If you're looking for an authentic window into Lancaster's Amish community, this tour company delivers something genuinely special. The standout feature across nearly every review is the exceptional quality of the tour guides, with Moses, Dale, and Mike mentioned repeatedly by name for their deep knowledge and engaging storytelling. What makes these tours memorable isn't just driving past farms – it's the genuine immersion experience, particularly the home visits where guests share meals with Amish families. People rave about the food being far better than expected, and the warmth and generosity of hosts like Mary and Martha leave lasting impressions. Whether you're choosing the Amish Immersion tour, the Sweet and Savory option, or even their Lancaster History and Craft Beer tour, guests consistently describe these as highlights of their entire vacation. The tours run about three hours and include countryside drives with plenty of Q&A opportunities. Guides bring personal connections to the area and often teaching backgrounds, which shows in how well they explain the culture and history. There's one notable hiccup worth mentioning: a guest experienced a 45-minute delay without communication from the company, despite multiple attempts to reach them. The tour guide was apologetic, but the office never responded, which feels at odds with the otherwise stellar service. That said, it appears to be an isolated incident in an ocean of glowing feedback. Most visitors walk away not just satisfied but genuinely moved by the respectful, educational approach to sharing Amish life with outsiders.
This was a wonderful tour. Moses Colon was excellent in his knowledge of everything about the tour. He is very personable, and interacted really well with all the people on the tour. We will recommend this tour to everyone we see, and have them ask for Moses as their tour guide. It was very enjoyable!
