I never had this many laughs in history class, or knew learning could be this much fun. Robert Malissa turns a tour of historic Philadelphia into an engaging and enjoyable 90 minutes of fun, knowledge and a little bit of magic, too. It was a great walk, a great time, and a terrific way to get to know Philadelphia from a slightly off-the-beaten path perspective.

Thanks for the kind words, glad you liked the Walk! It took me many years before I realized how engaging history can be. Now, I love it. As I say on the Walk, the tour is a mash up of my passions, Philly history, magic and mystery.

I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. A unique blend of fact, fiction, magic and comedy made for an entertaining presentation. I especially liked how the presenter involved the audience during the tour. It was fun to be out in the open air, strolling through the city and seeing it with fresh eyes. Thank you
