The Best of NileGuide
- Looking for fun things to do while visiting Philladelphia? The hard thing to do is to pare down just what you will actually have time to do. Start with a DeTour, the first and only tour to offer small-group tours through the city by segway, by bike or by...running. Tours are in small groups and last for a few hours, which means visitors are guaranteed a personalized and highly informative tour every time. Sesame Place has more than 60 play stations and water rides at the nation's only theme park based on the award-winning television show. The Philadelphia Zoo, in operation since 1874, is the oldest zoo in the United States. Frank Furness designed the beautiful Victorian gates and gatehouses, still standing grandly at the entrance. The Philadelphia Museum of Art is notable for both its collection and its architecture. And, of course, if you're a history buff, there is enough here to keep you busy for weeks. But just for today, think about the present, and all the fun things to do during your stay in Philadelphia.
