Q&A

Q: What should we wear for the Vintage Thrift Quest? Is it a lot of walking?

A: You'll definitely want to wear comfy shoes since there's a good amount of walking involved, especially if you're visiting multiple thrift shops. Dress casually, and maybe layer up a bit because you never know how the weather will be in Philly! If you love vintage styles, feel free to express yourself through your outfit – it's part of the fun!

Q: Is there an age limit for this tour? Can kids join?

A: Kids are totally welcome! This tour is great for all ages since it's not just about thrifting – there are snacks and a chance to see cool street art too. Just make sure to keep an eye on them in the shops, as they could easily get lost among all the treasures! It makes for a fun family outing.

Q: If it rains, do they cancel the tour or reschedule?

A: They usually reschedule if the weather is really bad, but light rain won't stop the fun! Just check in with Aimee or Marisa the day before to see what the plan is. They know all the best spots that have cover in case of a drizzle. It’s a good idea to bring an umbrella just in case!

Just did the Vintage Thrift Quest Tour in Philly – Anyone else go?

I went on the Vintage Thrift Quest tour last weekend with my best friend, and it was such a blast! Marisa and Aimee are fantastic guides. We hit up some awesome vintage shops and ate the most amazing pastries along the way. They really know their stuff and gave us great tips on how to style vintage wear. I even found a killer jacket! Highly recommend it for anyone who loves thrifting.

Thinking of gifting the Vintage Thrift Quest tour – thoughts?

I'm considering getting the Vintage Thrift Quest tour for my sister's birthday. She loves secondhand shopping, and the idea of a guided tour sounds perfect! Just wanted to know if anyone’s done it and if it’s worth the price? Also, what are the must-have items they recommend finding on the tour?
