Each year the Bethlehem Garden Club schedules different bus tours to various botanical, historical and cultural sites.
Individuals interested in a trip should contact our bus tour director by the deadline noted below.
Our next bus trip will be to the Glen Foerd, Andalusia, and Pennsbury Manor Houses in the Philadelphia area on Thursday, October 8, 2026.
Built in 1850 and expanded and refurbished throughout its time as a private residence, Glen Foerd is currently home to an array of historic domestic artifacts, American and European art, and contemporary art installations.
Founded in 1795 by Philadelphia merchant John Craig as a summer retreat, his daughter, Jane, and her husband, Nicholas Biddle, Andalusia saw massive expansions of the gardens in the 1830s.
Pennsbury Manor is a reconstruction of William Penn’s country estate set on 43 picturesque acres along the Delaware River in Morrisville, PA. As the only site in the nation dedicated to preserving the historical significance of William Penn, Pennsbury Manor is here to bring the past into the present by telling the stories of the colonists, servants, enslaved people, and Native Americans who lived on this land.
The bus will leave Advent Moravian Church, 3730 Jacksonville Road, Bethlehem, at 8:00am, and arrive at Glen Foerd around 10am. There will be a guided tour of three mansions/gardens, buffet lunch at King George III, and free time. We leave the gardens for home around 4:30 pm.
The price of $132.00 for members and $136.00 for non-members per person includes the admission to the mansions, the guided tour, buffet lunch, roundtrip bus transportation, and driver gratuity.
