See What People Are Saying
"Kristen and her staff were very attentive to the needs of our group in terms of planning an excellent and unique experience for all of our [158] members. They developed a unique program for our group that highlighted the history of the Moravians and the city of Bethlehem. We had the opportunity to visit multiple buildings in Bethlehem in the company of extremely well informed guides.
All of the Historic Bethlehem staff were helpful, very knowledgeable, responsive to our requests and offered excellent suggestions to help enhance our meeting. The prices charged for all of our tours, building rentals, luncheon etc. was very reasonable and fell within our budget guidelines.
I would recommend the staff at Historic Bethlehem to anyone planning an event in Bethlehem."
