Have you ever explored Ohio Amish Country before? If not, you’re truly missing out—and you should make a point to change that as soon as possible. (And if you only have one day to explore Ohio Amish Country, we recommend taking this road trip.) Amish Heartland Tours offers some of the best, most in-depth tours in Holmes County. In fact, one of their most popular tour options involves a homemade dinner or lunch served in a private Amish home. It’s truly one of the best ways to experience this one-of-a-kind region of Ohio.
Amish Heartland Tours features a variety of group and private tours that enable you to experience Ohio Amish Country like never before.
Tickets for this particular tour option are $30 per person and smaller groups may be able to join a scheduled meal. (Children ages 10 and under are $15 per person.)
You'll feast on homemade bread, broasted chicken, Amish noodles, assorted pies and much more. After your meal, you'll likely even be able to tour the Amish home.
The Meals in Amish Homes Tours are offered year round and require a 5-person minimum reservation. To schedule a meal, you can call (330) 893-3248 or email groups@amishheartlandtours.com.
