Get in a festive mood with this 1.5 hour walking tour, brought to you by the historians and educators at Chester County History Center. Your costumed guides will take you to West Chester's early churches, department stores and cultural sites, learning about what the winter holidays meant to the people of West Chester from the late 1700s to the early 1900s. During the tour we'll stop at the world-famous Eclat Chocolates (“Best Chocolates in America” by Bon Appetit in 2012) for a sweet treat.
