Philadelphia: Where History Meets Adventure

Discover. Experience. Learn.


“I love the dignity in the name Philadelphia, but at heart, we’re Philly”

-Lisa Scotaline

For U the Bell Tolls

Life, Liberty Bell, and the Pursuit of Cheesesteaks. Typically a 2-day add-on to a New York or Washington DC trip, the city of Brotherly Love has plenty to offer by itself. 

Our Philadelphia educational tours provide a perfect blend of history, culture, and cuisine for curious minds. 

Student trips to Philadelphia offer unforgettable opportunities to explore America’s roots and experience its rich and diverse culture. From touring Independence Hall to savoring the iconic Philly cheesesteak, every moment is a chance to learn and connect.

As Chef Peter McAndrews said, “New York is where people reinvent themselves; Philadelphia is where people DISCOVER who they are.”  This city invites students to engage deeply with the nation’s past while discovering new perspectives in its dynamic present.
