This Amish Experience-only tour combines the Civil War’s Underground Railroad and the Amish culture, all into a singular moving and memorable experience.
Underground Railroad Encounter
Visitors are often unaware of the importance Lancaster County played in helping slaves escape from their “masters.” In an experience fraught with emotion, meet one of these slaves (portrayed by a local actor) and learn of his quest for freedom. Our trip back in time to pre-Civil War America includes a visit to the graves of those who were “conductors” on the Underground Railroad in Lancaster more than 150 years ago.
The Amish Experience
The second half of this tour has your step-on guide taking you on a drive thru the farmlands, touring the nine-room Amish Country Homestead, and then introducing you to the dramatic Amish Experience Theater presentation of "Jacob's Choice."
