Josh was absolutely spectacular in providing us with a very entertaining and informative history tour of the United States in two hours. From the instant the tour started, his energy enthusiasm caught us all up in the spirit of the tour, and it was extremely enjoyable.- everyone thoroughly enjoyed all the rich detail and facts that he provided, and we all had a much greater appreciation for our history. This is an absolute must tour!!!

Josh was amazing. There was a protest/rally going on and he adapted and still made the tour informative and fun. Would definitely recommend.

I wasn't sure how exciting a "historical tour" would be but our guide, Josh's, approach made for a fabulous experience. He challenged us (a whole group of people that didn't know each other) with historical trivia - as well as riddles that could be solved just with common sense. It drew everybody in and kept us all engaged. He was very animated and a terrific story-teller with a great depth of historical knowledge. He wove a tale that looped back on itself over and over again as we went from landmark to landmark. Truly great experience. Highly recommend.

I really appreciated Josh’s knowledge, story telling, projecting voice and enthusiasm. I learned (relearned) a lot about the founding fathers and the early days of the USA. I highly recommend this tour!

We had the best time on our historical tour of Philadelphia with Josh! He was incredibly knowledgeable and made the city’s history come alive with his stories and humor. You can tell he really loves what he does — he answered every question with enthusiasm and even pointed out small details we would’ve never noticed on our own. Highly recommend booking a tour.
