Philadelphia
Visit William Penn’s “City of Brotherly Love.” Philadelphia is synonymous with the Declaration of Independence, the United States Constitution, Independence Hall, and the Liberty Bell, along with Benjamin Franklin and Betsy Ross. Our country’s first capital was established here. The first fire company, first hospital, first library, and first post office were founded here as well.

Visits can be arranged to Lancaster County to visit an Amish farm and home. Travel to Valley Forge National Park, Washington’s Crossing, and Gettysburg National Cemetery are also available.
