Founders in Philadelphia: Franklin, Jefferson, and a New Nation

After taking into account the interests of all those who replied to our survey, we’ve put together a really nice visit to Philadelphia for $1,500 per person. (Single supplement is $250.)

Here is what’s included in that price: 

• Four nights at the Independence Park Hotel. This establishment is a boutique hotel within the Best Western corporation. The hotel has only a few rooms with a king-size bed (those rooms cost $30 more per night); all the others are queen rooms, so if you require an extra large bed, you’ll want to book right away. Here’s the link to book and pay for your room. Book your room before March 15 to take advantage of the special rate I arranged.   

• Breakfast each day is included in the price of the hotel.

• A 3-day, all-inclusive, Go Philadelphia museum pass that you can use for entry into the sites we visit as a group and also when you are seeing Philadelphia on your own on Saturday afternoon.

• Admission to any site that is not included in the museum pass. 

• All meals, except lunch on Saturday, are included. (Alcoholic beverages are not included.) Most of the restaurants are offering a selection of entrees for our visit. 

• Transportation for sites beyond the historic district, will be arranged by Lisa and provided by Uber. 

In other words, the cost of the entire Philadelphia experience—apart from any optional activities you choose and lunch on Saturday—is included in $1,500.
