“Disappointing. We try to do these hop on hop off sightseeing buses whenever we travel to new cities. It’s a great way to get a feel for the lay of the land and then get from Stop to Stop. Unfortunately this one is Philadelphia was disappointing. It traveled to a very small area of the city so we really missed out on seeing a lot. It also was detoured because of a parade that was taking place. This had to be something that was known ahead of time so I feel that the tour bus and the gods should’ve been better prepared for the detours. I had contacted the tour…”

“I purchased the two day pass and used every minute of each day. As an extra, I heard two different guides and learned different things. One day, I took it out to the zoo (which was fabulous) and since it was during a slow time, the guide suggested texting him when I was ready to return. He was most helpful and conscientious.”

“We enjoyed the different exhibits. The exhibits at the Museum of Illusions are both entertaining and appropriate for children. Due to potential crowding, especially around popular displays, it's essential to plan your visit strategically. I suggest either budgeting time to revisit exhibits or taking a slow, deliberate approach, paying close attention to the descriptions to understand the illusions fully. Have fun!”
