This tour takes a deeper look at one of America's most influential Founding Fathers through the historic streets of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Explore Benjamin Franklin's personal life, relationships, and famous alter ego Richard Saunders, better known as Poor Richard, while discovering his remarkable role in transforming 13 separate colonies into the United States. Along the way, hear how Franklin influenced pivotal moments in American history, including the French and Indian War, the Second Continental Congress, and the Constitutional Convention.

As the only person to sign all four major founding documents of the era, Franklin played a unique role in the creation of the United States, and this small-group Philadelphia walking tour explores his connection to each. The experience is stroller and pet friendly and conveniently located near public transportation, though it is not wheelchair accessible.
