Italian Market Food Tour - Small Group Walking Tour

Overview

Along a stretch of 9th Street in the heart of eclectic South Philadelphia lies the Italian Market, one of America’s oldest and largest outdoor markets. This iconic collection of butchers, bakers, specialty shops, and restaurants has been the backbone of this historic neighborhood since its creation in the late 1800s. Join us for a stroll through the Italian Market, among the vibrant fruit stalls, past the fragrant bakeries, into various shops and unique stores, and peeking down hidden alleys covered in fantastical street art. Along the way, you’ll have the chance to sample several delicious dishes, including cannoli, tomato pie, and tacos! Your guide will also introduce you to other Italian Market staples and immigrant-inspired fare, savoring the flavors of the market as you make your way down this iconic street. Wherever your guide leads you, your senses will be popping as you explore one of the most unique, thriving, and diverse areas of the City of Brotherly Love.

Exploring the Italian Markets with no prior knowledge of the area left high expectations of the delicious food, and it surpassed what I imagined! The food was incredible, the knowledge gained was valuable, and the tour guide was a perfect leader of the group. I was ecstatic with the result of the tour, and I would gladly sign up for more in the future.

Our tour guide, Chuck, was such an excellent tour guide. He gave a short and impactful history of the Italian Market, engaged us with questions, and provided lots of samples throughout the market. We were all stuffed by the end of this tour!
