Description
Celebrate America250 with the Join, or Die! historic walking tour. Begin at Philly’s oldest tavern, stroll Society Hill’s cobblestone streets, and finish in Old City's Independence National Park.
*new for America250 with exclusive access points*
Discover a new Philadelphia walking experience that takes you beyond the usual stops and into Society Hill, Philadelphia’s most picturesque colonial neighborhood. Your 90-minute tour begins at the city’s oldest surviving tavern, where sailors, laborers, and locals once debated the future of the colonies over tankards of ale.
From there, wander quiet cobblestone streets, hidden alleys, and historic churchyards as you explore how merchants, artisans, printers, clergy, and everyday Philadelphians shaped public opinion in the escalating conflict between Patriots and Loyalists. Each stop connects directly to the real Philadelphia story from 1754 to 1776, offering a deeper look at the ideas, arguments, and neighborhood networks that influenced the road to independence.
Owned, operated, and guided by a local resident of Society Hill, this tour was created in response to seeing too many visitors funneled through the same five predictable sites. Instead, you’ll access over a dozen landmarks with direct ties to the revolutionary era, including exclusive vantage points and lesser-known spots rarely featured on other tours.
