Allow Tripshepherd to take you on a journey to see the best of what Philadelphia has to offer. There is no better way to see the city than on our Best of Philadelphia Small Group Tour!

Your tour will begin with your friendly local guide picking you up directly from your hotel in city centre Philadelphia in one of our complimentary vehicles. You will enjoy passing by key historical points of interest.

Pass by Independence Hall, which is known as the birthplace of America, and is most famous for its role in American independence. Your next stop will be to view the historic Liberty Bell. Easily recognisable because of its crack, the Liberty Bell remains significant today for its message of liberty.

You can’t go to Philadelphia without making a stop at the Rocky Steps. A near-constant flow of people arrive daily at the bottom of the stairs at the Philadelphia Museum of Art to snap a picture with the Rocky statue, originally created for a scene in Rocky III and now a real-life monument for the beloved fictional hero. Running up the grand stairway, mimicking the famous two-arms-raised salute, and soaking up the view of the city is a must while in Philadelphia. You’ll also get a chance to see the Washington Monument Fountain and The Oval while you’re there.

You will be in awe of the Eastern State Prison Historic Site - the first true “prison.” What was once the most famous and expensive prison in the world stands today in ruin as a haunting world of crumbling cell blocks and empty guard towers. At one point, the cells held many of America’s most notorious lawbreakers, including bank robber “Slick Willie” Sutton and Al Capone.

Your guide will then take you on a scenic city drive, passing by such points of interest as the Rodin Museum, the Barnes Foundation, the Franklin Institute, the Cathedral Basilica of Saint Peter and Paul, Love Park, and City Hall.

You will go in Reading Terminal Market, this location is one of America’s largest and oldest public markets, housed since 1893 in a National Historic Landmark building. Along with Philly Cheese Steak, the market offers an incredible selection of locally grown and exotic produce, locally sourced meats and poultry, the finest seafood, cheeses, baked goods, and confections, and the widest variety of restaurants under one roof.

After a full day of adventure, your guide will return you to your city centre Philadelphia hotel where you can unwind and ref
