Fun team building activity for all! Tons of history - Had a wonderful tour by Jonathan this evening with our group. He was very knowledgeable and I enjoyed the walking tour. Would recommend it for a team building activity. More history than ghost focus but I learned a ton.

Philadelphia is phenomenal and so is Johnathan - Johnathan was a phenomenal guide, really knew his history and how to keep us intrigued throughout the whole tour. Answered any questions my small group might've had. I'm visiting from Baltimore, so it was really cool to learn how much of the country's history started here in Philadelphia that we adopted more south and beyond. 10/10 recommend

Claire Brought the Ghost Stories to Life - We went on a ghost tour last night with Claire, and it was such a memorable experience! Our group of four joined with another group of young adults, and Claire kept everyone engaged the whole time. She is a wonderful storyteller. Her use of vocal variety really pulled us in—sometimes lowering her voice so you leaned in closer, other times raising it just enough to cut through the sounds of fireworks and emergency vehicles that happened to pass by during our tour. No matter the distractions, we could always hear her clearly. Claire shared plenty of history along with the ghostly tales, which made the experience even richer. She also introduced us to a ghost app, which added a fun interactive twist. What we appreciated most was that she wasn’t over-the-top or cheesy; she kept the spooky theme alive while still grounding everything in the fascinating history of the city. Overall, Claire made the tour both entertaining and educational, and I’d definitely recommend this experience to anyone visiting Philadelphia!

Highly recommend! - We really enjoyed this! Awesome to see the city at night and hear a different perspective of the history. Not very "scary" with the haunted stuff but we were okay with that since we had our 3 kids. Tour guide was awesome! Highly recommend!

My reservation stated... - My reservation stated that the beginning and end point for the tour were the same, unfortunately this was not so. Our tour ended at the Betsy Ross house, and did not include the Church of Christ. This was surprising and abrupt as our guide himself had discussed the church as being a stop.
