WILMINGTON – The Greater Wilmington Convention & Visitors Bureau has launched the Brandywine Treasure Trail Passport again, giving discounted access to 12 attractions across the Greater Wilmington area.
An individual passport is $49, representing a savings of up to $148. A family passport, covering two adults and up to three children ages 17 and under, is $99. It represents a savings of up to $615. Passports are valid from May 24, 2025 to October 31, 2025. This gives users five months to explore the attractions at their own pace.
Jennifer Boes, executive director of the Bureau, said, “The passport is designed to inspire visitors and locals alike to explore more of our incredible region. By experiencing the charm and richness of Greater Wilmington, we hope they’ll not only take advantage of the savings but also develop a lasting connection—one that keeps them coming back time and time again, even after every page of the passport is filled.”
The discount-priced passport is available for purchase at visitwilmingtonde.com/passport and at the Bureau’s Visitor Center, 920 Justison Street, Suite 5 on the Wilmington Riverfront. The passport, available in print and digital formats, can also be purchased at most participating attractions. Passports are valid for one use at each attraction.
