Mercer Museum and Fonthill Castle
Doylestown, PA
Did you know there was a beautiful castle less than an hour away from the Lehigh Valley? Tour Fonthill Castle and grounds and check out Smithsonian affiliate Mercer Museum.

Easily one of the coolest trains you will ever ride on! Located in downtown Boyertown, you will want to give yourself extra time before your excursion to enjoy the local restaurants and shopping.

Peddler’s Village

This place is SO MUCH MORE than just shopping! Head to their Safari in the Sand party on Friday, July 25th and activities, a foam party, tropical food and drinks all set to the sounds of a steel drum band!
