Philadelphia & Lancaster County, USA

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania's largest city, is one of America's most historically rich destinations — home to Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, and the birthplace of both the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. Its vibrant neighborhoods, world-class art museums, and legendary food scene (including the iconic cheesesteak) draw millions of visitors each year. Just an hour west lies Lancaster County, the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch Country, where Amish and Mennonite communities maintain traditional ways of life amid rolling farmland and covered bridges. Together, the two destinations offer a compelling mix of urban culture, revolutionary history, and a rare glimpse into one of North America's most distinctive rural cultures.

Self-Launched Philadelphia & Amish Country Day Trip from NYC

A DIY version of Empire Vacations' one-day NYC-to-Philadelphia-and-Amish-Country coach tour. Instead of a 6:30am group bus with multi-language guides, you take Amtrak or a budget bus from Manhattan to Philadelphia, walk the Independence National Historical Park sights for free, then use SEPTA regional rail plus a local Lancaster shuttle or buggy operator to reach Amish farm country in the afternoon. All entrance-free sights, self-paced, and roughly a third of the tour price.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Philadelphia & Lancaster County, USA yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn the first 20 seconds of a local dance, then perform it, uninvited, at every bar you visit."
