The Amish Experience Theater and Country Homestead Tour Combo - Bird-in-Hand, PA
Amish Experience Theater and Country Homestead Tour
At the F/X Theater, you are surrounded by amazing sound, five screens, lighting and special effects: it is one of only three theaters like it in North America. "Jacob's Choice," the currently running show at the F/X Theater, is a story about an Old Order Amish family and their lives & struggles. Then, you can take the Homestead Tour, which takes you into the home of the family you met during "Jacob's Choice." The home is a Lancaster County Heritage site, and as you tour it you can learn about the day-to-day lives of an Amish family. The whole experience is educational and fun. Maybe you will learn a few ways to simplify your own life and achieve the relaxed and disciplined lifestyle of the Amish. Details

Loved everything about this Amish experience!The film,Jacobs Choice,gave an inside look into the life of an Amish family & the human decisions that they are faced with.It also gave a historical back round ,which was very interesting.The film was shown in a barn setting,which also added to the experience.The film was then followed by a guided tour of the actual homestead.The tour guide was very informative.I suggest this experience to anyone!It really makes you think about the world we live in.There was also a fantastic gift shop on the premises,along with a couple Amish-run stores.We also ate at the restaurant on the premises.If you decide to eat there,choose the family style sit down meal over choosing the menu.You'll be able to try all the varieties of food and will meet some really interesting people.We ended up with some new friends.There is also a buggy ride available on the premises.That was also a worthwhile trip.It took you right onto an Amish farm.Let's me just put it this way,we were thinking we would be done with this experience in a couple hours.Well,we were there for 6 hours!We don't regret a thing!
