Tour description
Philadelphia is where the United States was born: the city where the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were signed, and where the young nation first found its voice. On this walking tour a local guide leads you through the cobbled streets of Old City, bringing the revolutionary era vividly to life.
You will stand before Independence Hall, hear the story of the Liberty Bell, and walk the oldest residential street in America. Along the way you will discover Benjamin Franklin's city, colonial taverns and the birth of American democracy. Historic and surprisingly walkable, Philadelphia offers one of the most meaningful city tours in the country.
