Great history and insights! Glad I purchased this tour. It helped me see the market in a new light. Just wish I could eat more
Philly is all about the culture, the food and the people. I call this place home, and today I’m going to share with you my favorite neighborhood, the Old Italian Market. Go at your own pace, this tour is all smartphone guided on our walking tour app. Stop anytime, and continue when you want. As you walk you'll hear the stories and history of the area and uncover what Philly is all about. You will see the most historic and local food spots. You’ll see the inventors of cheese steaks, the barbacoa king, pizza shops, the oldest Italian Market in the USA, restaurants, shops, murals, churches and so much more. Why choose this tour? It's the best deal in town and you'll hear the stories and history of the area. You'll be more Philly than a cheese steak when you are done.
Departure Point
- The tour starts at Pat's and Geno's. What's more Philly than a cheese steak? Learn the history of these two iconic spots and then explore the Italian Market on 9th Street.
- The tour ends at Santucci's the original square pizza, and a local historic and delicious stop. You'll hear the history of the pizza joint and the tour ends here.
