What’s your favorite thing about Pittsburgh?

Here's what the locals have to say:

My favorite family adventure is PNC Park for a Buckos home game. As a parent it was great to see the smile on my son's face as he enjoyed his first nacho in the right field seats. —Beth B., Peters Twp

I love that Pittsburgh is Green! and I'm not talking about our green buildings, I love that every street is tree-lined,that there are parks and trails everywhere and you can find awsome trails inside the city limits. —Chris H., Murrysville

Look Up! Pittsburgh has these beautiful old buildings that are just amazing. If you don’t look up you will miss the best part. —John R., Edgewood

The Aquarium at the Zoo ...because they have fish as big as my kids. And now they have Polar Bears too. —Dena B., Pittsburgh

MoGoes tours offer a great opportunity to get out on the streets and explore a city. We give you the path, but you make the adventure by finding interesting things along the way. Here are a few tips to help you get the most out of your expedition:

1. Wear comfortable clothes, shoes and a hat. Tours involve 1-3 miles of walking and about 45 minutes outdoors so dress for the elements.

2. Leave any bulky or heavy personal items at home or in the car, after a few miles you might get tired of lugging all that stuff around.

3. Take lots of pictures along the way. Your camera phone is a great tool for snapshots, and it will help you remember your journey.

Be sure to stop at the restaurants and shops, see the attractions and take time to smell the roses. It's an adventure that can last the whole day!
