      Fairmount Mansions of Philadelphia and German Feast

      Wednesday June 1, 2022

      Within the lovely grounds of Fairmount Park, the "Charms" - the houses maintained as historic house museums - served as the rural summer villas for well-to-do families during the eighteenth- and early-nineteenth century.  They are considered among the most significant architectural examples of this time period in the United States.  Their styles, furnishings, history and stories illustrate the culture and domestic lives of the time.  Today, these houses are preserved as treasured jewels of our collective past.  You will tour 2 of the homes after enjoying a wonderful Brah-Haus German lunch.

      A wonderful experience; much more than expected. Tour guide was excellent, timing was perfect. Just enough walking and riding and the walking was at nice pace. Beautiful trip. To make it better; Done know how this could have been handled, but the people sitting behind us were very loud and refused to stop talking. Tony did a good job in trying to quiet them down, but they started right up again. This is my 3rd trip with GSG and everything is usually organized so well, I was surprised at all the confusion and poor service at lunch. Got the feeling that they weren't expecting a large group. I was served after my companions plates were cleared. The French fries for our group were served after the sandwiches has been consumed. My coffee came just as we were ready to leave. The food was fine, but I wouldn't go there again. I hope that in the future, GSG would choose another restaurant.

      The trip was great. Tony the tour guide was so informative and funny. I especially enjoyed walking through Brooklyn Heights and seeing the architecture. Lunch at Juniors was delicious. Can’t wait for the next trip! Thanks Faith.

      I enjoyed this trip to Tropicana very much! It was enjoyable from start to finish! Traveling, our lunch at Carmine’s, and the show Menopause all were great! I’d do this again! Thank you Garden State Getaways!!

      We have been on numerous trips with Faith and they are always adventurous and well planned. This year started with the Kentucky Derby, Land and Cruise thru Alaska and the Mircle of Christmas in Lancaster Pa was a great way to wrap of the year. Can't wait for new adventures.
