Itinerary

Day 1

We depart via deluxe motorcoach for our tour to Lancaster, PA - the heart of the Amish Country. 2 nights at the COMFORT SUITES LANCASTER, featuring spacious guestrooms, indoor pool, fitness center. Tonight, enjoy a buffet dinner & show at the DUTCH APPLE DINNER THEATRE - “IRVING BERLIN’S HOLIDAY INN”. Jim and Linda transform a farmhouse into an inn celebrating every holiday with thrilling dance numbers, laugh-out-loud comedy, and a parade of Irving Berlin hits in this heartwarming, high energy tap dance extravaganza. But what happens when Jim’s best friend tries to lure Linda away with promises of being his new Hollywood dance partner? Hear favorites like “Blue Skies”, “Easter Parade”, “Heat Wave”, “White Christmas”, and more.

Day 2

Today we visit Elva Hurst, an extraordinarily talented chalk artist in her Barnyard Art Studio for CHALK TALK. Engage your senses through music, storytelling, and the amazing chalk artistry of a former Old Order Mennonite woman who offers insights into Amish culture with a story that comes to life, and lights up before your eyes. Explore KITCHEN KETTLE VILLAGE with lunch on own. This afternoon we’ll take our reserved seats at Sight & Sound Theatre for the return of “NOAH.” With a catastrophic storm on its way, Noah is given a monumental task: build a boat big enough to save his family from a flood that will cover the entire earth. As Noah endeavors to live faithfully in the midst of an increasingly chaotic world, can he trust that God’s promises run deeper than the rising waters around him? Returning for one season only, this landmark production takes you on board one of the world’s best-known voyages as live animals fill the stage and aisles. Set sail inside the enormous ark as this extraordinary story comes to life. Family-Style Dinner tonight at the PLAIN & FANCY RESTAURANT.

Day 3

This morning we’ll visit BYERS’ CHOICE, see incredible displays of famous Caroler figurines, watch the artisans creating, painting and costuming. Head for home with memories of our time in the Amish Country.
