Philly by Night



Want a taste of Historic Philadelphia under a starry night sky? The Philly By Night tour as an extension of the Big Bus tour from Philadelphia Trolley Works takes off nightly for a city-wide tour of Philadelphia’s most notable attractions. This evening tour gives you a different perspective of Philadelphia at night, with all the attractions lit up under a starry night sky. This hour and a half tour is not hop-on hop-off but we do give you the opportunity to climb the Rocky Steps at the Art Museum and take a picture of Philadelphia’s at night time skyline. Each tour is fully narrated by a friendly and knowledgeable Philadelphia tour guide.



Sites include: Penn’s Landing, South Street, Liberty Bell, Independence Hall, Chinatown, Avenue of the Arts, Ben Franklin Parkway & Philadelphia Museum of Art.
