Annie was very knowledgeable about Philadelphia’s history and kept our tour running smoothly and on time. She picked us up promptly at our hotel and made thoughtful efforts to keep us comfortable on what turned out to be an unusually hot April day. We also appreciated her depth of knowledge and the additional recommendations she shared for exploring the city.

We’ve highly appreciated the four hour walking tour with Annie. We’ve l seen a lot of different places in the historic part of Philadelphia. We’ve ended the tour in the center of the city in places that are worth to be seen and visited. We had a wonderful time in Philadelphia! Thanks Annie for the nice time spent together and for having shared with us so many interesting events in the history of the city and of the country. Don’t hesitate to book this tour with Annie. We had the tour in French. Cela vaut vraiment la peine de faire cette visite guidée.

Our guide, Annie L. was wonderful. She paced the tour beautifully including tailoring historic information to engage our 15 year old niece, who had never been to Philadelphia. Annie took us to locations and sites we had never seen in the historic district - even though we have lived in the area for decades. Bottom line: Annie's tour helped remind us of the importance of history and the risks people have taken throughout the years to create AND preserve our precious American country and our freedoms.

If you want to know about the history of Philadelphia, Annie is the person you need to book your tour with. She is very knowledgeable and truly love the city. We know much more now about the city than having doing it by ourself. thanks Annie! note: important to verify the time the places that we will visit are opening to avoid having closed doors. Consider starting the tour around 10 am instead.

Wonderful tour and guide. Annie was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. In a four hour tour we felt that we had seen most of the major sites in Philadelphia. Moved at an excellent pace but allowed time for me to take many videos. The surprise was going into Macy's to see the Grand Court and hear the massive pipe organ. Highly recommended.
