Allow time for questions while on the bus. Bus needed a better step down system for entering and exiting the bus. We inderstood that the step was back ordered. So there were several persons who had difficulty with especially exiting. rent another bus until yours id fully functional or provide a warning about the difficulty

Thank you for your feedback. In response to your review, I would like to say that questions are always permitted while on the drive. Our guides are always willing to take and answer them. The van is fully functional but does have a bit of a high step into the side passenger entrance, which is why we always use a stool for passengers to have 2 steps in instead of one. That said, we take your comments seriously and have added an additional note to the description on this platform alerting potential guests who may have difficulty with the step up and down that this experience might not be appropriate for them.

Absolutely great. Our tour guide - Dale - was so knowledgeable and taught us so much history of the Amish people. Our host was Sarah and the food was wonderful.
