Appetite Killer - Chris made the history walk interesting. I make it a point to learn at least two things from the tour. 1. I learned why the donut hole was introduced. 2. The William Penn statue is almost 50 feet tall. 3. 88 million in bricks at city hall. 4. I like the way he told the stories. I would highly recommended the tour!

Exploring Pholly’s History One Donut at a Time - If you’re looking for a tasty way to explore Philadelphia beyond the usual historic sites, the donut tour is an absolute must‑try. It turned out to be as educational as it was delicious, well almost! If you love food, grab a spot on this donut tour. It’s a perfect blend of indulgence and discovery—leaving you with a satisfied belly, and a handful of extra donuts to share.

Cannot speak highly enough of this tour! - Had an incredible experience! I gifted this tour to my Dad for Christmas. When we showed up, it was just the two of us, so a personalized tour! Jason and Tyler, who was leading his first tour, were great guides! We went to three different shops, all different types of donuts. Tyler was full of lots of knowledge of the city, even stuff I didn't know about my hometown! I will definitely book this trip again, whether in Philly or another city!
