Highly recommend this your - Glenn was a great tour guide. Lots of stories both historical and contemporary (all about parking tickets and how to order Philly cheesesteaks like a local). He was entertaining and knowledgeable. The group was small, 6 people, so it was easy to hear and negotiate spaces. I booked my tour 30 minutes before it started and my name was on the list when I showed up- seamless. Recommend
