Mi chiamo Tom e sono History Swiftly. Sono un insegnante di storia degli Stati Uniti in un distretto scolastico suburbano locale e la mia passione è insegnare la storia e condividere l'amore per la storia. Negli ultimi 20 e più anni come insegnante, ho portato studenti da Quebec City a Boston, a Gettysburg, ad Annapolis, a Washington. Filadelfia è sempre un tour preferito. Mi piace condividere tutta la meravigliosa storia e il divertimento che Filadelfia ha da offrire e offrire consigli su come vedere al meglio la città!
Wow - this was truly one of the best historical city center walking tours I've ever been on - done a lot of these in Europe and one in dc and this one blew many out of the water - highly recommend - Thomas is a Philadelphia treasure - definitely get on one of his tours if you're in town ! Cheers Thomas thank you !
Thomas is a treasure trove of knowledge! I was very impressed by the way Thomas intertwines factual story’s, foundational figures, and historical events together all the while being highly engaging and fun thoughout the tour. If you’re interested in exploring Historical Philadelphia, Thomas is the guide to take this adventure with!
Tom was the highlight of our trip! He was so engaging and had such a wealth of information about the city and its history. He came prepared with ponchos (it was raining), pennies for Benjamin Franklin's grave, and candy for correct trivia answers. He was deeply entertaining and clearly enjoyed sharing the experience with us. I recommended this tour to everyone we ran into on other tours and would be glad to recommend him to anyone going to Philadelphia.
Thomas was a great guide, very passionate about Philly history and gave us a very good recommendations, he was prepared for the weather so he was making sure the whole group had a great experience… if you are reading this, you cannot miss this tour!
