Transfer from the pier to the historic Old Town of Philadelphia. Here, history comes alive in this charming neighborhood boasting countless iconic sites.
On a walking tour, your guide will lead you past Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution were created.
Across the street is the Liberty Bell, an enduring symbol of freedom whose backstory is known by few, but its symbolic significance is recognized by all. You will learn about the famous Founders who called colonial Philadelphia home.
See the grave of Benjamin Franklin -- positioned streetside -- for a chance to pay your respects to this man of unmatched genius and ambition. Just down the street is the home of Betsy Ross -- the woman credited with creating America’s first official flag. Her story as an artisan and businesswoman deserves to be heard.
Marvel at the beautiful 18th-century architecture of Elfreth’s Alley -- the oldest continuously inhabited residential street in the Thirteen Colonies -- and the architectural red-brick masterpiece of Carpenters Hall.
Along the way, your expert guide will separate fact from fiction and lead you deep into Philadelphia’s unmatched history.
