Very nice tour. Though we were very unlucky with the weather our guide tried to do everything to make the tour interesting. Failed to see the Constitution Hall.

If this tour was only Amish Country I would have given it 5 stars. There were four of us in our group and all of us thought the Philadelphia part of the tour was ok, seeing the first inhabited street was great but we would have much preferred to have less time there. Having said that though the Amish Country part of the tour was incredible and very interesting. We thoroughly enjoyed the buggy ride, our Amish driver Levi was hilarious and happily shared details of how they run their farms etc. The cookies that were made by the Amish children and available to buy on the buggy ride are AMAZING, we have never had cookies like it. Make sure you buy some. The Kettle Kitchen shop has some fantastic products to buy like jams and sauces. The scenery is like something from a postcard, we took so many photos. To sum up I would definitely do this tour again, just to go to Amish Country it was really really worth a visit.

It would be better if instructions on where to meet the coach were more accurate to save time looking for the right area. We enjoyed the first part of the trip it was informative and interesting to know more about the Liberty Bell etc. The very dissappointing part was when we went to the Amish country for our buggy ride. We were pushed into a cart which held 14 of us and taken out for 20mins up a dirt track we went passed two houses but saw no one. The only person we saw was a little boy who came out with his father to sell root beer and cookies which you felt obliged to purchase. We were then taken to a tourist shopping area which was a complete waste of time, I felt the whole Amish part was a complete waste of money and very dissappointing, I certainly would not recommend that part of the trip but would do the Liberty Bell part again, but not at that price
