Shane was a great tour guide. We got lucky as it was a beautiful day in Philly. We appreciated the private experience, so we could ask questions. Shane provided a lot of history insights and didn’t rush us. There is so much to explore, places to go back and visit. Our trip and this experience was planned before the government shutdown so we couldn’t access all the buildings yesterday.. so plan accordingly. Lots of compliments on the car. Thanks again Shane

Great tour! We had 3 adults and 2 children (9 and 10). Andy was super informative and hilarious! My little kids ended up sitting up front with him. The tour stops at all the hot spots for you to jump out and get a few pictures. Rocky steps, Magic Garden, Memorials, Elfreth's Alley and more. We loved this way more than the hop on hop off bus! The pickup spot is right in front of the Reading Terminal Market.

This was the worst tour I've ever taken. I found this tour to be very lackluster especially for a private solo tour. The guide hardly talked at all. I've been on tours in other cities and the biggest disappointment was my own hometown of Philadelphia.

We had a wonderful time! Our driver and tour guide, Andy, was friendly and funny and people in the streets obviously knew and liked him. The company is amazing too. Our flight got so delayed, that we had to ask them to move it from a 1pm tour to a 4pm tour, they said yes. Then it was delayed again and they moved it to 7pm. Then, when that one was further delayed, they agreed to meet us at 7:30pm. This level of customer service is unheard of and so very very appreciated. We will definitely book with them again!

Great experience. Money well spent. Only suggestion I have is don’t try to cram 6 adults into 5 spaces. The seats are comfortable for two adults or maybe three kids but not three adults. Nobody wants to sit that close to a stranger for 2 hours. Otherwise the tour was great and our guide Andy was fun and attentive to the things we wanted to see and do.
