Insight City Guide Philadelphia

by Insight Guides, John Gattuso

Philadelphians think of their home as a 'liveable' city - not too hectic, not too crowded, manageable. Thanks to William Penn, getting round the town is easy as pie, designed like a giant chessboard, so it is perfect for visitors and tourists to explore. From Society Hill to Washington Square, from South Philly to City Hall, our expert writers assess all the places worth seeing. The Best of Philadelphia section will help visitors prioritise their trip and cafes and restaurants are recommended for all budgets. The best eateries are described and plotted on the free pull-out restaurant guide which can be used independently of the main guide. Travels tips provide all the information visitors will need and a detailed street atlas and index are featured at the back of the book for instant orientation.

I bought this guide while planning a three-day trip to Philadelphia to attend the Philadelphia Film Festival. This guide helped me to decide in advance which attractions to visit. I carried this guide with me when I was in Philadelphia and it was very useful.

Insight Guides are particularly enjoyable due to the quality and subjects of the photos, the sleek pages, etc. It makes them worth saving even if a bit outdated!
