Fantastic 5.0
Had an amazing time exploring Washington, DC and Philadelphia! The tour was a great way to see two historic cities in a short amount of time. From the iconic landmarks and monuments in DC to the historic streets and sites of Philadelphia, every stop was worth it. The itinerary was well-organized, the experience was smooth, and it was definitely a convenient way to explore both cities without having to plan everything on my own. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the East Coast, especially first-time travelers!

Great 4.0
The guide and the bus were awesome! they have combined the 1-day tour and 2-days tour into one group. as a result, I felt the itinerary has been compromised. Every stop we have only 10-20mins. The Amish country tour was very basic with a 10mins horse carriage ride around a field to see cows and chicken. Basic farm tour to see chicks, puppies, horses, cows, goats and 3 little pigs.

Fantastic 5.0
We had an amazing time at The Franklin Institute! It’s one of the best science museums we’ve visited, with so many interactive exhibits that kept both the kids and adults entertained for hours. The Giant Heart, space exhibits, and hands-on activities were our favorites. Everything was well organized, clean, and the staff was friendly and helpful. If you’re visiting Philadelphia with family, this place is definitely worth adding to your itinerary. Highly recommended!

What to know before visiting Philadelphia

What to do in Philadelphia year-round

Philadelphia's top experiences centre on Museums, Tours and Attraction passes, with Events & shows also appearing in booking data. Museums lead the way for culture-seekers, while guided Tours suit visitors who want local context; Attraction passes bundle multiple highlights into one purchase. Demand on Klook peaks in July and drops to a trough in March, so the city's rhythm moves from a busy summer high to a much quieter spring. Use that pattern to decide whether you want lively summer streets and fuller programming or calmer museum visits — choose between peak-season atmosphere or quieter off-peak enjoyment. Based on Klook booking data.

Best months to visit and price patterns

July is Philadelphia's busiest month on Klook while March is the quietest, and prices show a different pattern: typical prices fall in August and rise to a high in September, so crowd levels and prices don't exactly match. That means the clearest value months are August for lower typical prices with still-busy summer energy, and March for the smallest crowds though not the lowest median price. For peak-season atmosphere pick July; for lower prices and fewer people aim for August or March. All figures come from Klook booking data.

Month Demand Level Typical Price
January Quieter than usual PHP 5055
February Very quiet PHP 3508
March Very quiet PHP 5292
April About average PHP 3211
May Busier than usual PHP 3508
June About average PHP 2735

August Busier than usual PHP 2319
September About average PHP 8622
October Quieter than usual PHP 6541
November Busier than usual PHP 5946
December About average PHP 3925

Demand is bookings in that month compared with a typical month, from historical Klook booking data, grouped into the demand levels above; typical price is the median paid on Klook in that month; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, July 2025 – June 2026.

Tips for travellers from the Philippines

Most travellers from the Philippines book quite close to travel — bookings are typically made about 1 day ahead, with the earliest planners booking around 4 days out. That short lead time makes last-minute flexibility easy, but in July — the city's peak month — booking earlier still pays. Use Klook to lock in museum tickets, tours and attraction passes quickly when plans firm up; many experiences are available at short notice yet popular dates fill first. Recommendations and figures are drawn from Klook booking data.
