Travel Amish Country by Horse and Buggy

Come take a look around Amish Country and tell us what you see. Rolling hills, lush farmland, century-old farmhouses, one-room schoolhouses, covered bridges and roadside farm stands — all visible reminders of a simpler way of life. Nothing is more evident of this old-fashioned lifestyle than the horse-drawn buggies that travel on our modern roads.

When you stay with us at B.F. Hiestand House, we suggest you park your car and take a tour of the beautiful Lancaster County countryside via horse and buggy. You'll ride back in time and see how the Amish get around our Dutch Country roads. There are three buggy tour operators located on the Old Philadelphia Pike, right in the heart of Amish Country. Each of them will help you uncover the myths and help you better understand the Amish way of life.
