Our tour guide Kent was knowledgeable & informative about the Amish community. Thank you for being that bridge of “us” curious English people and the wonderful world of the Amish-well done!

During our tour, we met with a dairy farmer (while his sons milked the cows), a leather harness maker, and chatted with a family of six. Each visit lasted an hour, and we really had a chance to gain some understanding of how these folks work, live, and think. They were generally curious about "the English" as well, and asked quite a few questions to better understand us. There was nothing staged about our interactions, our hosts were all very genuine, thoughtful, engaged. I could not recommend this tour more highly, if you are interested in communicating with a few locals. I regret that we did not read a little more about the Amish history and culture in advance; this might have added even more to the experience.

It was a pleasure to meet Amish people in person and to have the possibility to get to know them and talk personally.
