This is a fantastic tour for anyone with an interest in the many great musicians who came from Philadelphia. The tour goes all over the city including the lesser visited sites in North Philadelphia. The guide is great fun, a natural story-teller who made the tour pleasurable even for those who were less interested in music. Highly recommended!!

The knowledge of the tour guide and the interesting locations, along with some general history about Philadelphia. He also was a congenial host. Loved this tour and he spoke about different genres of music, not just rock and roll like most others do.
