We loved Philly Magic Tours!! - Rob was a fantastic tour guide, host, magician, and comedian! We had a blast learning about Philly and American history. He is an engaging storyteller and we learned so many interesting facts. His magic tricks were also super impressive! We went with our nephews (kid/preteen) and our almost one year old. Everyone had a great time and we’re so happy we met Rob. We would do it again, and you should definitely check it out!!

Magic and History - Rob did an wonderful job of mixing magic and history. It was a nice change from just history facts. He used magic tricks relevant to the historical site we were at during our tour. Lots of fun!

Such a fun way to learn niche Philly history -- simply astounding! - Being residents of Philadelphia, a group of friends and I signed up to attend this Comedy Magic Walking Tour in the hopes that it would provide a fresh way to engage with our city and its history. We were blown away by the skill, creativity, knowledge, humor, and wholesome spirit of Rob Malissa's performance. My friends and I all agree that we will recommend visitors + family attend this tour if they're able.

Funny, magical way to see the Old City - Great combination of history, jokes, and some truly impressive magic tricks. Our group included couples and families with young children, and everyone had a great time. The walk is easy and includes frequent stops.

Funny, Entertaining, and Family Friendly - This tour was great. It has family friendly content comedy and great magic tricks. My 2, 11, and 14 year old sons loved it. The magician was very kind and thoughtful as he had tried to get us in shade throughout the tour and gave us a cafe break mid tour. It was great that the content wasn’t like the historical content of the other tours we had gone it. The content was funny and entertaining. I’d definitely recommend this tour for folks who are interested in a fun, low key, experience.
