Philadelphia Food Tour

Are you hungry? If the answer is yes, we'll meet at the scheduled time in front of Philadelphia's Masonic Temple, ready to begin this exciting food tour. Let's go!

We'll head first into the iconic Reading Terminal Market, one of the oldest in the United States, and walk between the stalls to enjoy some typical dishes. We'll have a delicious bretzel filled with cheese and meat, very typical of Philadelphia! We'll also enjoy an Italian-style cannoli.

Afterward, we'll sample one of the most imitated desserts in the world, which has its origin in Philadelphia. That's right! It's the famous Philadelphia cheesecake. Then, we'll head downtown and stroll down Sansom Street to learn about some of the culinary innovations that have developed here.

To round off our food tour, we'll check out the initiatives by different restaurants in the city to develop sustainable gastronomy.

We'll finish the tour on Sansom Street two hours and a half after the start of the activity.

Maggie, la guía, excelente. Buena guía, explicando la arquitectura y los origenes de los distintos platos que hemos degustado. Hemos visitado distintos mercados con productos variados que hemos degustado. Hacer una ruta gastronómica es otra forma de conocer la historia y orígenes de la ciudad. Fantástico.
