Guided Architecture Walking Tours of Philadelphia & the Region
Philadelphia - more than any other American city - represents the history of architecture in the United States. Its more than 300-year heritage of buildings and structures includes examples of virtually every architectural style found throughout the nation.
Landmarks TOURS' Architecture Walking Tours of Philadelphia and the Region take place in more than 50 locations throughout Center City, other city neighborhoods, and the suburbs of Bucks, Montgomery, Delaware and Chester Counties in Pennsylvania, as well as Camden County in New Jersey.
Each walking tour "tells the story" of the locality where the tour takes place, as expressed through its architectural landmarks. The tours are led by trained volunteer guides who interpret the past, present and future of the Philadelphia region through this rich architectural pageant.
Landmarks Walking Tours run from May to November each year and require no reservation.
