Philadelphia is known for its world class attractions – the Benjamin

Franklin Parkway museums, Avenue of the Arts theaters and concert halls, and the cradle of our nation’s history at Independence Hall and Independence National Historical Park. These are just a few of the treasures we want to share with you. So if you are looking for a convenient, low cost way to explore the City – hop aboard SEPTA – we can take you there.

Riding SEPTA Easy as 1-2-3 Step 1: Map Your Trip

Our map shows some of the most popular downtown visitor destinations and the SEPTA routes that serve them. Begin planning your Philadelphia adventure by locating an attraction on the map and finding the SEPTA routes at or near your destination. Then find where to catch your SEPTA ride. Bus stops are marked with route signs on poles or bus shelters and the front of the bus will tell you the route number. SEPTA has many bus routes but there are just a few that you need to know – 4, 16, 17, 21, 32, 33, 38, 42, 47, 48, 57. Buses are indicated on the map by route number with an arrow showing the direction of travel. In Center City look for the green SEPTA “lollipop” for the entrances to the Market Frankford and Broad Street Lines. Traveling to Philadelphia by plane? Take our Airport Regional Rail Line right from your arrivals terminal to any one of our Center City stations – University City, 30th Street, Suburban Station, or Market East.

Step 2: Buy Your Fare

Take advantage of our best travel value and purchase an Individual Independence Pass for $11.00 or a Family Independence Pass (good for one family of up to 5 people traveling together) for $28.00. Both provide unlimited travel on SEPTA buses, trolleys, subways, and regional rail for one whole day, for one low fare. Think of all the places you can travel worry free. The first time you use the pass, the operator will punch the month and day. After that just show your validated pass when you board other vehicles and continue on your way. The One Day Independence Pass is available at many locations, including SEPTA Headquarters at 1234 Market Street, SEPTA Regional Rail Ticket Offices, The Independence Visitor’s Center at 6th & Market Streets, major newsstands at downtown street intersections, or advanced sales online at shop.septa.org Paying cash does not offer the best travel value, but if you must, please remember a one way fare for the bus or subway is $2.00 – exact change only.

Step 3: Enjoy Your Ride

With fare in hand, sit back and let us be your travel guide. If you’re taking a bus, please signal the driver when you want to get off by pulling the cord above the windows or pressing the signal button. Please remember to exit by the rear doors. If you’re riding on the Market Frankford or Broad Street Lines listen for stop announcements or read the next stop display above the windows; on Regional Rail the Conductor will announce the next stop.
