For Travel Planners and Group Leaders

St. Michaels was once a Colonial village known for oystering and shipbuilding. Its harbor and some homes date back to the mid-1600’s. Worth noting, it is home to the renowned Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum where you can immerse yourself in our maritime history. Come visit this picturesque harbor on Maryland’s Eastern Shore.

Any visit to the Brandywine Valley should begin at Hagley — what you discover here will put your entire trip into context. It is here that the du Pont family first settled in America, built their first home, and began the black powder manufacturing business that became the foundation for all the other du Pont enterprises in the world. The continuing legacy of Hagley and the early family can then be explored in the splendor of Winterthur, Longwood Gardens and Nemours.

An eclectic outing, you will enjoy a scenic train ride, a museum filled with nostalgia from generations past, the castle home of an American Archeologist and tile-maker as well as time to explore the shops and restaurants at the King of Prussia Mall.
