Family-friendly: Tours

Whether you prefer walking or riding, you’ll all love the tour options here

Wildly popular among families, Ride the Ducks, World War II-era, amphibious Army vehicles converted into fun sightseeing vessels, quack, disco and ride from land — through more than a dozen sites in Old City and South Street — to water — Delaware River at Penn’s Landing. Now SuperDucks and LandShark Tours have joined the land-to-water tour foray.

Boarding a Big Bus, the Double-Decker bus service made famous in London town, is one more way to see the most popular tourist attractions quickly. You can hop on and off at more than 20 stops or sit back and enjoy the beauty of the city during the 90-minute tour.

Or maybe you’d like to see the city from a bird’s eye view? Travel to the top of City Hall for a breathtaking view of Center City on one of their free daily tours!

A Herr’s Snack Factory Tour fits the bill perfectly. A priceless experience, yet it’s free — and even includes snacks! Yet another option is the Philadelphia Trolley Works, taking riders on tours led by clever guides capable of quoting fun historic and contemporary facts.
