What makes our Amish tour Authentic

Lancaster wasn’t always a popular tourist destination. That all changed in 1955 when Lancaster entrepreneur, Adolf Neuber, had the idea to open an educational destination for the public where people could learn the truth about the Amish way of life in Lancaster County.

Neuber opened The Amish Farm and House to provide an authentic and accurate educational experience that was true to the historical, and modern, customs of Lancaster County’s Amish, while always remaining respectful of his Amish neighbors and preference for privacy.

That tradition of providing an authentic educational experience while remaining respectful of our Amish neighbors continues to this day.

An Authentic Learning Opportunity

You will learn from knowledgeable guides, most of whom have lived in Lancaster their entire lives and some of whom have worked closely with, and in, the Amish community. Since our tours are un-scripted, you will have plenty of opportunities to ask questions while on a guided bus or farmhouse tour.
