    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.

       

    Let's join us for 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. Do not miss this event, register now!

    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)!

    Immersion Courses represent six hours of intense work focused on conversation with reviews of grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation.
    Four levels of classes are offered on the same day: beginner, basic, intermediate and advanced.
    If you have never had French before your level is beginner.

    If you are enrolled in a class at the Alliance Française, you can find your level easily:
    101-102 = beginner
    103-106 = basic
    201-206 = intermediate

    If you have never taken an immersion or regular class with us, and you are not a beginner, you will need to take a placement test to find your level. The placement test can be taken online (you can find the link on the courses page of our website) or you can call our office (215-735-5283) or stop by our office and take the placement test in person.

    Coffee or tea will be waiting for you at your arrival!

    The price is $150 and includes materials and lunch.
