Farmlands Tour

For 65 years, the cornerstone of “The Amish Experience” has been the 90-minute guided Amish Farmlands Tour, taking you deep into the heart of the oldest Amish community in the world where you’ll marvel at some of the most beautiful farmland you’ll ever set eyes upon. These are the same fertile fields that attracted and have kept our Amish neighbors here for over 280 years. Our local expert Amish Country Tours guide answers your questions while calling your attention to the fascinating sights we observe along the way… whatever happens to be going on.  Tour covers topics such as Amish history and origins, population statistics and trends, farming practices, use and adaptation of technology, medical care, taxes and banking, education and vocation, courting and weddings, and many more subjects.

When you join us on one of our 14-passenger mini-bus tours of the out-of-the-way back roads and country lanes, you’ll experience a sense of the work and family ethics that continue to mark the Amish way of life. Witness spectacular panoramas of patchwork farms unparalleled in their intrinsic beauty, still farmed with horses and mules. Every day except Sunday, we include a stop at an Amish roadside stand, bake shop, craft, or quilt shop as part of your 90-minute Farmlands excursion.  On Sundays, the tour runs, and we cover all the content, but we cannot stop at any Amish properties.
