Philly and amish country all good, the start at 630am was not well organized abit of a shambles only one coach had a tour sign and the tour guides didnt seem to know what was happening however our guide turned out to be excellent, full of energy and information speaking 4 languages. Time and experience in Philly was excellent the time and experience in Amish country was disappointing but overall good day

I'm rating this trip a 3 star because even though we enjoyed ourselves we were quite disappointed with part of the trip. I would highly recommend a Philadelphia tour on it's own. DO NOT purchase the Amish tour. The countryside is beautiful BUT the Amish experience was ..well extremely disappointing. We were taken to a local family farm and literally ONLY saw their barn. Yes only their barn...AND that WAS IT! Absolutely nothing educational in regards to the Amish schools, way of living, community or anything at all. I wasn't going to leave a review but I don't want anyone else to ALSO have high expectations and end up EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED as far as the whole Amish experience.

Visiting Lancaster county and exploring where and how the Amish people live was the highlight of the day.
