We provide turnkey resources, such as “Suggested itineraries”, as well as various educator resources including a Teacher Resource Guide and annual Teacher Appreciation Days.
Our tour guides are passionate historians and Philadelphians who hail from top academic institutions. They have been trained in our “Independence Immersion”™ curriculum focusing on Philadelphia's history, tourist attractions, and sharing of best practices in terms of customer service, public speaking and storytelling. Our guides bring Philadelphia’s history alive.
We also offer Historic Philadelphia Scavenger Hunts, which are a great team building activity and fun way for group participants to get to better know each other. We provide a list of fun clues related to the sites in and around Historic Philadelphia/Old City.
