• Betsy Ross House - Our journey takes us back in time to the creation of the American flag!

Discover the deep roots George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and other Founding Fathers had in Philadelphia. Then, we’ll explore the events leading up to the revolt, including the catalyst: the Tea Tax.

It is where military revolts and battles against the British were planned. It is also where the Second Continental Congress took place, gathering votes from all the colonies. Ultimately, this is where the Declaration of Independence, and America, was brought to life. As we walk around this historic hall, we’ll learn about additional American figures like John Hancock, Patrick Henry, and John Adams, and their contributions to the new nation. We’ll also understand what this Independence Hall represented to colonial Americans and what it represents to modern Americans today. We’ll also check out George Washington’s statue out front and dive into his backstory.
• West Washington Square - At the corner of historic Washington Square, we’ll glimpse where it all began: the site of the First Continental Congress. We’ll explore the consequences of this historic conference before approaching the iconic Independence Hall.

As we walk through the museum, we’ll also uncover the layers of his personality, learning about his vast knowledge and diverse interests. Then, we’ll shift to the anti-hero to Franklin’s hero: the traitor Benedict Arnold. As we continue to walk, we’ll learn all about what Arnold planned to do and how.

• Declaration House - Then we’ll head over to another unique historic home: the Graff House. This is where Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence, and where Ben Franklin helped him edit it. Walk in the footsteps of these earliest inklings of American freedom as you pass by this site! Plus, we’ll take this opportunity to learn about Thomas Jefferson and understand his life and contributions towards American independence.
• The African American Museum in Philadelphia - Philadelphia’s history may be all about independence and freedom, but that didn’t apply to African-Americans! As we pass this wonderful museum, we’ll continue to explore slavery and its impact on early America. We’ll also learn about the historic contributions of African-Americans like Crispus Attucks and others.
• Franklin Square - Our journey into America’s past then brings us to Franklin Square, where we can rest up and catch up on everything else that Ben Franklin did – other than driving independence of course! We’ll learn about his many books, ideas, and of course… experiments!
• Bolt of Lightning. . . A Memorial to Benjamin Franklin - That brings us to this gigantic memorial to Franklin’s most beloved discovery – electricity! Here we’ll explore what exactly Ben Franklin was discovering, why he wanted to try, and how exactly he planned to do it!
• National Constitution Center - Next up, we’ll pass by the National Constitution Center. Just like with the Declaration of Independence, we’ll learn about how the colonists gathered here in Philadelphia to formalize their union into a concrete nation: the United States of America.

• Elfreth’s Alley - This brings us to Elfreth’s Alley, the modern Instagram hot-spot of Philly and the historic origins of this great city. As the very first downtown, Elfreth’s has seen generations of changes but has remained as quaint and colonial as ever!
• Christ Church - We’ll then walk over to historic Christ Church, where George Washington, Betsy Ross, and plenty of other American revolutionaries worshipped. We’ll pass by the Church, diving into its historical significance and admiring its soaring architecture.
• Museum of the American Revolution - That brings us to the Museum of the American Revolution! Our journey ends near here, allowing you the opportunity to step inside if you didn’t get quite enough revolutionary history already!
