The Trip to the Amish Village Tour was well worth a visit and the most enjoyable part of the tour i like was taking the exclusive bus tour visiting the real Amish Village country side area where you see large estate homes with farms at the backyard area and the huge corn fields and pumpkins that they grow on site. It's interesting to see how the Amish people live and learn about their culture and see them walking on the streets barefoot especially the ladies in their long black gown dress and also seeing them riding on their carriage horse to get around the village town area. Its a must to see if you decided to visit a good native country side area driving on a road trip and see the interior areas and antique shops as well. Highly recommend this to all my friends and business associates and especially for tourists visiting from overseas they will truly leave with a great memorable experience. I purchased the Premium package which includes the Bus Tour and the farm house which was well worth the price and the time spent on property.

I know there are many reviews from visitors who took the bus tour, but in our case, we were short on time and were looking for something simpler. If you find yourself in that same predicament, I would recommend the $12 house tour which we thought was a reasonable price for the experience we had. I do want to give a huge amount of kudos to the young woman who led the house tour. She was amazing! I know she must give that same tour hundreds of times a month, but her knowledge of the Amish people and their customs is impressive and she delivers the oral history in a fluid, easy-to-digest manner. Just a sensational tour guide who made the entire experience that much better. After the tour, you are let out in a mock village to walk around on your own. While that may sound kind of lame, it was actually quite enjoyable given the fact you walk through multiple areas where you can pet and feed many live animals including horses, goats, donkeys, and chickens. If you have kids with you, this will perhaps be the highlight of their visit. So, for the $12 price tag, the tour and walkabout were definitely worth it.

I went to the Amish village on a school field trip when I was younger and was so excited to revisit as an adult. I brought my husband who grew up in a different state and my in laws, so it was their first time learning about the Amish and their community. Every single staff member we encountered was all smiles and extremely nice, ready to help us with any questions. The bus tour was nice, mainly a scenic view of Lancaster, specifically going through the area where the Amish live. Even as someone who grew up nearby and had always seen the Amish, I still learned new things! The farmhouse tour was great as well, a good option for younger children who don’t have a very long attention span. I loved seeing the animals (and loved that they were all rescues) and was able to buy some hand made things to support locals. If you don’t know anything about the Amish community, or if you grew up next door, it is still 100% worth visiting for the day! Everyone is amazing! I would recommend going on a week day or Saturday, that way you could visit some local shops, or the Amish run restaurant that is practically across the street!
