For many, the staples of the college visit are the information session and the campus tour. But what about the off-campus tour?
That’s where our five tours come in. Combined, they provide a comprehensive path through Philadelphia, covering a wide range of neighborhoods, landmarks, green spaces and architectural styles. No matter how many times you’ve been to Philly, we promise you’ll learn something new and walk somewhere you’ve never explored. If you’re a first-time visitor, then you’ve come across the perfect introduction!
Philadelphia is a walker’s paradise, and those who are lucky enough to have a whole day free could easily experience more than one tour, with time for a meal or two along the way. We’re pretty sure that once you start walking, you won’t want to stop, so start downloading and then start exploring!

If you have any questions or comments about a tour, please email tours@onebigcampus.com. We always enjoy hearing how people enjoyed their explorations of the city, and how we might go about making the tours even better.
If you have any great digital photos from your walks, we’d love to post them on our site, for those campus visitors following in your footsteps. We look forward to receiving lots of feedback and photos from you this year!
