Great encompassing tour - Loved having the variety of a walk around history of Lancaster followed by a comfortable ride through the countryside. Our tour operator, Mike, was very knowledgeable about both Lancaster and the Amish culture. Great feature of having ear pieces to help hear everything he said, especially in downtown Lancaster. Stopping for a delicious scoop of ice cream was a delicious treat. I highly recommend this tour!

Great Authentic Lancaster Experience - Mike met us at 9 am and proceeded to show us around Lancaster on foot. He was thorough, knowledgable and very nice to spend time with. We enjoyed learning the history of Lancaster and the surrounding area. The ride to the Amish Country area was pleasant with two wonderful stops: one was possibly the best ice cream we ever had; the second was a home/workshop of an Amish family. Sadly, the Central Market was not open on our tour day (only open Tuesday, Friday and Saturday). Mike gave us an alternative recommendation for lunch (C'est La Vie) which was great. We highly recommend this specific tour with Mike.
