Highly recommended tour

Skye_C, Apr 2022

Wonderful tour. I highly recommend this if you are interested in Philadelphia’s amazing buildings. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and happy to answer questions about the history of the city and how that related to the buildings we saw. He was also genuinely enthusiastic about the city. Great tour!
