Field Trip
Our tour of the Amish house and schoolhouse was very informative. Our guide, Tim, was super knowledgeable and funny. He kept the facts interesting for both the adults and children. The other employees were very friendly. We even got to meet brand new baby goats! I would recommend a visit here anytime!

An insight into Amish life
Very interesting and informative. Unfortunately we took the tour on a Sunday so the normal business of the community was not happening, but there was plenty of opportunity to see families going to and from church. The tour around the Amish House set was excellent and well presented by Martha.

A must if in Lancaster!
We went for a sheep sheering day. The sheerer was so kind and knowledgeable! My kids as a lot of questions and he was so nice! We also took a hayride, ride in the colored train, played with baby goats and walked around. It was a great day!

Escapade à Lancaster chez les Amish
Le forfait Prenium VIP est super. On parle français ils nous ont même prêté les documents traduits en français de ce que le guide anglophone disait. Génial!

Amish Immersion!
From beginning to end, the tour was amazing! Our bus driver could not have been more knowledgeable about the lifestyle and culture of the Amish. We rode for an hour and a half hearing about their customs and uniqueness, asking her questions, and stopping at 2 authentically Amish businesses where we bought crafts, soft pretzels, and fresh lemonade! After the bus tour, we visited the Amish farmhouse and village. The house tour was amazing. No one seemed to be in a hurry and there was always willingness to answer any questions. We took a hayride and explored the farm. All of it- excellent! We would do this again on our next visit!

Worth a stop!
We really appreciated our tour guide, Martha, and her local insights to the way of Amish life in Lancaster PA. She knew her facts both professionally and personally. It was very family, and dog, friendly! So worth a stop on your trip or a destination to plan for!
