Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens Tours and Tickets

A sightseeing tour is the best way to explore an unfamiliar city, but many group tours can feel crowded and impersonal. Swap crowded buses for your own personal vehicle with this private tour of Philadelphia's highlights—from the Benjamin Franklin House to "The Thinker"—that is exclusively for your party.

There’s so much more to Philadelphia than American history - some of the most incredible public art is on display when you venture into South Philly! On this tour, you’ll head into the heart of the Queen Village and Bella Vista neighborhoods to explore beautiful and surprising pieces of public art, including breathtaking murals and mind-bending mosaics. As you hear the history of the pieces you see, you’ll come to appreciate how public art and creators are intertwined and appreciated by the neighborhoods that they call home, and how amazingly accessible art is throughout a major city like Philadelphia. After exploring the street art and a gallery or two, your tour concludes at the incredible Magic Gardens - one of the most impressive and fantastical works of art and sculpture you’ll ever see! Part of your ticket price also includes a donation to a local organization supporting artists in the city, so you’ll be directly impacting the incredible community highlighted on this tour!
