Greetings!

​

My name is Benjamin Buhl.  I've been a resident of Philadelphia and its nearby suburbs for over 50 years. I hold a bachelor's degree in English Literature, a master's degree in Fine Arts, and previously worked as a photojournalist for over 20 years.

As a tour guide, I have the pleasure of continuing my passion for photography, research, writing, and making meaningful connections with people through my private tours based in fact and driven by storytelling.  My goal for each tour is to bring history to life in a way that makes the past feel immediate and the present a shade or two more colorful.

​

A former docent at the University of Pennsylvania Museum and an experienced onstage storyteller, I invite you to shares my love of Philadelphia art, history and culture by joining me on this Benjamin Franklin Parkway adventure that's sure to confirm that truth is indeed often stranger than fiction.
