I was very underwhelmed by this tour. To begin, the tour guide showed up 30 minutes late. I thought it was a decent historical tour, but I booked this tour under the expectation it was a ghost tour. I was hoping to hear more about the ghosts or grim side of Philly history. The tour guide got very distracted by dogs and stopped our tour at one point to advertise Grim Philly and their podcasts to strangers. I have done many ghost tours in other cities and they have all been somewhat a performance. The tour guide always dresses up, but in this one the tour guide was wearing leggings and a tshirt. I was just overall very disappointed by the tour which is upsetting because I was really excited for it.

It was a great tour. Britnee was excellent. She handled a large tour with ease.

A candy bar in exchange for a five star review. That’s what our guide offered after taking us on a history tour...not the adult night tour we paid for.
