Frank Lloyd Wright & the Laurel Highlands Full Day Tour

Frank Lloyd Wright is known as the creator and expounder of “organic architecture," where buildings harmonize with their inhabitants and their environment. Near Ohiopyle, (70 miles southeast of Pittsburgh), in the Laurel Highlands, are two notable residences that he designed: Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob. Kentuck Knob was declared a National Historic Landmark, while Fallingwater, his crowning achievement in organic architecture, was also listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On this tour, we will depart Pittsburgh to see both of these residences, and depending on ticket availability, we could even enjoy guided visits to them. While in the Laurel Highlands, we will also visit Ohiopyle State Park. The rushing waters of the Youghiogheny River flow through the park where you'll see adventurers engage in white water rafting or kayaking. We'll also stroll along the Great Allegheny Passage, a rail trail that begins in Pittsburgh and stretches to Cumberland, MD and onward to Washington, DC.
