Overview
Join this exciting “Rocky” movie locations tour and visit several iconic sites that were featured in the legendary franchise.

Leave the driving to your local expert guide as you explore the neighborhood that Rocky called home. You'll see his apartment from the first movie, and the building that served as Mighty Mick's Gym.

Head down into South Philly, where you can jog up the Italian Market, ask for a blessing at Father Carmine's church and glide past Adrian's Restaurant.

Drive out to historic Laurel Hill Cemetery to pay respects to Adrian and Paulie at the headstones that were made for the films.

The final highlight will be the famous “Rocky” steps in front of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, where you will also find the giant bronze statue of Rocky himself! Scale the steps for a breathtaking view of the city before striking a pose with the statue for an amazing photo op.

Throughout the tour, you and your guide will share Rocky trivia and recite all the quotes word for word.

What To Expect
1
Rocky Statue
In a tour full of highlights, the one at the top of the list is of course the iconic statue and steps that have defined what the Rocky films are all about. Do your best Balboa impression in front of his statue, which may be the most photographed statue in Philadelphia. Then make sure to do some stretches before running up the 72 most famous steps in the city and strike your victor’s pose! The view of the city from on top of the steps is magnificent, and your guide will be there to capture it all on your phone.

Philadelphia Museum of Art
The Philadelphia Museum of Art, one of the largest art museums in the United States, showcases a vast collection spanning centuries and cultures. Made famous by the iconic "Rocky" films, its front steps, known as the "Rocky Steps," have become an iconic symbol of the city, where visitors often recreate the triumphant run made by Sylvester Stallone's character, Rocky Balboa
3
Italian Market
One of America’s oldest and largest outdoor markets was the scene of Rocky’s famous montages as he trained to face Creed. Drive up the road that he ran, past the wonderful shops and fruit vendors, and past Pat’s King of Steaks, where Gazzo gave Rocky some money for expenses. Maybe even grab a steak here if time allows.
4
Laurel Hill Cemetery
This peaceful and scenic cemetery overlooking the Schuylkill River is the resting place of Rocky’s beloved Adrian and Paulie. Pay respects to these characters in front of the real stones that were made for the movies, and your guide will lead you to the spot where Rocky sits on his wooden chair and reflects while reading the newspaper.
