downtown lancaster was the only good part alot of history that i did not know.the trip started on time which was nice
Response from Host , Jul 2022
We are sorry you didn't feel you got the value you were looking for on your experience. We appreciate and will consider your feedback. On rare occasions, the family at the second stop is unavailable to interact with our guests, but we do feel that the information given about the Amish on the hour and a half driving tour as well as the two stops, combined with the history walk in the city, is aprropriately priced. We understand that subjectively, some guests may feel differently. We take your comments seriously. Thank you.

The tour was great ! I had no idea Lancaster was rich with so much history and culture. The Amish visit was so informative and we were able to meet some of the Amish children, pet the horses, and even enjoy amazing ice cream that was included. I give it a 10 out of 10!

I enjoyed the 3 hours spent with our guide Michael on Monday. We had a small group of 3 - a diverse wonderful experience of Lancaster walk, followed by Amish countryside. We stopped by a farm with a creamery and an Amish well-to person’s home. The experience felt real, unlike a touristy event. I learned so much in 3 hours and enjoyed myself at the same time!😀👍

A very comprehensive tour of downtown Lancaster as well as a visit to an Amish farm and bishop-approved creamery with delicious ice cream. A stop at a strawberry stand as well as a dip of ice cream were included in the tour price. Guide was very knowledgeable! Jim and Rich

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
