Philadelphia Historical Tour

Our tour guide Josh was amazing! He was knowledgeable, patient, professional, and connected well to our group. He took questions, memorized everyone's name in the group using cool, and made slight deviations from his script to accommodate us. We watched a short video indoors called the White Tent. Then, Josh went above and beyond to fulfill a last minute request to show us the Liberty Bell, which was not part of the outdoor walking tour experience. He shared great insights about George Washington during the Revolutionary War and Bejamin Franklin's major contributions to American History.
Our group, which were participants in the TRiO Veterans Upward Bound program at Prince George's Community College in Largo, Maryland toured on May 21, 2022, which had a record high temperature of 90 degrees, not an ideal day to do a walking tour, but we stayed the course and remained as hydrated as possible. I recommend wearing comfortable shoes, sunscreen, sunglasses, and drinking lots of water! Masks were optional at the time, but bring them just in case.

Great tour with Adam! Adam has his Masters in American History and is very knowledgeable. This is an extended tour covering a lot of ground. A highlight was a visit to the American Revolution museum where Washington’s original war tent is on display. A sobering symbol of leadership. We also covered Independence Hall, Congress, Liberty Bell, Ben Franklin museum and gravesite, and Betsy Ross house among other sites. Adam created context and provided information not found in the average history book. Thanks for the great tour!
Adam also had a new trainee with him, Anthony, whose energy and passion for history and engaging people was contagious. We wish Anthony well with his new endeavor!

our guide Louisa was OUTSTANDING. She was so very knowledgable, filled in every detail with information from her vast historial education. Her love of the City and its history was a special part of this tour. One of the best walking tours in an historical city we have ever taken. Do request her!
Well worth the money and time.

We found it all very interesting. The guide was excellent and very informative without being boring. His pace was good and the tour wasn't very taxing for a walking tour. I thought it was a bus tour. (My mistake) but found the walking tour to be better with more information than a bus tour.
