Philadelphia and Princeton University Tour from New York City

Take a day to explore Philadelphia and Princeton University from New York City.

Nestled in Princeton, New Jersey, Princeton University is a distinguished private Ivy League institution. It's recognized globally as one of the leading universities, celebrated for its illustrious alumni network, rigorous academic curriculum, and naturally, its striking campus.

The campus itself is an absolute visual treat. It boasts a variety of expansive buildings and structures scattered across the pedestrian area. It's quite common to spot students and tourists alike capturing images of these architectural wonders.

When Philadelphia springs to mind, the Liberty Bell often takes centre stage. Initially housed in Independence Hall, it now resides in its own dedicated building: the Liberty Bell Centre. This hub brims with fascinating history about the Liberty Bell, including the bell itself.

Independence Hall holds historical significance as the place where both the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution were debated and signed. The Betsy Ross house, though small in size, holds a vast history, with Betsy Ross herself being credited with sewing the first American flag.

You'll also have the chance to sprint up the famous "Rocky Steps", Philadelphia has a deep affection for Rocky, making this spot a true landmark, with countless tourists queuing up to snap a picture and imitate their best Balboa impressions as they ascend the steps.
