We loved it! Our guide was lovely and engaging. The Magic Gardens is a must see! Artist Isaiah Zagar has imprinted his creativity upon this city like no other — covering walls, floors, buildings, homes, inside and out, up and down, with his marvelous mosaics. This is a unique tour — highly recommend!

Carla was absolutely wonderful! She was highly knowledgeable and kind! We did this tour in 20 Fahrenheit- she didn’t cancel despite the temperature and we had truly a great time. We learned so much about this beautiful part of Philly. We highly recommend this tour!

I really enjoyed the tour with Heather. There was a nice small group of people and we saw lots of artworks and the visit to the Magic Gardens was excellent.

Amazing tour for those limited with time. Brittany was an amazing tour guide.

Chuck was a great guide introducing us to South Philly, its history, and art.
