Great trip. onlly spoilt at the start with the female tour guide saying that that she had no booking for us. eventually another girl found our names on another sheet. She appologised but the first girl did not and it was rather embarresing to be put off the coach as she said that she did,nt have seats for us. we would have liked a little longer at the Market place as by the time we had stood in a long line for lunch we did,nt have much time to look at all the shops. Buggy ride was great fun with a lovely amish girl

This would have to be the worst tour we have ever had! Our party was 4 that helped make up the bus load. The guide was terrible he couldnt remember something about the rivers in the surrrounding area so told us to look it up in a book! and told us next to nothing during the journey to Philadelphia. The man organising the rides on the horse driven carriages was awful he was rude and yelled at people and made inappropriate remarks. The bus itself was dirty and old and we wondered whether we would even make the journey without breaking down. Our daughter is a travel consultant and has been told of our experience and will certainly never use this company that ran the tour again.

Excellent trip - only criticism was the Amish souvenir stop which was basically an everyday shopping mall, although it did sell great ice cream. The tour guide, Eli, was excellent.
