Great tour!
Liz_W, September 2026
This activity takes you through the old part of Philadelphia when the three branches of government were headquartered here for roughly ten years in the late 1700s. Our guide, Jerry, is a history teacher during the week and was extremely knowledgeable and answered all questions. Everything was as advertised. It is a walking tour so definitely be ready to walk.
