Day 1

Morning

Covered Bridge Driving Tour:  Just the sight of our covered bridges brings to mind thoughts of old charm and romance, and in Lancaster County, the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch Country, we have plenty of both!  Sometimes referred to as "kissing bridges" because of the many couples who have strolled across them over the years, our area offers more than two dozen of these architectural beauties - each with its own inviting story.  Self-guided driving tour maps are available online.

Afternoon

Vineyards, Wineries, and Breweries:  Visit one of Lancaster's many picturesque wineries and breweries, stroll through vineyards, and taste award winning wines.  Relax while lounging on a beautiful patio or in a grand showroom. Take a sip of history with each glass of wine or bottle of beer.

Evening

Dinner: Fine dining in historic downtown Lancaster.  Here in the City, the perfect dining experience is just a short stroll away! Your appetite for great food is easily satisfied in any of our cozy cafés, excellent brewpubs, and fine restaurants. 

Overnight Lodging

Nothing says romance like a stay in a cozy bed & breakfast or luxurious inn. Indulge yourself with fine linens and canopy beds while experiencing the past. Sleep like royalty in one of our beautiful restored historic homes reborn as a B&B where personal comfort is a priority. The experience will make you feel like a new person and refresh you for each exciting day of your romantic getaway.

Day 2

Morning

Spa Treatment: For your serenity, enjoyment, and relaxation enjoy a deep tissue massage, deep cleansing facial, manicure, or pedicure.  Say goodbye to the stresses, pressures, and tensions of our fast-paced world. Rejuvenate your body with spa packages for couples. 

Afternoon

Antiquing/Shopping:  Lancaster County is perhaps the best place in the United States for antiquing. Here you'll find dozens of markets, shops, showcase malls, and centers with more than a thousand antiques dealers selling one-of-a-kind crafts, hand-built fine furniture, and folk art. 

If you are yearning for great deals without the price tag to match, look no further than our outlets, where bargain hunting is no difficult task. After shopping in our factory stores for glassware, pewterware, crafts, silk flowers, and then hitting the designer outlets, you may need a Conestoga wagon to pull all the goodies home!

Evening

Performance Arts/Theatre: Lancaster is home to many well-known theatres with a wide variety of entertaining and unique shows. Spectacular entertainment takes center stage. Nothing beats live entertainment. The curtains go up and for a few hours you're transported to another world. Suddenly you're laughing, singing, maybe even crying but having the time of your life.

Day 3

Morning

Buggy Ride: Discover the countryside the way the Amish do, with a ride on an authentic Amish buggy. A peaceful ride in a horse-pulled buggy offers unique insight into the Amish way of life and gives new appreciation for the idyllic countryside.
