Take a Free Walking Tour in Philadelphia led by a U.S. history teacher on a pay-what-you-wish basis. I’m Tom, a teacher in a local suburban school district, and I lead a story-driven walking tour of Philadelphia that explores the people, events, and places that shaped the nation. I am passionate about bringing the past to life.

This Philadelphia walking tour emphasizes context, storytelling, and meaningful connections rather than memorized facts. The experience is designed to be engaging, informative, and relaxed, offering a deeper understanding of Philadelphia’s pivotal role in American history.
