We absolutely loved this tour! Our guide, Sandy, was super knowledgeable and informative which made the bus tour extra interesting. We liked having a 14-passenger van instead of a big bus. Our Amish host, Emma, was so nice and the meal was delicious! It was nice seeing the house and farm and learning more about the Amish.

My husband and I were joined by 2 other couples and we were immediately impressed with the van and the ear pieces we were given so we all could hear Mark (our guide) give a thorough talk about Amish and Mennonite history. He was open to questions which we were all full of. Once we got there the couple and their 2 young children were very welcoming and the food was fantastic and plentiful and then they gave a tour of their farm and met their horses. We highly recommend this tour.
Thank you for your kind review! We're so glad you enjoyed your time with Mark and found the tour informative and engaging. It's wonderful to hear that your Amish hosts were welcoming, the meal was delicious, and the farm visit was a memorable experience. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you again soon!
I took the tour that included a meal in an Amish home. We were treated to a delicious home-cooked meal at Sara Fisher’s home (meatballs, pot roast, new potatoes, macaroni and cheese, bread, salad, peas, beets, and strawberry pie). Many of the vegetables were out of her own garden. It was interesting to get to see inside an Amish home. She was very friendly and answered our questions about Amish customs, and even played the harmonica for us ! Our tour guide was very friendly and informative regarding Amish history and customs. Upon returning from the meal, I hopped back in the van and took the Amish Immersion tour, where we stopped at several Amish businesses and farms. I had taken this tour two years ago and had enjoyed it so much that I wanted to do it again. I would definitely recommend either of these tours !
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your meal with Sarah Fisher and had the opportunity to experience Amish hospitality firsthand. It sounds like the home-cooked meal, time spent learning about Amish customs, and even the harmonica performance made for a truly memorable visit! We're also delighted that you enjoyed both tours and chose to return for the Amish Immersion Tour after such a positive experience two years ago. Hearing that guests come back to tour with us again is one of the greatest compliments we can receive. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back for another Lancaster County adventure in the future!
