Nina was a great guide. She shared 40 years of experience to enhance the tour and make our first trip to the city memorable. Highly recommend the tour; come on an empty stomach though.

Thank you Daniel! Nina, like all of our guides, is a proud and knowledgeable Philly local who loves to share all she knows, and does so in such a fun way! It's like strolling through the city with a friend!

Historical knowledge of our Guide was excellent. Food was incidental to the tour and not the best to us.

The mixture of history and food, in the historical part of Philadelphia, was perfect for me and my two teenage boys. Our guide, Mr. Furstein (sorry if I didn't spell it right), is knowledgable and patient. From the architecture to the migration of people, from the Quakers to Italian to Jewish culture, the tour covered many grounds and we all had a great time. Will definitely recommend to friends!
