Journey back in time to historic Philadelphia in the days of George Washington and his revolutionary collaborators.

Kick off your experience at the beautiful City Hall and make our way to the historic district while exploring the catalysts to the war. At the famous Independence Hall, where you'll dive into the Declaration of Independence’s drafting, debating, and signing.

Explore George Washington’s legacy as a politician, general, and president. This leads you to the iconic Liberty Bell and the history behind its famous crack… and its status as an abolitionist symbol. Get to know the lives, museums, and homes of revolutionary figures like Ben Franklin, the diplomat, Benedict Arnold, the traitor, Thomas Jefferson, future president, and Crispus Attacus, American hero.

Continue your journey past the famous African American Museum, Franklin Square, National Constitution Center, and the Mint. Head over to the Betsy Ross House, and see the birthplace of the American flag! Finally, finish off your tour at George Washington’s church where you'll conclude fittingly at the Museum of American Revolution.
