Ted led an excellent and very interesting walking tour! Cool mix of ghost stories, seedy underbelly of history facts, some literature, and of course lots of history! Highly recommend! Wear a good jacket, it’s all outside!

Ted was very knowledgeable and kept us entertained despite the freezing cold! We all definitely learned a lot of new Philly history we didn’t know beforehand. Totally worth it!

Heather was great! Funny and knowledgeable I really had so much fun! I would have just a suggestion: the first half of the tour was a bit too still standing I would suggest it to be a bit more dynamic. Everything else was great really 🥰

Kind of boring and lengthy in a cold night. Guide just brought a large group (>20) annd walked around a few places and told some random stories here and there using the slangs. Each place stayed too long.

This tour was absolutely fantastic. Brittnee is incredibly knowledgeable—not just about Philadelphia’s history, but U.S. history as a whole. She keeps the entire group engaged, adds great humor throughout, and makes the experience truly memorable. I enjoyed the tour so much that I immediately went to find her podcast afterward. The next time I’m in Philadelphia, I’ll definitely be booking more tours with her.
