Robert gave you the straight stuff. There are several close. I personally used the Autopark at Olde City garage. Do not believe you will find any free parking close by. However there is a SEPTA station close if you park elsewhere and come in by public transportation. Also, city tour buses (double decker commercial), start and stop at Independence NHP, so if you want to see more of the city with a "hop on, hop off" tour, you can include your visit in that.

Yes the Liberty Bell isn't inside Independence Hall; it's in a separate building across the street that doesn't cost or require tickets. The tour is of Independence Hall only.

My guess would be in the winter. Some of the tour is outside and some is inside but none of it is heated. I know I would not choose this time of year.

Thanks, it's right in the city but if you see the map on the side, it shows Coatesville, PA if you browse the "browse nearby" when you are visiting Coatesville or the area. If you filter by attraction, it shows Liberty Bell in wrong location. How do we report this to TripAdvisor?

We couldn't get tickets for the tour either but we were still able to go round some of the premises and museum freely, this was late afternoon but i cannot recall the exact time - good luck

yes.

To Eastern Penitentiary, you can by tickets there without problem and parking stays at the left side.(Adult tickets $16 and parking $8 per 2 Hours) Regarding Independence Hall, the tickets are free and distributed at visitor center on the opposite side of independence hall, however, it is distributed for specific time ahead. There is also public parking available.

Its a long walk. Subway or Uber is a better option. Parking near the Terminal Market is tight. At Terminal Market try the Bassetts Ice Cream-oldest ice cream stand in America and its really good.

Between an one hour and two hours,Tours are shorter during the busy season it seems and they seem to spend a little longer with you during the off season .Dont forget there are some other buildings in the same complex to tour. One of the buildings is a self guided tour.Please dont forget Liberty Bell is right there to but the line to see it is quite long sometimes.Please don't forget to reserve your tickets online early ( 1.50 fee) they are free otherwise.

We enjoyed our stay at the Sofitel. It's a great location and beautiful hotel. There are several great options though.
