I'm a descendant of President James Buchanan's brother (John Buchanan). Educated in political science and law. I've resided in the Philadelphia area for over 50 years with over 25 of those years within the historic Center City region of Philadelphia. I've traveled to Europe, the UK, Scandinavia, the Mediterranean, and throughout North America (including Canada & Mexico). I'm personable, entertaining, and most people say I have a good sense of humor. I appreciate all sorts of people and cultures, and enjoy showing my city to all. You'll have a unique journey through Center City Philadelphia with me, and I'll guide and advise you as to how to get the most out of your visit to America's first capital. Licensed Driver None (except any illegal activities). Possible availability on days listed as being unavailable.

Overview of your Philadelphia tour

The city of Philadelphia was, in addition to being the largest city in North America during its birth here, was the spiritual heart of Revolutionary America. Philadelphia's Independence Hall played host to the Continental Congress. It was also where the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence was signed. Philadelphia was the home to some of the rebellion's most recognized proponents such as inventor turned patriot Benjamin Franklin. It is no surprise then that when war finally began, Continental officials worried that the British would immediately target the city while General George Washington was still consolidating his army.
