Historical Early America Tour in Philadelphia (Center City East)
Overview
You can create your own start time subject to my approval, of course, as to my availability for any particular hour you choose.
(You have an option to choose your own start time or go with the further discounted set times of: 11:00 a.m. or 1:00 p.m. daily.)
Visit various American Revolutionary historic sites and unique vistas within the eastern section of the Center City section of America's first capital.
See places where people have lived continuously since the 1700's, important locations of the planning of the American Revolution, the home of the inventor of electricity, and more.
I’m a native, so my tours aren’t corporate, scripted, or shouted through a megaphone. I keep it relaxed, engaging, and actually fun - more like exploring with a local than surviving one of those loud, cookie‑cutter, obnoxious tours.
