Philadelphia and Amish Country Day Trip
Set off on a full day-trip from New York to Philadelphia and enjoy a guided tour of its historic district followed by visiting Lancaster County, home of the Amish people and take an authentic Amish buggy ride through the countryside.
Itinerary
The air-conditioned coach departs from central Manhattan at 7am and will take you through New Jersey and the charming Pennsylvania countryside. After a few hours’ drive you will get to Philadelphia.
Follow your English-speaking guide through the city’s historic town and discover its most emblematic sights and monuments, including the Liberty Bell, an iconic symbol of American independence. The tour also includes a visit to Constitution Square and Constitution Hall. Next, enjoy a panoramic tour of the city where the Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776. Admire Benjamin Franklin Parkway and Elfert’s Alley (the oldest street in the United States).
After a thorough visit of Philadelphia’s city center, hop back on the bus and admire the famous Rocky Steps and then relax while you drive to your next stop, Lancaster County, home to the oldest Amish settlements in the country. Upon arrival, you’ll have time to savor a nice meal at a typical Amish marketplace and then take an Amish buggy ride through the countryside and learn how these families live without electricity, running water, mobiles and appliances.
Leave behind the remarkable Amish people and head back to New York City. You’ll get to Manhattan in the evening.
