Are you flying into one of northeast airports and renting a car?
Agree that Philly and NYC driving isn’t needed. But thb it is a hassle switching up at different points though, for longer drives like up to NH and Maine.
I’m an experienced driver though and like Philly mom I prefer driving when going as a family. Train isn’t cheap as pointed out. It all washes out, use SpotHero app for cheap parking spots in NYC. Book those as soon you have sleeping addresses cuz the further out you book, the cheaper parking rate you get like 55-80 for overnight parking. I would add in several days though, as your time frame is tight if you want to include DC and Maine. Your plans will become easier to look at once you firm up the college stops and lists of things you guys want to do in Philly and NYC.
Got lots of good eating and activities recs, as they’re all I recommend. Especially lizzywednesday with Philly.
