Pleasant day and convenient way to reach Philly as well as have a taste of Amish life. Keep in mind, it is just a taste. Unfortunately the only interaction with Amish is with the driver of horse and buggy ride. It would have been nice to interact with more people to understand their way of life. Another suggestion: please equip the guide with a microphone. It would help hearing better and keep covid 19 distance, masks on etc.

A delightful journey! We visited the Independence Hall, the Statue of Rocky and the stairs (from the same movie), Amish Country. Our guide Brian was great! My native language is not English, and Brian speaks English perfectly for foreign tourists (he speaks clearly, not quickly) - I understood absolutely everything that he was telling.
