Ride on the this authentic London sight-seeing bus.
Take a look around Philadelphia from the top of an authentic London sightseeing bus as you see all the best sights of the city that's home to the Liberty Bell, the nation's first zoo, Grace Kelly and the Philly cheesesteak sandwich! You'll see where George Washington served most of his presidency and where the nation's first flag was probably sewn by Betsy Ross.

Climb up the Rocky steps in front of the Museum of Art in the footsteps of Stallone, visit the new-age shops along South Street, see the animals in America's very first zoo, see the home where Benjamin Franklin lived and take in the sheer beauty of America's largest urban green space, Fairmount Park. Founded in 1682, Philadelphia has always been a hot vacation spot, and you'll see it all in style! You'll also have the opportunity to hop off at more than 20 sites around the City of Brotherly Love — take off and see the city or sit back and enjoy the entertaining and informative tour.

Customer Reviews
Great tour if you can be on top of bus. Not so great if you are stuck on the bottom. Get there early and do the entire tour first. Then decide where you want to get off and explore the second time around. You can hop on and off for 24 hours.
