What To Expect

Combine a fun-filled Segway™ tour of the city with a history walking tour to get the most out of your time in Philly! Your 1-hour tour starts directly next to the beautiful Delaware River. Here, you’ll get a wonderful panoramic view of New Jersey and The Benjamin Franklin Bridge. Glide up the streets through the Old City up to Queen Village, a historic local neighborhood normally overlooked by travelers. Then, travel through the iconic Italian Market, South Street, and Society Hill with its gorgeous historic homes and quaint streets. Finally, head through the Independence Mall area, along Race Street.Then, start your Philadelphia history tour behind the Religious Liberty Statue and walk back in time as you explore Independence National Park and its most significant sites, such as Independence Hall, Congress Hall and Old City Hall. Continue to a spot where (on weekdays only) you can admire Maxfield Parrish’s ‘Dream Garden’ mosaic mural and possibly a quick stop in Washington Square. You'll then pass the Liberty Bell on your way to the President’s House site, home to George Washington. Stroll through Independence Mall and pass by the Independence Visitor Center, the National Constitution Center, the Bourse, and the U.S. Mint. After a peek at Ben Franklin's grave, you’ll have the chance to catch your breath and grab a quick snack or a drink in the charming back alleys of Old City. Your adventure doesn't stop here: venture past the Betsy Ross House and then down Elfreth’s Alle, visit inside Christ Church, and before saying goodbye, get a craft beer (or soft drink if you wish) included in the tour.
