Reviews of Beyond the Bell Tours
“Not your usual walking tour -- just many notches above. Joey was the ultimate guide: enthusiastic, articulate, well-read... and humorous, to boot. Would happily walk with him again and again. A small (9) group of interesting people from diverse backgrounds made for equally interesting questions/contributions. An absolute must while in Philadelphia.”
“We loved this tour! Articulate and knowledgeable people leading the tour, fun and engaging subject matter, and you learn about some of the people, not places, that are the heart of Philadelphia history.”
“This was a great tour! Rebecca is a wonderful story-teller. We learned so much in a fun and relaxed setting. It was our first trip to Philadelphia, and it made the trip so much more interesting to learn about the history from a pro. My 16-year-old son was with us. He's not very interested in history, but even he said it was awesome!!”
