    We absolutely LOVED our tour! Our tour guide was very clearly passionate about not only the ghost stories he was telling, but also the history of Philadelphia itself. He was knowledgeable personable; pointing things out that weren’t even on the tour necessarily but that he felt we should know about. We learned SO much!!! Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone!

    Guide was nice but not a good story teller and could have been more captivating. Might be the material.

    Great tour. Lots of history with a family friendly ghost story at each stop. Lots of stops—we felt like we got to see a good bit of old Philadelphia. Group was small and the guide was way to hear. Highly recommend.

    It started almost 15 minutes late and didn’t seem to finish completely. We were bored by the descriptions and disappointed in the narrator and his lack of enthusiasm. Many people simply dropped out part way through the walk. I didn’t feel we got our money’s worth.

    It was very interesting to learn a little more history about Philadelphia. Would highly recommend!!!

    Tour started 15 min late because of a no show and poor communication from guide's boss. Because of that, guide pushed the pace and kept leaving people behind. Guide also couldn't answer any questions from tour group. We left early.

    Will was terrific! He kept a good pace and I loved how he interwove history with local ghost stories. He did a great job of getting us around to a few of the sites we hadn’t been to yet on our own travels. All the participants had fun and enjoyed the evening.

    The tour was great. Will did a great job. He was very knowledgeable and could answer all kinds of questions about the tour. I'd highly recommend.

    Logan was great!! Very informative, super patient, and answered everyone’s questions. We couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide. Thank you, Logan!!

    Guide was veryknowledgeable, apparently does the history tour as well. Did it in June, so not very dark, but the guide was a verygood storyteller as well as being well informed on the subject matter. Was just my son and I, and another family of dad, mom and daughter. Guide engaged with everyone, mostly on how much the tourists engaged with him. I am mostly quiet so he talked to the other Dad more, it that was fine for me. He did engage when I did ask a question or make a comment. Highly recommend.
