Perfect tour with Jenn
Elizabeth_C, July 2022
Excellent tour with Jenn. History, art and the learning about the real Philly foods, culture and people. Highly recommend this for an overview of the historical sights and a great way to see a lot of the City. My daughter and I had the best time.
Fun in Philly!
Brooke_W, July 2022
Jenn was great and super knowledgeable! We saw a ton and learned a lot! I would highly recommend this tour for getting to know the city! Thanks!
Philadelphia in a day!
Marilee_C, Dec 2021
Jen was fantastic as she showed us all the highlights of the city as well as some little hidden gems we never would have known about with our her. She was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and entertaining. We only had one day to see the sights and she definitely helped us make the best of it!
Response from Host, Jan 2022

We are so glad that you enjoyed your time with Jenn, she is undoubtedly one of our best guides in the city, and we're glad you got the opportunity to learn and see hidden gems of Philadelphia with her. We hope you'll join us for another wonderful experience in the near future! Wishing you a wonderful start to your week, Travel Curious Team
Perfect 3 hour tour of Philly. Highly recommended
Walter_B, Dec 2021
Jenn was fantastic. Nice, great with kids. Born and raised in Philadelphia she gave us all the inside info of being from Philadelphia. Great tour. Visit to the Italian Market was a highlight. We left with a great feel of the city and it's different eclectic neighborhoods and ultimately, isn't that what you want from a private tour. There is no way we could have done this on our own. Highly recommended tour.
Response from Host, Dec 2021
Hi Walter, Thank you so much for your kind words, they're very much appreciated! It was an absolute pleasure to welcome your family in Philly, and we're delighted that you had the opportunity to experience the city with Jenn, who undoubtedly goes above and beyond to show a great time to all our guests. We hope you'll join us again to plan many more fun family trips in the future. Our best wishes, Travel Curious Team
Excellent tour of Philadelpha
Susan_L, June 2021
Jenn was a excellent tour guide who shared her love and knowledge of Philadelphia with us. Highlights water works area, Elfreth’s alley, China town, Italian market, etc. Well worth the time.
Response from Host, June 2021
Hi, Susan! It makes us immensely happy to know that you had a great time with Jenn, she is truly a fantastic guide. We're happy to know you felt the love.
