hoping for more detailed historical information throughout the tour and more opportunities to visit certain sites listed in the description of the tour on the website. Our tour did last two hours but we missed certain sites that would have been interesting to my husband, myself and my grandchildren. I realize that its a very busy time in the city and some areas were crowded.
Annie toured us through the historic sites of Philly. A highlight was the Quaker Meeting House. We loved our morning together.
Even though our guide was very nice she had very limited knowledge of the area. This was a total rip off. I have used Viator extensively in the past with great success, I paid 260.00 for a two hour tour, I got an 1 hour and 45 minute tour that I had to help out with, a really bad experience.
Very knowledgeable guide. Enjoyed the tour very much. Walking tour and had a beautiful day to take it all in
A lot of fun, great selection of sights, expertly curated our tour which specifically included a seven and a ten year old, perfect combination of stories, anecdotes and information.
Professional guide, well versed in Philly’s early history, personable and flexible. Would recommend him without reservation.
A great experience for exploring the history of the city and how it articulates with its present, as well as the iconic places of the American revolution. I recommend it 100%
We had never been to Philadelphia before so this was a great way to get to know the city, we had a wonderful time.
What an amazing two hours with Annie. She showed the City of Philadelphia in a fun, interactive and informative manner. We could’ve have asked for or found a better tour guide.
Annie was very responsive before our tour with last minute changes. She was happy to change the itinerary to meet our needs and interests.
