Caitlin was an excellent guide! She spoke knowledgably about the history of the city and its food. She was attentive and easy to understand. The food was yummy. My only concern was the size of the group - 17 was a lot to keep up with.

Thank you very much for this feedback! That's just about at the maximum that we allot for that tour but always want to make sure that we can provide an optimal tour experience with enough opportunity for intimacy and personal touch. But we're still so glad that you enjoyed the tour altogether and appreciate your kind words about our Guide!!

Kaitlin our guide was phenomenal, being a local she knew so much about the history of the city and the food itself which was very interesting to learn and unexpected! The food was excellent as well! All local places with food unique to Philly which is what I look for when I travel. Really loved this tour can't recommend it enough.

Caitlyn was a great guide. We were tourists in our own city and we learned things that we didn’t know about the history of tomato pie and cheesesteaks and that was really fun!
