11 nights. United States of America, Canada

Day 1

philadelphia, pennsylvania

Departure: 16:00

Philadelphia is the biggest city in the state of Pennsylvania, the second biggest city on the East Coast of the United States, and the fifth most populous city in the United States. It's situated in the North-eastern United States along the Delaware and Schuylkill rivers, and it's the only consolidated city-county in Pennsylvania. At Franklin Court, we come across the Christ Church Burial Ground, another well-known landmark, where Ben Franklin and four other signers of the Declaration of Independence were laid to rest. The Congress Hall was the residence of the first Congress. In addition to this, George Washington and John Adams were inaugurated here, and the Bill of Rights was ratified right inside. Philadelphia's most famous attraction, the Liberty Bell was rung to mark the hearing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. The Bell weighs 2,000 pounds, which might not be obvious just by looking at it. Philadelphia is a fantastic city to visit. It's welcoming and steeped in history and has a great blend of old and new and of historic and modern. There are plenty of sites, restaurants, clubs, and museums to keep you occupied, along with several open space parks scattered throughout the centre and, of course, the rivers, which contribute to the tranquillity of this lively city.

Situated on the banks of the St. Lawrence River, Quebec is a town with good looks and an undeniable French flair. It's got all the attractions you can think of, museums, arts and culture, sports, the great outdoors and it is the only city in North America with its original city walls. Quebec City's main sight is the Old Town, known as Haute-Ville, which is surrounded by a stone wall built by both French and British armies. The Citadelle is the largest British fortress in North America. At 10 in the morning is when the changing of the guard ceremony takes place. The absolutely beautiful Chateau Frontenac is a Quebec City icon. Terrasse Dufferin is a Boardwalk situated alongside the Chateau Frontenac and offers a great view of the St. Lawrence River. Quartier Petit Champlain is a neighbourhood located in the Old Lower Town. It is quite picturesque, especially when viewed from the Breakneck Stairs. The narrow cobbled streets are lined with small shops and cafes. It's a really fun neighbourhood to explore with a camera in hand. The Basilica Notre Dame de Quebec is the oldest church in the Americas north of Mexico. The Museum of Civilization is a great place to learn about the Aboriginal peoples of Quebec. One can't come to Quebec City and not catch a street performance. The city celebrates its performers and you'll often find acts taking place in the town square and parks. Grab a seat for some live entertainment and don't forget to leave a tip at the end.
