Go beyond the typical tourist experience and discover the heart of Lancaster County through an authentic visit with a local Amish family.
Your experience begins aboard one of our comfortable vans as you travel through Lancaster County's breathtaking countryside.
Along the way, your knowledgeable local guide will share the history, traditions, and values of the Amish and Mennonite communities, offering insight into their origins, beliefs, and way of life. As you journey through picturesque farmland and quiet back roads, you'll gain a deeper appreciation for one of the most unique cultures in America.
The highlight of your experience is a visit to an Amish family's home, where you'll be warmly welcomed and treated to a traditional, home-cooked meal prepared by your Amish hosts. This isn't a restaurant or staged attraction—it's a genuine opportunity to gather around the family table, enjoy delicious homemade food, and engage in meaningful conversation.
Ask questions, hear personal stories, and experience the warmth of Amish hospitality while learning firsthand about daily life, family traditions, farming, education, faith, and the values that shape their community.
Following the meal, you'll have the opportunity to explore the property, offering another glimpse into Amish life and the beautiful rural landscape they call home.
