Self-Guided Walking Tours to Explore Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Welcome to Philadelphia – the birthplace of American independence! If you are visiting for the first time, our Introduction Walk will take you to the most glorious sights. History comes alive on a tour of the Old City, or you may just as well follow the Benjamin Franklin Walk to gain a more complete view of the Founding Father's life and work.

In all, we have prepared 10 self-guided walks for you to explore Philadelphia, which cover everything from historic and iconic landmarks to ample shopping and entertainment opportunities. Not only that, but you can also create your own walk with the attractions that interest you most and even set your hotel as the walk's starting point!

How it works: Download the app "GPSmyCity: Walks in 1K+ Cities" from Apple App Store or Google Play Store to your mobile phone or tablet. Each walk comes with a detailed tour map as well as photos and background information for the featured attractions. The app's navigation functions guide you from one attraction to the next. The app works offline, so no data plan is needed when traveling abroad.
