We have three small kids - ages 1, 4 and 6 - and on top of it all, we ended up being late. The guide was super understanding and accommodating - meeting us at the hotel, waiting while we installed car seats and not minding the occasional noise through our drive. The dinner was delicious and the hosts were incredibly friendly and sweet. It was a lovely experience. I'll just offer one warning - when you go in the winter, it is very dark and you don't get the lovely views along the drive. But that wasn't anyone's fault, of course. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and gave us a lot of information and answered a lot of questions for the entire ride.

The Amish dinner was exceptional. It was not only delicious but so educational and authentic. Phil and Anna Marie were the best tour guides and took care of everything. They are so easy to talk with and help provide the opportunity for one of the most unique family experiences possible. We did a combination of the different tours they offer and all of them were so much fun. Such a cool experience for adults and kids. We can’t thank them enough for a truly memorable day!

My family and I went on this tour right after Thanksgiving. It was a gift to my sister who came to visit from Canada. Our tour guide was Phil who was personable, friendly and very knowledgeable. The host family was very friendly, Sarah’s food was quite delicious. It was refreshing to see the children helping to serve the food and do other chores. I would definitely recommend this tour.
