Soft spoken tour guide with no enthusiasm. Underwhelming but he did provide basic historical information.

Personalized walking tour that covered some major historical areas of Central Philly - our guide was able to accommodate physical limitations of some on the tour which was wonderful. We had never been to Philadelphia before and this was an excellent introduction. Would recommend.
