Phil was a fantastic tour guide. Visited from New England and fell in love with Lancaster all over again. Having been from Lancaster I thought I knew everything there was to know. Phil showed us so many hidden gems from Lancaster city throughout the rolling Amish hills. Phil was able to break all the Amish myths my boyfriend had about Amish Mafia, education, buggy’s, shunning, and voting.
Know before you go-
Dress for the weather. You can leave your coat on the van.
The farm we visited was super tidy so you won’t need to worry about “road apples”
Bring your questions! Phil knows a ton about the area and culture and it a wealth of knowledge.
Bathrooms are available along the way
Most restaurants are closed on Sundays. Ask Phil for suggestions of places that will be open.
Don’t miss out-
The rolling hills/fields had cute farm dogs, kids driving farm equipment, and peaceful farm animals grazing in the fields.
Sample the ice creams!!!! They’re amazing and you won’t want to miss out.
Take photos of the places you go! These photos will last a lifetime. It truly is an awesome authentic experience.
