A great way to learn about an awesome city! - I had always wanted to go to Philadelphia since I love American History. As I was traveling solo, I decided to take a group tour which is more enjoyable than walking around alone. Jenn the guide brought the history to life. She knew her facts extremely well and delivered them with humor and enthusiasm. This tour was the highlight of my trip to Philly. It was so good I decided to take the company’s ghost tour which did not disappoint!

Great Intro to the City - We had a really great tour with Jenn. She is so knowledgeable - like a walking encyclopedia of information. We thought the tour was the perfect length and it covered a lot of sites in one tour. Thanks to Jenn for all the recommendations and help planning the rest of our time in Philly!

Independence Mall Tour on Foot. - Jenn led us on an awesome walking tour of Philly which included inside a couple historic sites. Very informative! Nowadays whenever we go on vacation, we always look for Tours By Foot.

Thank you for your knowledge and one-on-one time. - With this tour, I saw so many historically significant things that my tour guide was able to educate me about that I could not have learned just walking the sites alone. I was the only one scheduled for this tour, so I received a lot of one-on-one commentary and extra time to take photos, which I appreciated. We went over our tour time, but my guide, Jen, also the company's owner, didn't care and urged me to explore. I ended up leaving the tour feeling like a friend and knowing so much more about the history of Philly and our country as a whole. Thank you for caring and taking the time to explore with me.

December 2024 Walking Tour Philly - I really enjoyed my walking tour yesterday with Tours by Foot. Even though it was the coldest day of the year so far, walking around and learning about Philly proved to be one of the highlights of my day. I learned a lot in the 2 hour tour. It started at 10:30 am at Betsey Ross' house and ended at the Liberty Bell around 12:30 pm. The group was small and intimate, which was nice and allowed for our guide to answer all our questions and have conversations with each of us as we walked. I thoroughly enjoyed this tour and, as this was my first time in Philly, I would definitely be back and do the tour again, when it's warmer.
