Eli is an awesome, entertaining and knowledgable guide and put a lot of effort into organizing and preparing the tour (he even had small gifts for all participants!). We had to leave the tour early due to another reservation and were actually quite sad we had to go. If you‘re thinking about booking the tour, go ahead! You won‘t regret it.

Our essentials tour of Philadelphia with Thomas was the perfect mixture of fun, informative, entertaining, and interactive. His desire to provide a quality tour was evident within the first 5 minutes as he set expectations, answered questions, and shared fun facts of the city's history and landmarks. This was our first walking tour in a US city and recommend Thomas' tour 100% if/when visiting Philadelphia. As our tour was in the summer, Thomas made sure to make stops in the shade, pass through buildings with AC, and he even provided a delicious cold water blend of electrolytes and natural water as well. He also provides his contact/Whatsapp/website for additional recommendations and inquiries for what to do/see in Philadelphia.

If you’re going to take a walking tour of historic Philly, Thomas is the guy to do it with! It’s clear he has such a passion for American history and Philly and paints such an amazing picture of what life was like for those here at the start of our country. You’ll learn about the stories not told in history books and leave with a deeper appreciation for the history Philly holds. Don’t miss this tour!

He has excellent recommendations for things to do and places to eat while in Philly. He was very aware of the heat and planned the route to include plenty of shade and benches. He's available for recommendations and advice after the tour. He's a lively and engaging presenter.

His passion for Philadelphia’s history really came through, and he made everything engaging and easy to follow. He was personable, welcoming, and encouraged everyone to interact, making the experience fun from start to finish.

Tom is a fantastic tour guide. He was so knowledgeable and engaging. He also had lots of helpful tips and recommendations for our visit to Philadelphia. Don’t miss this tour with Tom!

Tom was absolutely phenomenal! This was, without a doubt, the best highlight tour of Historic Philadelphia. His knowledge of the city’s history was incredible, but what really made the tour stand out was how engaging and entertaining he was. He brought history to life with fascinating stories, humor, and plenty of interesting facts that kept everyone interested from start to finish. What impressed us most was how well he connected with our group of middle schoolers and high schoolers. Getting teenagers to listen, participate, and actually enjoy a history tour isn’t easy, but Tom had them asking questions, laughing, and fully engaged the entire time. He struck the perfect balance between being informative and fun. We saw all the major historic sites, plus several hidden gems that other tours don’t include, which made the experience feel even more special. When 1/2 of our group had to miss the last part about Ben Franklin and he even offered to wait til their Independence Hall tour ended to finish the tour. If you’re visiting Philadelphia and want an entertaining, educational, and memorable introduction to the city’s history, don’t hesitate to book this tour with Tom. It was one of the highlights of our trip.
