They also have traditional two-wheeled scooters available. Each scooter coupe holds two people side by side. The scooter coupe is a unique three-wheel design that offers stability and is a fun choice for touring Amish Country on the open roads. One of the best ways to see the Lancaster area is to book a Strasburg Scooter Tour. Getting instructions before a scooter coupe tour with Strasburg ScootersPhoto credit: Robin O’Neal Smith 10.

I learned so much on this tour, and I know you will enjoy it, too. Our driver was a guide and told us all about how Amish farmers still used mules and horses, why they don’t drive cars, how their houses grew as generations were born and stayed on the farm, and how they powered their homes without electricity. We stopped at a bakery that also had a goat petting area across the parking lot, a soft pretzel shop, and a quilt shop. This part of the tour takes you throughout the countryside to see various farms and make several stops at Amish businesses. I found this part of the tour to be captivating. You will see a table set for dinner, the clothes the Amish wear, stark bedrooms, and even an Amish casket. The house tour takes you through an Amish home with a guide who gives a fascinating amount of detail about the Amish lifestyle and their history. It provides a great photo opportunity.Ī guided house tour of an Amish home in LancasterPhoto credit: Robin O’Neal Smith Guided House Tour Be sure to view the pond with a fountain in the middle. The inside is set up just like a classroom. You also can visit a one-room schoolhouse. You will also get to see all the outbuildings used, such as a blacksmith shop, a spring house, a lime kiln, a chicken coop, and more. You will see horses, goats, miniature ponies, pigs, and chickens. You are provided a map, and you can walk around the 15-acre farm at your leisure to see the various animals and the way of the Amish farm. This is a three-part tour, and they tell you to schedule at least three hours to complete the entire tour. I highly recommend The Amish Farm and House Tour. When in Amish country, don’t waste the opportunity to learn more about the Amish lifestyle, their history, and how they have been able to remain separate from the world as most of us know it while living surrounded by progress.
