I just completed my tour with Chris on Phila. It was amazing, I highly tecommend
Chris was great and knowledgeable about the history and the makings of Philadelphia. Routed us to some delicious donuts along on the walking lesson.
It's not just going from one donut place to the next. It's also a history tour. Our guide was great and had grown up in the area. He explained how Reading Terminal Market was before it became what it's known as today. It was very interesting.
Chris in Philly was amazing! Super enthusiastic, entertaining and engaging. Great pace, great stories and great donuts!!!
Great tour, great guide, great donuts, ask for Chris!
Chris is an awesome tour guide and he knows so much about Philly.
Ed was the best. Great tour. Great Donuts.
We had a great time! I would recommend this for everyone.
Great info, incredible guide, fabulous stops!
Fabulous walking tour of the city with tasty breaks filled with doughnuts 🍩. After the tour went back and checked out some of the places highlighted on the tour like the Tiffany/ Maxfield Parrish “Dream Garden.” WOW!! Take the tour, enjoy the snacks on the way, and learn.
Chris was a great guide. He was very knowledgeable about Philadelphia history and adapted the tour to go see sights we wanted to see along the way. He was also very thorough letting us know about several options for parking in the area near the start of the tour prior to arriving
We recently moved to the area and this tour was just the right mix of exploring our new city, history and delicious treats. Chris was very knowledgeable about Philadelphia’s history yet flexible enough in the information he shared to keep the attention of our tween & teen. We had a lot of fun!
This is the second city I have done the donut tour with Underground Donut. The guide was knowledgeable about Philly and the donuts were amazing. It was a great experience and I can't wait to go on another tour in the next city. I was the only person on the tour and I was surprised the tour was not canceled. Thank you for doing a tour for one. Highly recommended.
I recommend to go with kids. Unless you are a lover of donots. Then go. Great donuts and a lot of them. Fun to walk around Philly Kelly was a wonderful guide
Enjoyed the variety of donuts and near donuts as we walked through the city. Jason, our guide shared interesting facts tailored to our interests that I wouldn't find in any guidebook. I wont spoil the surprise but we also made a stop for an experience that was unexpected and unique. Highly recommend.
Jason was a delightful guide, who provided lots of fun and informative facts about donuts and Philadelphia. Found it to be a really fun adventure.
Very fun and interesting, donuts are included in price. Tour guide mentioned a lot of personal stories and pointed out spots that are off the beaten path. The locations we visited were interesting and hearing the history behind them was awesome
This was an excellent small group tour! We learned about the history and architecture in Philly along with eating some delicious donuts! Our tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly and answered all of our follow-up questions. You can tell he really has a passion for sharing his knowledge of all things Philly as he takes you around Center City.
Tyler was super knowledgeable, generous, and a blast to be around. I'd highly recommend this for anyone new to the city, or seeking to learn both about Philly's history and its best sweet treat haunts.
I have lived in Philadelphia for over 50 years. I didn’t know anything like the Donut Tour existed. I got it as a gift for my birthday and I found it to be a unique and wonderful experience. Our guide, Jason was terrific and made it to all the better.
Jason made our donut tour interesting , relaxing and fun, pointing out many unique Philly sites including unique architecture , historical sites and murals along the way to our next stop .
Kelly was great during the tour. I got to know more about the city I’ve lived for a couple of years and now I have more facts and knowledge about it. Thank you to Jason for coordinating for us. Thank you for the birthday pin
Jason and Kelly were both amazing guides! I learned a ton about Philly and I will recommend the tour to friends and family!
So good! Kelly was awesome! It was the perfect amount of time!
Chris was great! He was very friendly, informative and easy to follow. The pace as decent and the donuts, of course, were awesome!
Super fun, educational, and delicious experience. Chris was very well informed and a great host!
We had a great time. Chris was our guide. He made the tour really fun and shared his historical knowledge along the way.
Chris made the history walk interesting. I make it a point to learn at least two things from the tour. 1. I learned why the donut hole was introduced. 2. The William Penn statue is almost 50 feet tall. 3. 88 million in bricks at city hall. 4. I like the way he told the stories. I would highly recommended the tour!
We had a great experience! The donuts were delicious and all the stops were great. Chris, our guide, was super knowledgeable about the city and very welcoming! Would highly recommend.
So glad we booked this tour. Chris our guide was so knowledgeable and not just about doughnuts! We got a very good history of Philadelphia as we travelled from place to place. The doughnuts were amazing - each unique in their own way. Highly recommend. Great for all ages
Great tour. Our guide was fun and informative. Donuts were yummy.
If you’re looking for a tasty way to explore Philadelphia beyond the usual historic sites, the donut tour is an absolute must‑try. It turned out to be as educational as it was delicious, well almost! If you love food, grab a spot on this donut tour. It’s a perfect blend of indulgence and discovery—leaving you with a satisfied belly, and a handful of extra donuts to share.
Donuts, history, an explanation of different donuts types, an enjoyable stroll with new friends.
Had an incredible experience! I gifted this tour to my Dad for Christmas. When we showed up, it was just the two of us, so a personalized tour! Jason and Tyler, who was leading his first tour, were great guides! We went to three different shops, all different types of donuts. Tyler was full of lots of knowledge of the city, even stuff I didn't know about my hometown! I will definitely book this trip again, whether in Philly or another city!
This was a lot of fun and our guide Chris was very knowledgeable about Phila history and super friendly. You could see he really enjoyed doing this tour.
Fantastic experience! Thank you to Chris, and Tyler for an amazing donut tour. Loved all the varieties of donuts, and learning more about my hometown too!
Great experience. Guides kept us entertained and well fed with some amazing donuts. Shout out to Dominic and Tyler for engaging everyone in the group. Nice date idea.
Arielle did an amazing job being our tour guide of the city and describing the amazing donuts we ate on the tour. Would definitely recommend this tour to any donut lover.
To tell you the truth, we expected more from our donut tour. It didn't start or stop where it was described in the reservation, we had 1 donut, 1 pastry, and 1 cookie. Now, our guide, Dom, have us a great tour of the Christmas sights around town, and this was a Christmas donut tour, but we expected more information on the history of the donut stores and making of the donuts.
Fun family activity with teens. Lots of great information and enjoyable afternoon with Dominic. Thank you and happy holidays!
Amazing time, our tour guide Dom was full of fun facts, the walk was amazing, we got to hit all of the great spots. Definitely would recommend.
