Pittsburgh's story comes alive on this specially designed, narrated tour of one of America's most livable cities. Fun stories about prominent Pittsburghers, both past and present, punctuate the narration on historical landmarks, corporate headquarters, fascinating architecture, and important events.
Our tour winds through the Golden Triangle focusing on significant developments and statuesque buildings within this compact and defined area.
Nationality Rooms
Tour the world through architecture and decor as 30 classrooms reflect the Old World heritages of Pittsburghers. The Nationality Rooms are expressions of timeless human values. In these rooms themes are rendered in wood and glass, iron and stone, fabric, color, and words.
All rooms may not be viewed during the school year, because classes are held in them.
Duquesne Incline
On a clear day, you can see a spectacular panoramic view of Pittsburgh and its three rivers. Ride up to the incline's observation deck in a 100 year old incline car. Historical exhibits and a gift shop in the waiting room entertain between rides.
Fallingwater
This extraordinary home was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and is dramatically centered on a waterfall, running through the home. It has been voted the most architecturally significant building in America.
There is considerable walking during the tour beginning with a 1/4 mile walk from the visitor's center to the house. While in the house, there are numerous stairs and once the tour begins there is no place to sit down. A van service is offered to and from the house for those that have difficulty with the walk. Those that find the tour too strenuous may choose to tour the first floor only and return to the visitor's center where they may view a video of the upper floors of the house.
Comfortable walking shoes are a must!
