Founding Footsteps Tours

Tour agency

👍👍 Shamus was AMAZING! He was so knowledgeable, he went at a great pace and had facts I don’t believe we would have learned everywhere. He made the tour so much fun, I didn’t want it to end. This is a must to see all the sites! Note we don’t go in the sites but you end at the independence hall so you c...

St. Augustine's Roman Catholic Church

Catholic church

👍👍 Beautiful church with abundant history! The Catholic Church is over 219 years old, located in Old City, Philadelphia.

Smedley Christmas Display

Tourist attraction

👍👍 Per a resident of Smedley Terrace, this 100 year old neighborhood has been decorating for Christmas for at least 70 years.

Congress Hall

Historical place museum

👍👍 A must see, even for a short time. Make sure you get tickets ahead of time for the tour. The tour isn't so much a tour but a lesson in history. The guide was very knowledgeable and the building is full of period (if not original) furniture. All in all this is a very interesting place full of America...
