This 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. And after having the overview of the tour we were able to pick a few things we wanted to have for lunch after the tour. It was a really great day and one that I know my parents will remember for a long time.

Tootsie was an incredible guide through the Market. Not only did we receive a thorough and entertaining tour, we also got to see the rich history of the Market at every turn. I would highly recommend!

Our experience was exceptional. Matthew was superb as a guide and a leader in the market We are both high school teachers so we understand instruction and difficult people. Matthew has the right personality for the job. He was friendly and fun while also being informative. I have already recommended his tour to several others.

We had a great time and learned a lot! We both were born in raised in the Philly area and had been to Reading Terminal before. There is so much you don't know and wouldn't know unless you are guided around. Matthew was extremely welcoming and knowledgeable! Highly recommend!

My husband and I had a great time on this food tour. The food was good and I appreciated that we went to authentic and not "touristy" places. The tour had a good balance of historical information and just walking seeing the sights and eating the food. Adam was great at this! It was also a pretty hot day and Adam did a good job at trying to keep us inside or in the shade and having water available. We would definitely recommend this tour!
