A fun time. Our guide, Greg, obviously loves the city he is representing. Wish we had known that for one of the bars that food would be available for purchase. We ate before the tour because that information was omitted.

Double check the time of the tour on the City Brew Tours website
This was the first thing that I did when I arrived in Philly and it was a perfect way to kick off my trip! Tim was a fantastic guide and picked stops based on what the group liked. He was full of information but also just a fun person. It was a smaller group, and by the end of the evening it sort of just felt like we were all hanging out.Please note - I took the tour on a Wednesday, and it started at 5:30, NOT 4:45 as it states on Cool Philadelphia. I called the contact number because I thought I was lost, the person I spoke with said that the tours on weekends start at 4:45 and during the week start at 5:30.

Walking in Rocky's footsteps
We had a fantastic time on our Rocky tour. Tom was obviously a big fan and very knowledgeable, not only about where the Rocky movies were made but also the history of Philadelphia. It was a bit surreal getting to see so many places from the movies in person. Highly recommend for any Rocky fan.

Yo! A Private Rocky Balboa Driving Tour of Philadelphia

A tour not just for Rocky fans
The Rocky tour with we Venture was great. Informative, super entertaining, and you saw almost the entire city. Tom was the best, humorous, knew everything about the city, a true film enthusiast. At noon we were at the food market for lunch, really nice and varied. All the spots on the tour were worth seeing, accompanied by film sequences and a lot of interesting facts about the city. A super tour, not just for Rocky fans.

Private Philadelphia Sports Driving Tour
RationalOP, Jul 2026
You never know what you don’t know!
Recently I had the pleasure to ride with Mr. James Robinson as he conducted the impressive and memorable WEVENTURE Philly Sports Tour. I’ve lived in South Jersey all my life and been a Philly Sports fan. Eagles, Flyers, Phillies, Sixers, not to mention “Big Five” basketball - I’ve rooted for them all. My girlfriend bought the tickets for us and my first thought was “What can I possibly learn about Philadelphia sports?” (I kept that thought to myself of course.) Good thing! This tour highlighted all the teams listed above as well as Schuylkill River regattas, U of P’s iconic Palestra, the Negro Baseball League, Penn Relays and much more. If you think you know your Philly sports, or better yet, if you’re visiting Philadelphia from another city, I highly recommend taking the WeVenture Philly Sports Tour. Ask for James!

Great Food Tour
We had a fantastic tour of South Philly food scene with Jackie. She was so great on the history of the area along with each place we stopped at. We loved each stop and also given some free time around the Italian Market. Jackie was so knowlegable about the history of the immigrants moving into the area from Italy and the Eastern European countries. and also how they came to the United States to make a differnce for themselves and start these new business. So many fmily business that have veen around for many generatios. I highly reccomend this food tour, especially if you are new to Philadelphia. Thank you Jackie
