historic square mile in the United States such as the Liberty Bell, Congress Hall, Franklin Court, Carpenters' Hall, the Betsy Ross house,
Christ Church, and Elfreth's Alley. Later this afternoon, we will check into our hotel for the next two nights, the 4-Star Kimpton Hotel
Monaco Philadelphia, located across the street from the Liberty Bell! Tonight dinner is include d. (L,D)
Day 2: Following breakfast, we visit the Eastern State Penitentiary Historic Site. Once the most famous and expensive prison in the
world, the sky-lit cells once held some of America’s most notorious crimina ls, such as Al Capone and ‘Slic k Willie’ Sutton. After our tour
we will travel over to One Liberty Observation Deck. Lunch is on your own before we take the tou r to th e to p . Located in the heart of
the city, you will want your camera as you travel 57 stories up, to view the ‘City of Brotherly Love ’ from Philadelphia’s tallest enclosed
observation deck. Tonight, dinner is included at City Tavern where we will be joine d by a few local tow n s peop le from 1776. From
dinner we proceed over to Independence Hall for an exclusive nighttime tour. We might even walk in on Ben Franklin, Thomas
Jeffers on and John Adams discussing the Declaration of Independ en ce! (B,D)
Day 3: After breakfast, we make our way over to the National Constitution Center. The Museum of We The People has three signature
attractions: Freedom Rising, a short the atre production that connects you with the US Constitution and its ongoing role in our lives; The
Story of We The People, a hands on exhibit on America’s constitutional history; and Signer’s Hall, where you can sign the Constitution
alongside 42 life-size bronze statues of the Foundin g Fathers. Our final stop will be at the Reading Terminal Market, one of America’s
largest and oldest public markets, housed since 1893 in a National Historic Landmark building, the Market offers an incred ible selection
of locally grown & exotic produce, locally sourced meats and poultry, plus the finest seafood, cheeses, baked goods, and confections.
