I visited with my father in 1984...
Gulp I'm old....was 17 ..... had my first beer and Philly cheese steak 🥩 with my father..
We took the tour and saw the Liberty Bell..
I'm in San Francisco and really need a return visit...... great 👍 video.... Many thanks
I love the British style architecture..... similar to earls Court....the East end of London and areas around Eaton street and Green Park UK......👍👍👍👍
I am a Philadelphia area native. I have watched this video several times and I love it. It's fun and super full of wonderful history. I used this as a basis to give a tour to my kids and a girlfriend and they LOVED IT!. THANK YOU!

There is more where this came from!
If you like this tour I recommend visiting the downtown area of Newport Rhode Island. It’s about the same age as old city Philly and has some similarities. Kind of like a “secret”
Awesome tour. 😊

I wish the guy who did the NOLA tours did this video, he’s got a great personality and way of speaking!!
U just doomed this speaker
No one gives a fuck, this lady is plenty good.
The other colonial churchs are on 4th St near Arch St. And 4th and Pine Sts.
I live literally in the middle of all this, my condo is seen several times. But for some reason, even walking by all this stuff every day, I never go in. I’ve only been to independence hall and the liberty bell (actually inside) one time.
Locals tend to avoid touristy things.
I used to frequent the area in college and it was my hangout . The funny thing was I had absolutely no idea that it was a famous area. It’s kind of like being friends with a person but not realizing he’s a celebrity
The best info on the historic philly…and I grew up there and lived in society hill area…hopefully Ill be doing this tour soon

What a great tour and history lesson!!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice video.
The current Graff house is a replica. It was rebuilt for the Bicentennial in 1976.
Great tour! Even the locals can learn something.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks Jenn. I thought I knew a lot about Philadelphia; but after your tour and education realized I knew very little. I've never been; but now definitely plan to visit with an expanded itinerary.
Glad it was helpful! I hope to take you out on a tour when you do visit. Jenn.
잘보고 갑니다 Hello, this is a very good video. Thank you💖
I will be going to Philadelphia next summer for the first time and this was incredibly insightful and helpful for what I should see. Thanks!

Enjoyed the tour. I walked some of this with my family but missed a lot. Must visit again .Love Boston too.To walk on the streets that have remained in tact is awesome🇺🇸🇬🇧
Glad you enjoyed it, Marilyn. We are shooting some of our tours in Boston in the very near future. Stay tuned for those!
Could never understand how some people embrace colonialism because this is why most British people are wilfully ignorant to the bloodshed tied in with invasion, colonisation and partitioning of countries.
Again, this is why there is a thing called "British Exceptionalism".
Having said all that, really enjoyed the video.
This was outstanding! Thank you!
This was the most enjoyable video I've watched for long time thank you so much
Love from Australia
We are glad you enjoyed the video H L. We also hope to show you around New Orleans when you get here. You can browse our tour selection here freetoursbyfoot.com/new-orleans-tours.

I was in Philly in 2017 and I did the tour and now I wanted to remember. Thank you Jenn
I am planning a trip to Philly. This was a great starting point to my planning. Well worth sending a tip!!
Thank you, David. That's very kind of you. Hope that we could show you around when you get here.
EXCELLENT TOUR! I hope that I visit Christ Church and the other sites that you mention.

Florida tours please!!!
Miami, St. Augustine, and Key West - maybe.
Oh, magnificent city! Thank you very much, madam. Thanks to this video, I have done a lot of research on Philadelphia. It's a dream to visit all these tourist sites like the Liberty Bell, City Hall, and the list goes on. I am a foreigner. Can you help me visit this beautiful city, madam?

I was pleased to visit last year from Bristol Tennessee and did this exact walk! Great city if you stay away from Kensington! But nice to walk through again with you! Great job
There is no reason at all to set a toe in Kensington unless one is picking up drugs.
Kensington street design with the hidden alleyways is great for historical aspect. A type of city design pattern you don’t see in other American cities like in the Midwest and South. I think that could be one reason why Rocky was filmed there
I am planning on being there for the Marine Corps 250th anniversary 2025. Too bad Tun Tavern was burned down in 1781
Pls upload a full tour on Boston
We hope to soon.
Show an in depth tour, of the history of South Philly-
I would love to enjoy this tour in person could you tell me if it is possible???? Thanks for a great tour
Yes of course! Here is the link to our live tours in Philadelphia freetoursbyfoot.com/philadelphia-tours/.
Tienen tours en español?
She made mention of a Hollywood character.Rocky Balboa,a fictional character,a boxing champion in the movies,that they even made a statue of.HOWEVER...The TRUE REAL-LIFE CHAMPION,Joe Frazier,NEVER received such recognition.The man that beat THE GREATEST.NEVER got ANY such recognition.It does NOT take ME long to figure out why....HELLO???---
The same ships that also may have holded slaves, who need more recognition for building America.
THANK YOU...TRUE HISTORY-
Some people in America need to be remined of the history of the country and how thousands died to keep it free.
Francis Hopkinton we called Cranky Frank or Franky back in Philly the creator of the American flag Betsy Ross's house isn't her actual house its a lie you wouldn't know that if your not from Philly. Oh and another thing we keep a big secret and Philadelphia cheesesteaks are really cat food don't tell anyone.
You are correct another gentleman designed the flag. A signer of the Declaration of Independence from New Jersey named Francis Hopkinson. In the video you’ll notice I mentioned frequently sewing. She is a seamstress of the flag and she is the one who assembled it.
Also notice that I started walking from the courtyard where the original house was actually located. The building that houses the museum today, was identical twin, it was a duplex. When restoration began all documents and historical references pointed to that building. It was not until over 50 years later that the true address was clarified. The entire site is used as a historical site and the home is a restoration.
But you are correct somebody else designed the flag but considering this is an abridged version of our tour I chose to focus on Betsy Ross. I do make a clear distinction that she sewed the flag hence I use the word seamstress. I did not say creator or designer on the tour since yes that is incorrect. If you take our live walking tour, I go into more depth about Francis Hopkinson and the documentation of his design. But since this is an abridged tour we need to pick and choose.
28:51 Yikes
what the heck is with "LITTLE BOYS COURT"??
It's,'Skuul-Kill", NOT, Sku-kool-
The Betsy Ross House isn’t even her house. Her house was next door where the courtyard is now but it was torn down as a fire hazard. Her body was disinterred, moved and buried to this courtyard in 1976. So much in Philly was created for tourism.
They demolished history, and called it a fire hazard
Just like the British in the war of 1812 did to the White House
Beep
Huge fan of the Founding Fathers, except for Hamilton. End the Fed, God Bless Aaron Burr!
If you like that I recommend visiting the downtown area of Newport Rhode Island. A bunch of buildings and houses from the colonial era. It kinda of reminds me of old city Philadelphia
The Federal Reserve should be dismantled.
Not sure if you were trying to insinuate there wasn’t a “peaceful transfer of power” in 2020/2021...I detected a bit of snark.
No. I can assure you that Jenn was not being snarky here.
Being egalitarian does NOT make William Penn a "hippie".
Calm down 🙄
get a better microphone set up,
The audio is fine. If you want it fine tuned, an equalizer and compression might help in the post processing but overall it’s good enough
Would've been nice to see more of the buildings and less of you.
Noted Mike, will focus on building in upcoming videos.
@@FreeToursbyFootHQ Thank you!
Alllll lies😂😂😂😂😂
What about the history of all Philadelphians? This is why we have to advocate for inclusion. When we don't, the entire history and true history is removed!
I think a lot of them came into Ellis Island New York and even Baltimore harbor.
