Give this man a raise! Our tour guide was Chuck, and if you're planning on booking this tour, book w him. What a fun person to teach us about the arts in this amazing town. His back story and life was integrated into the tour...he lives close by, so he knew the townspeople, and he went out of the way to make our tour special and different, really tailoring it to our family's interest. Great job, Chuck! You're an awesome guy and are truly a gifted teacher and communicator! Highly recommend!

We had caught glimpses of some of the murals in South Philly before so we were eager to see them up close and get some history/information about them. Our tour guide, Nina, took us to numerous murals, pointed out some interesting architectural features, and gave us lots of background on the area. The tour culminated in a visit t to the Magic Garden, a large indoor/outdor art installation. We realy enjoyed the tour and have a much deeper appreciation for the effirts to make art accessible in Philadelphia.
