Creating memories, while learning is the best. Reid was informative and thought provoking. He caused us to think beyond the "play."
Thanks so much. I think learning while having fun is the best combination. You guys were great too, singing and dancing along with me.
If you like Hamilton the show or simply enjoy history this tour is fantastic. Reid is amazingly knowledgable about Hamilton and accompanies the tour with music from the production and singing. My wife and daughter absolutely loved it. You also get to hear the real stories of Hamilton and the timelines. Well worth the time to listen to Reid. Thank you.
I am so glad you all enjoyed the tour. Thanks for your kind words. There are a lot of facts b=and I'm glad it was all loved!
It was awesome and we learned a TON of information. We did a lot of walking in historic Philly. The tour guide (Reid) clearly loved what he was doing and had great details that are hard to find in mainstream textbooks. If you like anything having to do with Alexander Hamilton this walking tour is for you.
Thank you so much for this very kind review. I love the word awesome in my reviews. I'm glad you learned things and had fun on the tour.
Reid was an outstanding guide. His expertise and passion for Hamilton was perfect for my family. He shared so much information with us and helped us see the truth behind the musical. We appreciated hearing the music along the way and making connections to Hamilton's life, the musical and the city of Philadelphia. Thank you, Reid!
Thank you so much for your very kind review. I'm so glad you enjoyed your time with me!
Reid is very knowledgeable on Hamilton history and the early American history. He made the whole walk very relevant and well-paced. MY daughter, a major Hamilton buff told me that she learned quite a few things from the tour. She also enjoyed singing with Reid although I have no idea how the two of them could memorize all the lyrics.
I'm so glad you both enjoyed the tour with me. And I'm glad your daughter sang along as it makes the tour more fun that way. The way to learn the lyrics is practice, practice, practice.
Reid was fantastic! He is very knowledgeable and energetic. He was also patient and responsive to my 10 year old’s questions, often engaging him in the narrative. Singing Hamilton songs on the streets of Philadelphia is great fun! If there was shade available, Reid found it, which was much appreciated. This tour was equally educational and entertaining. My younger daughter was not the target audience, but Reid’s songs had her dancing when possible and he kept the story moving despite her fidgeting. I’d say 9ish is about the youngest that’s good for this tour, unless the child is very into Hamilton and the history of the American Revolution, but the guide was very accommodating in any event. It is 2.5 hours with no bathroom breaks. There are frequent stops, sometimes with benches, if available, but it is good advice to wear comfortable walking shoes and bring water. Highly recommend!
Thank you so very much for the wonderful comments! Kids are tricky and I do try to limit my tours to children 10 and up, but both of yours were wonderful. Your son's singing and daughter's dancing made my day!
We had a great time! Reid was a wealth of knowledge. His stories were fun and full of brain tingling facts. He took the preteen seeming to be disinterested in stride—- both loved it and learned so much sharing it with us the whole drive home! Thank you!
I'm so glad everyone enjoyed the tours. Kids are a tough audience, so I'm glad they had a good time too.
I enjoyed learning about the life and career of Alexander Hamilton and his relationships with other Founding Fathers. Wish I had dressed more warmly.
I'm glad you enjoyed the tour and sorry about the weather. Not much I can do about that.
Reid was an excellent guide, very well researched and entertaining. We all really enjoyed the tour, especially the sing-a-longs and seeing significant aspects of Hamilton’s life. Reid was very patient answering all of our questions. Loved every minute!
