Definitely Recommend this tour

Our guide Tom was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. He added a great intangible to a regular tour. I had limited mobility and he did everything he could to help minimize the walking and standing I had to do. Great lunch recommendation for the obligatory Philly cheesesteak. We got to see all the major spots in Philly plus more that we weren't even aware of. He was very flexible with what we wanted. I liked that he called a few days before the tour to touch base, introduce himself and find out what our expectations were.
Terrific tour in the City of Brotherly Love
Cheri_N, May 2023
Our tour guide, Tom, was what made the tour memorable and fun. He had facts and stories he shared, was always upbeat and eager to make sure we had the best experience possible. He was sensitive to our needs as well. It was absolutely the highlight of our trip to Philadelphia.

My niece and nephew especially enjoyed the history, Fairmont Park, Reading Terminal, and the Italian Market. Tom Courtney was an excellent tour guide who managed to drive us around Philadelphia seamlessly--dropping us off and then joining us after he parked. The car was comfortable and clean. It was a special day for this Aunt!
Great time
