my wife and I had a wonderful time at independence hall. it was great to stand so near the spot where so many important decisions were made, in regard to the establishment of this country. the artifacts that were still present added some much to the tour of the building. We had a wonderful tour guide named Renee....

We reserved our tickets so we skipped the long line in the visitors center. Take time to take in what where you are...this is where our country's history began and so many of our forefathers stood...amazing!

While stepping in the same room that the founding fathers of our country gave me chills, the tour guide we got was boring in a surprisingly obnoxious way. He had a very squeaky voice and put half the tour group to sleep with his background speech before the actual tour (almost literally). I would suggest doing it but be warned...

What history! Philadelphia and in particular Independence Hall are wonderful! I think it is a must see for any American. The tour is a bit long, but I would do it again.

It looks just like the history books said. It was so nice to finally get there and to see it and touch it wow.

The park ranger was nice. Her descriptions were great for the kids and I was not bored either. Very open to any questions. I learned a lot. The whole tour only lasts about 45 min. I went with a 11 yr old boy and 5 yr old girl.

would go again in a heartbeat.Very interesting.The guys who do the doors,awesome.He made it fun.My children loved to see the Chair of George Washington. Wonderful experience

A must see if you are visiting Philly. Can't go without seeing it! My husband loves history and he had to see it. I really enjoyed it as well. You get your "groundings" by stopping here first.

Guides were enthusiastic and informative.

The meeting rooms were decorated with authentic period furniture and writing instruments. The hall is maintained and has stood the weather and stress of visitors over the years.

Even in the midst of 70 other guests, we found people were quiet and reverent, when visiting the room where the Declaration ...
