Tour description

Hi! My name is Diamond and I am a registered nurse and a lover of history. After living abroad for two years, and doing countless of free walking tours, I decided that I wanted to bring one back to Philadelphia — showing off the hidden and unique gems of Center City. Join me and learn about the people, architecture and history that grew downtown Philadelphia. During this free walking tour we will discover what center city Philadelphia has to offer. There are tiny little gems waiting to be discovered by locals and foreigners alike. I hope that during this tour everyone will be able to connect with it in a personal way. Starting at the heart of the city we will admire the beautiful architecture of City Hall. From City Hall and onward we will meet prominent people and learn their stories such as William Penn, John Wannamaker, and Benjamin Franklin. After City Hall we will look at why this city has so much love to show! After all that walking a quick restroom break/snack break at Reading Terminal and then onward until the tour ends at Rittenhouse Square!
