Highlights

Betsy Ross House - Elizabeth Griscom Ross, also known by her second and third married names, Ashburn and Claypoole, was an American upholsterer who was credited by her relatives in 1870 with making the first American flag, accordingly known as the Betsy Ross flag.
Independence Hall - The Independence Hall is the building where both the United States Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution were debated and adopted. It is now the centerpiece of the Independence National Historical Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Liberty Bell Center - Easily recognizable because of its crack, the Liberty Bell remains significant today for its message of liberty. Abolitionists, women’s suffrage activists, civil rights leaders and others have all used this bell as their symbol in the fight for equality.
Rocky Statue - The 72 stone steps leading up to the entrance of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have become known as the “Rocky Steps” as a result of a scene from the film Rocky. Tourists often mimic Rocky’s famous climb, a metaphor for an underdog or an everyman rising to a challenge

Wondeful tour of Philadelphia all lit up! - Jared, our guide, was hilarious! He weaved humor into the historical information that he shared, which made for a really great time. We were lucky enough to be the only ones on the tour, making ours private. We parked and got out at certain spots and drove by others. The city was very beautiful at night. Jared offered to take our photos, which was extremely helpful Please note that the museums (i.e. liberty bell) is closed during the tour time, so you can see it from outside through a window. You'll need to make time to see certain exhibits during business hours. The philly cheesesteaksl was delicious!

Frank was excellent. Very... - Frank was excellent. Very laid back and knowledgeable. We were unable to see the Liberty Bell because of the time of the tour, which wasn't explained when booking, and this seems misleading based on the tour title. I would think I'm entitled to a partial refund because of this.

Friendly Yet Unknowledgeable Tour Guide - The tour guide was extremely friendly & pleasant, picked us up right on time from our hotel and we got to see a bunch of the sites on our Philly "bucket list." Unfortunately, the guide was extremely unknowledgeable about Philadelphia - he told us he not only moved there just 4 years ago from out of state, but that he only started leading the tour last week. He knew extremely little about the city/its history, didn't have anything informative to say while driving between sites and basically was a friendly uber driver taking us to a list of places which we could then explore on our own. This list of places included an extremely out of the way ride from Center City to the Stadium District and back for no discernable reason other than to fill time. He further said the owner of the company wasn't even from Philly, and had created the tour route earlier this year based on his favorite places in town. This tour was very expensive, and for the amount I paid I expected a knowledgeable Philly native to give us a comprehensive tour. This seemed very thrown together and unprofessional. I wouldn't recommend.
