We enjoyed the Amish bus tours and the stops along the way at Amish farms and a wine tasting made things even more interesting. Our guide for the Amish farmhouse and the bus tour did a great job talking about Amish life and answering questions. The theater presentation was interesing and different. A great way to introduce us to the Amish at the start of our visit to the area. |

We really enjoyed the package, the only comment I would make is not to bring young children with you. The wine tasting, though interesting is not appropriate to bring children to. Not because of the manner in which it was presented, but because young children seemed to be irritating to other guests, not by being loud, but simply from squirming. I think it should be clear that this is an adult activity and do not bring children under 5 with you. |

It was very informational. I got to learn so much about the amish community that i never knew before. It help put to rest the questions that i had about the amish way of life. |

Eliminate the wine tasting |

I enjoyed the theater and the house tour and most of the bus tour. However, I didn't think the wine tasting was an appropriate stop, both because there were children on the tour and because there are always people who do not drink. I don't mind the stops for shopping and the farm was interesting, but either shorten the tour and charge less or add a buggy trip. |

Great insight into the Amish way of life |

Going through the Amish farm house gave us interesting details about the day to day life of an Amish family. We really enjoyed the stop that our bus tour made at the Amish farm. The opportunity to talk to the farmer and ask questions was very meaningful. |

The tour was interesting and informative. Our seven year old daughter was fascinated by the amish culture as we were. We had many opportunites to view amish families in their horse and buggies. The movie was fascinating. It depicted the amish world and the struggle one faces to choose the amish lifestyle very well. All of the tour guides were knowledgable and able to answer all questions.
One minor opinion: The wine tasting at the end of the tour was completely unecessary and had nothing to do with the amish people/world. It was geared for sales of a local winery only. |

I went on the "Amish Experience Tour" with my mom, sister, nephew, and niece. We all found the tour to be interesting, informative, and enjoyable.
I picked up the tab for the tour, so I'm supremely qualified to say, it was well worth the money. |

I am very interested in the Amish people and their lifestyle, so this tour was excellent, it provided the bus tour, the movie, house and stops around (wine tasting, bakery, etc). For the price, it was definitely worth it cause to do these activities without being familiar with the area would have been very difficult. I recommend this to anyone interested in experienceing Lancaster without having to do much of the work. |

This package was a great deal. I had a great time going to the cannery, the farm and the winery. I learned a lot about the lives of the Amish and the tour guides were very friendly and informative. |
