Thanks for coming on the tour! I really put some effort into trying to create a variety of experiences by mixing magic and historical tidbits inspired by the places we visit.

This was unlike any magic show i had ever seen. We walked through parts of historic Philadelphia while being entertained with amusing stories that tied into the magic being performed. Rob was very funny and engaging but more importantly is an excellent magician. He performed sleight-of-hand tricks in an environment far different from most magicians - on busy city streets on an exceptionally warm day. I recommend the Magic Walk to anyone visiting Philadelphia from out of town as well as to anyone from the area. It was a great time and a unique experience! If you're looking for something different, this is it. Rob is terrific!
