Tour Description

See Philadelphia from a New Angle with the 1.5-Hour Double-Decker Bus Tour, Philly By Night. Witness the iconic sites of the city bathed in the seductive radiance of a starry night sky. This isn't a hop-on, hop-off tour, but we make sure to stop at important places so you may brave the famous Rocky Steps at the Art Museum and snap a photo of Philadelphia's glittering skyline.

While daytime is the ideal time to go sightseeing, some places, like the Benjamin Franklin Bridge, are worth visiting at night. Take a stroll around Race Street Pier to witness this famous monument. This is a great place to have a picnic.
