Alliance française's Trolley Tour
Among the number of events we offer, Trolley Tours of French Philadelphia have been in great demand recently by our members. Spring is here and it is the best time to drive through Philadelphia and admire the sites designed by French architects or places where famous persons lived. We invite you to come on board with one of our wonderful guide and go back in time to discover the French side of the city of Brotherly Love!
We will discover with our guide the culture and history of the region relating to momentous events and prominent French individuals. The French presence in Philadelphia has contributed treasures and beauty to the cityscape, furnishing tangible evidence of the historical and philosophical ties between France and the United States - ties that date from the birth of our nation and continue to the present day.
Join us on Saturday, June 8 at 10am. We will board at 6th and Race Streets. The tour will only run if we have a full trolley (38 people). $25 per person.
Deadline is on May 24.
For more information and registration, please call us at 215 735-5283.
If you want to prepare your Tour, you can buy online the book French Philadelphia (in English) or Philadelphie à la Française (in French)!
