Hi, I'm Dan and I've been in the travel business for over 50 years. One thing that has always inspired me is exploring our nations incredible history. To celebrate America's 250th birthday, we have created a new tour. It's a big milestone in a perfect reason to come together, explore, and have some fun. Celebrating America's 250th Anniversary Tour invites us to walk in the footsteps of our nation's founders. We're so fortunate to have all these beautiful places intact. 250 years later, we can still visit the exact sites. History can come to life. We will start in Boston, learn about Paul Reveres ride, go to Lexington and Concord. You can really feel how things looked and felt 250 years ago. And you can cross the North Bridge and that's truly where the first shot that was heard round the world was fired. And to be able to walk on those grounds and to see exactly where that happened to me, it just makes history come alive. A lot of people may not realize that in 1789, New York City was the capital of our newly formed. Country. And this is where George Washington was inaugurated as president. And after his inauguration, he worshipped at Saint Paul's Chapel, which stays right across the street from the new World Trade Center. And along the way, we get to share a meal in the same place where many of our nations founders once gathered. It's one of the oldest restaurants in the country in full of colonial charm. This is where George Washington hosted a thank you lunch for his offices. After the Revolutionary War, Philadelphia played such a major role in the birth of our nation as well. And you get to see Independence Hall on this tour, and you actually see the room where the Declaration of Independence was signed. You see the Liberty Bell, and all of these things are still very much intact. If you are a history buff, if you're really excited about our 250th anniversary, if you just love the whole East Coast and our story of the American Revolution and our founding of our country. Who will love this tour?
