Philadelphia Tours, Vacation Packages & Travel Experiences


  • Noted  for its rich history, Philadelphia is Pennsylvania’s largest city

As the birthplace of the United States, Philadelphia is an essential stop on any east coast tour as the meeting place where the Founding Fathers formed a new nation. Freedom abounds in “The City of Brotherly Love”, whose historic origins have been well preserved to provide visitors with an unparalleled look at America’s past. Explore the chambers of Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence was formed and signed, and visit the Liberty Bell, a symbol for Abolitionists, suffragettes, and Civil Rights activists alike.

Fast forwarding to the modern day, Philadelphia is most often associated with its famous cheesesteak, a must-eat consisting of thinly sliced beef and cheese on a crusty roll. The city’s culinary scene is also known for its fine dining, particularly its Italian fare. Enjoy the nightlife scene of Washington Square West and Midtown Village’s eclectic eateries and trendy restaurant concepts, giving you creative bites with top-level ambiance.

A feast for the eyes as well, the city is home to one of the country’s largest collections of public art, from the colourful murals and statues decorating downtown to the extensive selection of museums and galleries. You can’t leave the city without paying homage to the statue of Rocky Balboa, Philadelphia’s unofficial mascot, and ascending the Museum of Art’s “Rocky Steps” like a champion.
