	Great activity Amish Farmlands SuperSaver Tour Package

	There is no other way to see any Amish life but joining this. It is a bit "touristy", but it doesn't but you in an awkward position of peeping into somebody's life.

	Very worthwhile tour. Provided lots of information as to how the Amish really live and do things. The tour guide was able to answer most any question you may have as to their lifestyle. Absolutely beautiful country. The house tour was very interesting as well and showed the "updated" Amish. The theater experience was presented in a very different way and helped you understand their lifestyle even better. The food at the restaurant was absolutely delicious and their soft pretzels were fantastic!!
	TERRIFIC TOUR!!!!!! Amish Farmlands SuperSaver Tour Package
	Sun, Apr 20 11:30 AM	LAURAJMCCANN	Female	40-49	Domestic Tourist(s)	Family Without Children
	MY HUSBAND AND I HAD A WONDERFUL TIME ON THE TOUR. IT WAS SO INFORMATIVE. THE BUS TOUR REALLY SHOWED A LOT. EACH PERSON WHO GUIDED THE TOUR DID A GOOD JOB OF EXPLAINING EVERYTHING. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS TOUR TO EVERYONE. THE ONLY PROBLEM WE HAD WAS AIR CONDITIONING DID NOT WORK IN BUS, BUT ONCE WINDOWS WERE OPENED IT WAS COOL ENOUGH TO BE COMFORTABLE. THANKS AGAIN FOR A GOOD TIME, AND PROFESSIONALISM.
	Perfect tour to take when you have a short time Amish Farmlands SuperSaver Tour Package

	We flew in for a short weekend, so had limited time in the area. The first day we took the bus tour- very interesting and our guide was very personable, knowledgable and willing to answer any questions we had. We chose to see the movie and tour the house the next day, Sunday, since the shops were closed on Sunday. They were flexible and allowed us to do that, even though we had been scheduled for Saturday. That way we were able to do some shopping on Saturday, and we went back to some of the places we had seen on the tour. The tour guide for the house was a different person from the bus tour- also very knowledgable and willing to answer any questions. We learned a lot about the Amish and the area, which was what we had gone for. We enjoyed the wine tasting as well. Would recommend the tour, and think the price is well worth it
	Somewhat disappointing but could have been great. Amish Farmlands SuperSaver Tour Package
	Sun, Apr 6 11:30 AM	LMurray975	Female	60-69	Domestic Tourist(s)	Group of Friends
	The only problem with our package is that we went on a Sunday. It would be helpful for others, I think, if it was made VERY CLEAR that there is absolutely nothing going on there on Sundays as it is the holy day for the Amish. This is something we did not know and, since we had only that one day, we were not able to see any of the people or visit any shops or see quilts. It was really disappointing after paying over $200 for our group. We also were left with so many questions about the life of the Amish such as how do they make money to live in such big houses if only some have skills. How can their children be prepared for our world when they end school at eighth grade? If carriages cost $7000.00 how do they all afford them. We would have liked to know more about those issues. Hopefully, some day we will have a chance to return to Lancaster on a week day and could enjoy more of the world of the Amish. Loretta Murray Nashua, NH

	Excellent and Very Informative Amish Farmlands SuperSaver Tour Package

	The tour was excellent. I have visited Lancaster county in the past, and I have taken other tours. I must honestly say that this was the very best time I ever had. The tour guide was very informative and very pleasant. I highly recommend using your serivces to anyone in the future, In fact, I will return again this spring for another tour. Sam
	Nice Tour but commercial Amish Farmlands SuperSaver Tour Package
	Sat, Mar 8 1:45 PM	runningj	Unspecified	Unspecified	Unspecified	Unspecified
	The tour driver was informative about the Amish and their lifestyle. We visited to Amish farms, both of which sold Amish gitt items to tourists, that was ok but I saw no reason for the stop at a Pensylvania wine tasting room other than a way for the tour operator to make extra money.. The wines were not good. In the package was a tour of a recreation of an Amish home. We enjoyed seeing the home and learning how the Amish live. The tour also included a multimedia presentation on the Amish religion, looking at the challenge of a 16 year old boy trying to decide which world to choose, Amish or English. The presentation needs updating but was ok.
	Interesting Tour for the Unitiated Amish Farmlands SuperSaver Tour Package

	Growing up near a lot of Amish and Mennonites, I already knew much of their culture and life. However, my wife learned a lot and enjoyed it. I was impressed by the van driver Joanne's interest in the participants having a safe and enjoyable day. Leon conducted a very interesting presentation in the Amish home and displayed some showmanship. The theatre "slice of life" was insightful. I particularly liked the visit to the farm while my wife and other ladies liked the various stops at country stores and "knick-knack" shops. The visit to Mt Hope Winery's Outlet was a plus. The young fellow there gave an education in wine tasting that was quite good. All in all, I say it was a nice introduction to this way of life for the uninitiated. I would enjoy more details of the history of the Reformation movement and Ana-Baptists in general and the schizms that developed between the followers of Menno Simons and Jacob Amman. May I suggest a map to pinpoint areas of Amish and Mennonite communities would help participants relate to Brethern in their own nighborhoods. Jed Minaya, Mechanicsburg, Pa
	Recommended improvements Amish Farmlands SuperSaver Tour Package

	I could have sworn that, on my first tour (a handful of years ago), the wine tasting part was much improved -- an actual wine tasting primer -- and not just a liquor store stop. For that matter, I could have done without all of the food and shopping stops; instead, stops at the local craftsmen shops (where crafts/repairs are actually made) would have been much more appreciated. It would have been better to have brighter projectors for the theatre; many of the images were very difficult to make out.
	Excellent Tour Amish Farmlands SuperSaver Tour Package

	The tour was very informative and educational even though I have read many Amish novels. We were surprised (as we had not been told) when the tour stopped at an Amish bakery and also at a quilt shop. The stop at the winery could have been dropped however as that had nothing to do with the Amish. The guides were very courteous and resourceful. The movie was very good as was the farm house tour.
	One of my most enjoyable learning experiences. Amish Farmlands SuperSaver Tour Package
	Sat, Dec 8, 07 11:30 AM	fmhyde	Female	40-49	Domestic Tourist(s)	Individual
	I highly recommend this tour. The driver/guide was not only well-informed but he has many Amish friends and could easily speak about them personally. I gained a deep and abiding appreciation for both the Amish life style and religion. The Amish home tour was very enlightening. The guide was pleasant and very informative. I liked the way she spoke and how she kept the large group of tourists engaged. The cinema was unexpected. I thought I was going to see a normal movie but it was truly a sensory experience. If you want to learn more about the Amish community this is definitely your best choice.
