We absolutely loved this experience! Our guide, Steve, is very knowledgeable and shared a lot of history of Amish culture with us. We’ve learned so much on the tour. Sarah is a great host - food was excellent (and definitely save room for dessert!!) she even played harmonica to us. The whole experience couldn’t have been better. We highly recommend this tour!

This is a once in a lifetime experience. While we were finishing our tasty meal, the children came home early from school--treat to experience. Everyone was welcoming. Mike, our guide, gave us a very good understanding of the Amish life.
