Along a stretch of 9th Street in the heart of eclectic South Philadelphia lies the Italian Market, America’s oldest and largest outdoor market. This iconic collection of butchers, bakers, and restaurants has been the backbone of this historic neighborhood since its creation in the late 1800s. It has survived throughout the passing decades by welcoming vendors from around the world and, today, remains a popular destination for tourists and locals alike. Join us for a stroll around the Italian Market, among the vibrant fruit stalls, past the fragrant bakeries, into various shops and specialty stores, and weaving through hidden alleys covered in fantastical street art. When possible, you may even get to try a small bite or two. Wherever your guide leads you, your senses will be popping as you explore one of the most unique, thriving, and diverse communities in the City of Brotherly Love. Please note: This is a "market tour," not a "food tour." Samples may vary and will not equal a meal.

We’ve been waiting to go on this tour for awhile. As soon as my daughter reached 102lbs we booked our tour and traveled 2hrs. Our tour guide Mike was great! He was informative, lively, fun, patient with the training and protective of the kids. The whole experience was great from our 1st step into the meeting place to the end of our tour, the whole staff was awesome, friendly and helpful. We would take the tour again.

If you are looking for a true "experience" this is the tour for you. You won't see tourists - or tour buses for the entire excursion. We visit and experience the real and remote areas of Lancaster County that only locals know, well off the beaten path of a typical PA Dutch Country tour. Our groups are never larger than 14 people and we provide inside access and information not known to the public through relationships we have with the Amish and Mennonites here in Lancaster. Our guides have Amish relatives, Mennonite roots, and are deeply connected to many people here in the county with a wealth of knowledge and information. This may not be the cheapest experience, but the access and one-to-one attention you'll get is priceless. We even stop on real Amish farms that the public doesn't have access to (not listed on the itinerary). We look forward to introducing you to new cultures among many other gems and informative nuggets you'll get from this experience!
