Q&A

Q: What's the best time of year to do the Rocky tour in Philly?

A: Honestly, spring and early fall are the best times for the Rocky tour! The weather's usually mild, making it perfect for jogging up the steps and walking around South Philly. Summer can get pretty hot, especially if you're on the bus, and winter? Brrr! Might be cold for those outdoor spots like the Italian Market.

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

A: No age limit at all! Kids are totally welcome to join in on the Rocky adventure. It’s a fun way to get them interested in movies while exploring Philly. Just keep in mind some parts involve a bit of walking, so maybe bring a stroller for little ones.

Q: If the weather's bad, do they reschedule the tour?

A: Absolutely, they keep an eye on the weather. If it looks like a total washout, they’ll work with you to reschedule. Just be sure to check your emails or give them a call if it’s looking iffy before your tour day!

Just did the Rocky Balboa tour and it was AMAZING!

I took my dad on the Rocky Balboa tour in Philly last weekend and we had a blast! Our guide was super knowledgeable and it felt like we were in the movie. Getting to jog up the steps at the museum was a highlight for sure. The whole South Philly vibe was awesome, especially visiting Adrian's Restaurant! Can't recommend it enough for any Rocky fan.

Thinking about gifting the Rocky tour, any tips?

I'm considering getting this private Rocky Balboa tour for my boyfriend's birthday, but I wanna make sure it's worthwhile. I heard the guide makes it fun and informative but is it worth the price? Also, how many people can go along? Anyone with experience want to share?
