Lancaster County Amish Attractions

In the heart of Lancaster’s Amish Country, surrounded by Amish farms between Bird-in-Hand and Intercourse, you’ll find the Amish Experience at Plain & Fancy Farm. For over 50 years the Amish Experience has remained the definitive interpretive center for guided tours of the Amish Farmlands, tours of Lancaster County’s only officially designated “Heritage Site” Amish House & One-Room School, and the spectacular Amish Experience Theater F/X production of “Jacob’s Choice.” It is one of the top Amish attractions in Bird-in-Hand.

Tour guide John Beiler notes: "Life as an Amish kid was really great and I had a great life since. When I was 17 years old my Mom and Dad decided to join a reformed Amish group called the Beachy Amish (we had been Old Order Amish up to that point). I stayed with the Old Order Amish for two more years as I was having too much fun. There were 150 kids in my Amish youth group from all over Lancaster county and beyond. After joining mainstream America (I did not join the Beachy Amish) I lived in Virginia, New york, The Bahamas and in Europe and then came back to the US and started a software company and sold it after about five years. I give tours partly because I love doing it but also because I spend so much time reading about my heritage over the years ... Please let me know how we can help."
