5.00Book this tour! I honestly cannot compare it to other Amish farm tours but this one is awesome. We were able to physically walk around the farms, into their barns (not their homes), meet a member or two of the Amish families, see the beautiful craftmanship of the carpentry of how those barns were built, how they work and how they run. Moses made everything very interesting and I learned a lot! And, the ice cream was heavenly! And, buy the honey mustard pretzels at the ice cream place!!! They are heavenly too!! TIP!!!---Bring enough cash because we bought a gorgeous handmade birdhouse and a child's bracelet at one of the farms. (totally optional and NO pressure!!) Plus, Moses deserved a good tip but we were a little short due to our shopping!!! So , plan better than me!!! Thanks again for understanding Moses!! You were great!

4.00Very informative but quite long (over three hours). Our guide, Moses, was friendly and patient. Just be ready to spend a long day traveling from farm to farm. If you are interested in Amish/Mennonite life and no nothing about it, this is a great place to learn.

5.00Our tour guide, Moses did a fantastic job sharing the history of how the lives of Martin Luther, Menno Simons, Jacob Ammon, and William Penn were all connected! His wealth of knowledge and back stories made it so enjoyable. The stop at the farm where the movie Witness was filmed was amazing - especially after watching it the night before! There were also visits to get homemade Amish ice cream and to a working dairy farm, which were both very enjoyable as well. Would recommend this experience to friends and family!

5.00Our tour guide Dale is wonderful! He’s incredibly knowledgeable about Amish history and culture, and gave us an in-depth introduction to the Amish way of life — from its very origins to the present day. The route was thoughtfully arranged, and the scenery along the way was absolutely stunning. We had the privilege of meeting some real Amish families and also enjoyed authentic Amish ice cream, which was absolutely delicious!
The interpreter is really...

5.00Our guide was incredibly knowledgable about the history of the Amish community and had a deep respect for the families who were willing to have us visit their beautiful homes. My daughter and I were blessed to experience such a culturally rich tour and loved meeting representatives of these families. We were reminded of how a connection to the land manifests an incredible spirit.
10/10!! Moses is exceptional!!

5.00My partner and I did the Unique Amish Immersion tour on March 13, and it was absolutely the highlight of our trip to Lancaster. Our tour guide Moses was phenomenal and so knowledgeable. The tour was around 3 hours and every moment was worth every penny. Moses created an incredibly welcoming environment and answered any and all questions we had during the tour. We visited a few farms and met a lovely family with the most adorable and friendly children. 10/10 recommend. We were lucky enough to be on a tour of three people, and it was fantastic. The intimacy of the tour was unbeatable and made for the best experience.
