Italian Market Private Food 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. It has survived throughout the passing decades by welcoming vendors from around the world and, today, remains a popular destination for tourists and locals alike. 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!

I can't recommend this walking tour enough, it really proved to be one of the highlights of our trip to Philadelphia. Chuck was our guide and he was fantastic, full of great information and so incredibly organised that allowed us to make the best of the tour. The tour includes a lot of food so make sure you arrive hungry- throughout our tour we tried Tomato Pie, Cannollis, Gelato, Nougat, Tortillas and Pico de Gallo, Mozzarella Knots, Banh Mi and Tacos. Everything was freshly made and incredibly delicious. It was fascinating to understand the history of this area and have it brought to life with the delicious fresh food. Overall the tour is great value and definitely worth adding to your Philadelphia itinerary.
