HIGHLY recommend City Food Tours & the Reading Terminal Market tour - my husband and I treated ourselves to the tour as an anniversary event, and it was just a lovely 1.5 hours. Matt (our tour guide) curated such a great itinerary - delicious - so many great facts & stories about RTM. He had a great relationship with the vendors and they clearly enjoy working with him. We loved it.

We took my mom on a tour as a Christmas gift, and enjoyed our time with Matt, who was a very enthusiastic and knowledgable guide! We got some treats at the beginning and end of the tour, which were a nice touch. Matt seemed to have good relationships with several vendors, which also lent a positive air to the tour. My mom already made a list of things she wants to try the next time she visits. :)

This Reading Terminal Market tour was great! I am a local and I brought my parents. They loved hearing about the history and the unique food. Our tour guide, Kaitlin, was perfect! The tour only being 45 minutes was perfect for my parents. You get just a couple samples. But after having the overview of the market we were able to thoughtfully make decisions for lunch. It was a really great day and one that I know my parents will remember for a long time. And We loved our ready Reading Terminal Market tour so much we did another tour with Kaitlin. This time for the Christmas Village in love park. It was 90 minutes long but the time flew by. We pretty easily found the meet up spot but I can imagine if you were not familiar with the park it could be tricky. It was a good amount of food. I love the apple strudel! We did not leave hungry. The history and stories of German Christmas markets was great. We even took a few minutes to sit down to eat which was nice to rest my feet. I would totally recommend City Tours!

We signed up for a Philly food tour and ended up on a flavor rollercoaster hosted by the one and only Karren, who I’m now convinced is part guide, part historian, and part stand-up comedian. From the first bite of cheesesteak to the last heavenly crumb of tomatopie, every stop was a home run. Karren didn’t just feed us—she fed our souls. Her knowledge of Philly’s food history is insane (in the best way), and the way she tells stories? Let’s just say if Netflix doesn’t give her a special soon, they’re missing out. She managed to make the tour feel like a casual hangout with a bunch of friends—except we were constantly eating, laughing, and learning. I think I gained 5 pounds and 10 new facts about pretzels. Worth it. In short: book this tour, wear stretchy pants, and prepare to rate it a 25/10 too. Karren, you’re a legend.

Steve our guide was amazing! We loved the historic references he made to many of the sites on our tour. As a family who live in Philadelphia, we enjoyed learneding new things about our city. This was a belated Father's Day gift and a lovely way to spend the afternoon. Only a couple of hours. Well worth it! Strongly recommend if you enjoy food, history and getting your daily steps in!
