Overview
Visit the only place in the world that the Amish and Mennonite communities come to vacation en masse and learn about their culture with your tour guide. On this tour, the goal is to create a “bridge of understanding” about these wonderfully unique and close-knit communities. You will learn about the history of their religious beliefs, values, traditions and practices of daily life. Visit Pinecraft, where 500+ Amish and Mennonite families live year-round and where 5,000+ return each season from Ohio, Pennsylvania and Indiana to vacation. Enjoy stops at Alma Sue’s Quilt Shop, The Carlisle Inn and Der Dutchman for shopping and a delicious pie shooter! Gain a new appreciation of the rich culture on this Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence-rated tour. *During April there may be variations of the tour because typically many of our Amish tourists have returned home, therefore we may visit a local Amish furniture maker to learn about carpentry and its importance to their culture.

Awesome!! It was cold & raining but the free pie shooters & informative stories made it a perfect day. This is my second time taking this tour & each time i learn something new. I bring different friends each time & they luv it.
Sarasota Trolley Tours are a fun learning experience for residents and a great activity to take visitors.

The Amish Experience Tour: Bridges to Understanding is an excellent way to understand the history and culture of the community. Kendra is a wonderful guide and narrator, informative and very personable. I highly recommend this tour option and several of the others on which I have participated.

Kendra our tour guide was so knowledgeable about the Amish culture! We went to an Amish neighborhood, a hotel, a quilt shop and a bakery! After the tour we went back in our own to eat lunch at an Amish restaurant, it was great! We highly recommend these tours! The guides are awesome!
Great guide and very enjoyable short tour.

Very nice to hour tour of the Amish community in Sarasota. Excellent guide Kendra who is very knowledgable and a pleasure to listen to. I learned a lot and was glad to have to taken this tour. If the Amish community is of interest to you, then you'll enjoy the tour .... if not, then you probably wouldn't be reading this review anyway :)
A Great Tour about the Amish
Published on Jan, 2025
I organized a group of friends (12 ladies) to go on Discover Sarasota's tour called The Amish Experience. Our tour guide, Kendra, was outstanding. It was so interesting to hear her stories about the Amish people who live and visit Sarasota. She spoke with warmth, kindness and humor. I highly recommend this tour!!
