Description
There’s so much more to Philadelphia than American history: some of the most incredible public art and thriving markets are on display when you venture into South Philly. On this tour, you’ll head into the heart of the Italian Market —America’s oldest and largest outdoor market— and talk with store owners and longtime market vendors to gain firsthand knowledge about this market’s importance to the South Philly community (with a few sample tastings along the way). Then, enjoy a stroll past beautiful and surprising pieces of public art, including breathtaking murals and mind-bending mosaics. Your guide will explain the history of each piece and how they blend together into a magical tapestry that drapes across the entire city. Your tour concludes at the incredible Magic Gardens —one of the most impressive and fantastical works of art and sculpture you’ll ever see! You’re welcome to stay in Wonderland as long as you like, so get your tickets now!
