Description - What to expect

Depart New York for an Amish Country day trip and travel through New Jersey and Pennsylvania to the vibrant city of brotherly love—Philadelphia. Once you arrive in the historic area, you'll visit iconic sites like the famous Liberty Bell, a powerful symbol of freedom in America, as well as Independence National Park and Congress Hall. Don’t miss a stroll down Elfreth’s Alley, the oldest continuously inhabited street in America.

Next, enjoy a panoramic tour of Philadelphia that showcases the Financial District, Benjamin Franklin Parkway, and Historic Philadelphia, among other highlights. Before leaving the city, you’ll get a chance to see the famous “Rocky Steps,” a must-see for fans of the iconic movie.

Afterward, the Amish Country day trip continues to Lancaster County, home of the Amish people. After a break for lunch at the marketplace—where you can pick up some lovely handmade souvenirs—you’ll embark on an authentic Amish buggy ride through the picturesque Amish farm country. Here, you’ll learn about their simple lifestyle, living without modern technology like electricity, running water, or appliances.

In the late afternoon, you’ll depart east for an evening arrival back in New York, having experienced the unique charm of the Amish Country day trip.
