Pennsylvania is beautiful. We watched dozens of YouTube videos of what to see, eat and experience. The scooters look really fun. There are about 32 covered bridges in Lancaster. The scooter tour is a great way to take this adventure. Single scooters are $69 - $85. The scoot coupes (for two) is $179. There are weight limits on the scooters. You can rent a motorcycle but it seems impractical to keep taking your helmet off and having to balance each time you stop (plus you need a motorcycle license). Everyone gets out of their scooter at each stop. The tour is about two hours. Goggles or eye protection would help. You could also get chilly, depending when you visit. October was gorgeous. If you can get in and out of a single scooter, I suggest that and using the money you saved for a meal or souvenir. Plan ahead. Tours fill up. read more

Dangerous!! Be aware!!! The scooters were outdated and broken so my partner fell from the scooter when he just tried on in the parking lot. We didn't even go on the tour and left on the scene, because he broke his knees. Then one month later, we received this payment of $164.34 on the credit card on file, which we were NOT aware of at all, they charged our credit card without any authorization. We called them, the lady picked up the phone, said the charge due to the damage of the scooter??? Excuse us!! It's the scooter that damaged our trip and broke my partner's knees. We should have pursued further for the medical bills!!! Be aware and stay away from fraudulent people, they would just scam you and charge you for something not related to you! read more

We were a four person group who went on the Covered Bridge Tour. We did two Scoot Coupes and a scooter. Reserving them online was easy. The waiver process was a little perplexing. We all did it twice. Learning to drive the Scoot Coupe is a bit of a process, but our guide, Brian, was very helpful. The route was planned out in such a way that we avoided busy roads. We saw a lot of beautiful farmland, and lots of good cows. read more

Our tour guide, Tori, was awesome! She was so good at explaining the operation of the vehicles. You tried them out on their lot until you feel comfortable to move on. She also made sure everyone stayed in line together. It does take a little learning curve operating the Scoot Coupes on the roadways. It doesn't take long to get it down and enjoy the open ride and feel the wind as you take in all the beautiful scenery. We took the 3 hour tour. We had perfect weather. The route was planned out so well. We covered so much. So great visiting a horse, goat & cow farm. A few gift shops along the way. We stopped at an ice cream shop at the cow farm. Highly recommend to see the beautiful countryside that you would not normally drive on. We also got to see the Amish hard at work in their fields. And we passed a few on the roads in their everyday mode of travel, in the carriages, or on bicycles. We would do this again. Maybe pick out a different tour next time for a different experience. read more

I'm writing this review still on a high from this tour/adventure! So Strasburg Scooters is the first activity on my Summer 2024 Adult Adventures Bucket List and I'm glad I was able to find available bookings to celebrate my new career and the exciting adventures ahead! There were other folks there celebrating as well for events including their 30 year wedding anniversary, birthdays, on a road trip, and just because. Our tour was the Bridges and Brunch tour which was early on Saturday morning. The tour began with a briefing, intro with our guide Brian, and helmet fitting. We then went over safety on using the 2 wheel scooters (what I rode) and buggy for dual riders. It's been a while since I've rode a scooter so I was a bit rusty to begin with but got the hang of it after the first 2 miles. Jumping to the tour and ride...IT WAS AMAZING!!! The view was beautiful and it felt so freeing to ride through the open spaces and scenery. I see why motorcyclists go on rides to nowhere to absorb the views nature provides. The max speed was 25-30mph but on the scooter it felt super fast except for up hill. We saw a couple picturesque bridges which reminds me of one of my first reads "Bridges of Madison County". There were many PROs to this experience but there are some watch outs. The area has many horses required by the Amish culture, so you will run into poop at some point. While it was a warm day, the ride is early in the morning so a bit chilly and even become cold as you start riding. Sun glasses are recommended and truly need for the wind and the random bugs that fly into you as you're riding. We ended the event with our brunch options that we selected in advance. Overall awesome and this was certainly the best adventure/event in a long time!!! read more

My daughter and I did the Date Night Scooter Tour and had such a great experience! The scooters are more like mopeds, and since we had never ridden mopeds before, we were a little nervous. They start you off with a safety lesson and let you practice in the parking lot first. We were nervous at the beginning, but the fear was completely unwarranted - the mopeds were very easy to ride and felt extremely safe. The tour itself was wonderful. We got to ride along beautiful country roads, see an Amish schoolhouse, cross a covered bridge, and even watch Amish families working in their fields. Our guide, Jessica, was knowledgeable, engaging, and you could tell she truly loves what she does. If you're traveling with younger children, they even offer scooter cars where kids can ride as passengers, which is a great option for families. I believe they have an ice cream tour too. It was such a unique way to experience Lancaster beyond the typical tourist attractions. Highly recommend! read more

WORST PLACE EVER! Drove all the way from Brooklyn, NY to an old dilapidated scooter that barely fit one adult male let alone a couple. Paid for a smart car but was given a scooter and when asked for the car we paid for the owner laughed in our faces and said we needed to pay more! Rude, condescending and Disrespectful. DO NOT WATE YIUR TIME OR MONEY WITH THIS BUSINESS. HORRIBLE PEOPLE!!! read more

This was a really fun experience! I loved this tour because it was more hands-on in that we got to drive ourselves around. There was an option to ride around in a two person scooter (for double the price, so it only makes sense if you go with someone else) or a single person scooter. I ended up riding around in one of the two people scooters, and while there was a little bit of a learning curve, it was fairly easy to ride. The only thing is that you have to use a throttle, which is kind of hard on the wrist. It got tiring after a while and my arm started to hurt. We drove around the town (on the roads with the cars!) and got to see a ton of farmland. It was a very beautiful drive, and so much fun. While the guide was super knowledgable and friendly, I wish we made more stops during the tour, as we only stopped once over the entire two hours. As a whole, this was a wonderful experience and I am so glad I did it! read more

Brian was a great tour guide. The 6 of us all live in Lancaster, but we enjoyed the scooter tour. My husband and I have done it before and when u take a tour on a weekday or Saturday it's also an option to visit with Amish or Amish owned businesses. Since our tour was on a Sunday we didn't stop at any Amish businesses, but we had more time riding around the back roads. So I share that potential visitors realize you have choices. Our scooters were all well maintained and we had no issues driving around. Remember to dress for the weather because it feels cooler when zipping around at 20-25 mph. Highly recommend this fun activity. read more

The highlight of our Lancaster trip. Just riding is great fun. Visited very friendly Amish folk including a goat farmer where we had wonderful cheese; a fascinating leather manufacturer who uses old machinery to turn out beautiful work and a wonderful Amish farrier/artistic blacksmith. Tori was a great guide. read more

Tour was ok, but make sure you get everything in writing from them. They don't deliver what they say. If you are expecting a coupe experience most likely you won't get it since they mostly have smart cars. So basically you are driving around in a small car. read more

We took a tour while in town for a couple of days and had a lovely experience with our tour guide Brian. We had scheduled a tour for 11:00am and arrived promptly at 10:15am in time for the training. Brian was very attentive and assisted both of us with care. We had a relatively small tour circle, as Pennsylvania was expecting a rain storm. We got seated to the scooters right away and we're in a scoot coupe. We paid a total of $226 for a 3 hr coupe tour - which stands a bit pricey. This included the tour, $20 coverage for the coupe, and taxes. Pre coverage & taxes it is about $189. I believe the price of the single scooter stood at about $89 without coverage + taxes. Honestly a bit pricey, but worth to pay every now and then. We began the day by going over the controls of the coupe, which very were easy to follow. Then we took a test drive and went onto the road. Throughout the tour we had made about 4 stops, where we visited Amish farms, and got to sample some treats. We were able to purchase soft pretzels, ice cream, and popcorn. During the stops Brian was very diligent in making sure everyone was comfortable and had enough time to fully enjoy the farms. He was very genuine and sparked up lots of good conversations. During the drive, Brian took initiative in creating both a safe & lively experience. We went all around the fields of the Amish county, and even through some forest areas. The coupes were so-so to drive. The wheel was a bit hard to maneuver, as it slipped from the hands and was hard to keep straight when accelerating. However, it was nice to feel the breeze and the coupe was able to go very fast no problem. Overall we didn't see as much Amish life and animals as we wanted to, but we still got a fair share and got the idea. However, the experience of the tour was significantly enhanced due to Brian's positivity. When scheduling a tour, ask if Brian will be present. If the answer is yes, you will have a great experience! read more

I would recommend this tour to people who want to check out Amish town, you get to see a lot of the area and it's beautiful there. The only drawback is that you don't get to stop at a lot of places. I think we stopped only once. It's a little hard if you have a solo scooter to really get a good view because I was really scared of falling over. If you get a double scooter it's not as bad b/c you don't have to balance and if you're not the driver you definitely get to look around. It was a 1.5 hour tour, we did the brunch tour and ended it at Speckled Hen (on our own), which was quite yummy. If you go to amish country, make sure you spend more time after the scooter tour to hit other areas and spend more time taking in the sights. read more

What an absolutely lovely time my family had this past weekend doing the Santa scooter tour with Strasburg Scooters! Our tour guide, aka Santa himself, could not have been more merry and wonderful. He made sure we felt comfortable with blankets (as it was chilly), candy cane treats for the kids (and us) and using the scooters. We had an amazing time touring Amish country on our scooters, it was sooo much fun! We got to stop at a covered bridge and take photos and see all the sights of the local area in the most fun way. Beyond a Cool experience and so glad we made the trip! We traveled from CT to do this tour. We had heard about it last time we were in the area and knew our boys would love it. Well everyone in our party agreed it was worth the trip and then some! We are already talking about doing another tour possibly in the spring or summer and bringing a larger group to enjoy it. This tour was by far the highlight of our Christmas season.... I can not recommend Strasburg Scooters enough! Many Many Thanks and you will see us again! read more

This place is great if you are trying to have a scooter tour around town. 1. Reservation- absolutely necessary. They do have lots of scooter (single person), so last minute we were able to get in. 2. Service - lady who runs the shop is nice and her husband the tour guide is great too. 3. Scooters: if you have motorcycle license you can do the bigger one and bring your child along, single seater scooters are available and the best, which is 2 people 3 wheeled types run out fast, so plan ahead. 4. The view/tour: you get to see the town and the guide makes sure we don't travel through the same road. Lots of farming land. The bridge stop has some interesting history, but you will mostly see the usual like you were driving. No jaw dropping view here. (not the fault of this company, it is just the view in town, let's be clear). They do a great job given the location. 5. Helmet: HIGHLY recommend bringing a SHOWER CAP or use the one that is being sold. I had to shower right after and in the evening again and still could smell the weird smell from the helmet from my hair. I actually got a hair cut the next day and long 1 hour conditioning treatment. I may have gotten the bad helmet (the person who used it before me may have been very smelly), but I wish this place disinfect or do something to prevent this experience or just provide the shower cap for free as the service is expensive anyway and caps cost a few cents in bulk. read more

Great fun but not on a rainy day. I would have enjoyed it more if the weather was better. However, that wasn't Strasburg Scooters' fault. Brian, our guide, was great. He helped everyone and made sure everyone was safe. Even though he says he would make sure everyone has enough timing to make it all through an intersection, you really can't trust that. You, the driver, have to make sure you look both ways at every intersection yourself. You have to stop at every stop sign. So that means you will lose the group of people who were ahead of you. Other than that, you will be fine. We spent the majority of the time on back country roads where there were more horse drawn buggies than cars. The Amish children will run out to see the scooters drive past and wave at you. Please wave back. They're very friendly. read more

My wife and I went on a guided two hour tour. We each rented a scooter and had a blast. It took a little for my wife to feel comfortable and she would have liked a littler extra time to feel secure, but quickly picked it up and had a blast. We went on back roads and saw areas we would have never seen on our own. We ended going through town and by that time everyone felt comfortable to be amidst traffic. We would do this again... hands down! Great weekend getaway option in Lancaster. read more

This was such a delightful experience. Our tour guide was great. It was nice to make a few stops especially at this Amish farm for freshly made blueberry muffins. The ice cream stop allowed us to get some delicious ice cream cones. Being on the open road with these 2 seat three wheel scooters was interesting to say the least. Be sure to bring eyeglasses of some sort or you will not be allowed to go on the scooter. These are convertibles so you can really feel the heat. They gave us all bottles of water and we sure needed them. If you have right hand wrist issues, you may have problem with turning the throttle. Top speed we hit was slightly above 40 mph but my niece is a motorcycle rider so handle bars are no problem for her. read more

Our tour guide, Ross, was so helpful making sure we all felt comfortable driving the scooters. Our 3 hour adventure included a Q&A session with an Amish family, stopping for ice cream, driving through windy countryside roads & going over 2 covered bridges.

110% Recommend. As someone with a physical disability, it can be difficult to find unique and adventurous activities that are also accessible. This staff was so accommodating, and they informed me that they have served many customers with disabilities. They have even strapped manual wheelchairs on the back of the scoot coupes. While I had a lot of fun riding in the parking lot, having weak arms due to a muscle condition made me a better passenger in the scoot coupe. It was a very comfortable and fun ride! Brian, our guide, was super informative about the vehicles, the area, and the history for the tour. We did the Covered Bridges Tour, and we had the treat of meeting with an Amish Family for a few minutes that day. They were so nice, and it was so interesting to learn more about their culture. While I have seen these scoot coupe tours advertised in other places, traveling on the open roads of Lancaster County seems much more relaxing than places with a ton of cars. I highly recommend this activity for all who are able to experience it - it is definitely something to go out of your way to experience! If you want to see it in action, or have questions about transferring into and out of the scoot coupe, I made a vlog of our experience at Strasburg Scooters: https://youtu.be/be-qIkO9Z8Q?feature=shared read more

Today was basically a "private" tour It was just me and Andy and we travelled the back roads around Bird in Hand. I have visited Lancaster County many times, but Andy has extensive knowledge of the area and took me on places and roads I never knew about. He first explained the scooter and its operation, gave me some tips on safety and handling, let me ride around the parking lot until I felt comfortable, and off we went. Some highlights we saw were a woodworking shop, a farrier (blacksmith), goat farm, dairy farm ( with great ice cream) and many other local points which you would never find by yourself. We also passed a "camel farm" but they weren't out today Everyone was very friendly and explained everything. It is the only way to see Lancaster County. Well worth what you pay. I will definitely return and do the covered bridge tour ! Thanks again to Andy for making the day great read more

This was the first time I did an Amish tour in Lancaster. The tour guide was funny, informative, and did a good job at making sure our group stayed together. He talked about the historical background of the Amish and told us random facts about the Amish. He clearly has an in with the Amish, because we stopped at different places a tourist wouldn't be able to go on their own. The tour lasted about 3 hours and even though I live in Lancaster (and do some work for them) I'd do it again in a heartbeat. read more

I opted for the Tour of the Covered Bridges on the single scooter and it was SO much more than expected. Not only was this my 1st visit to Lancaster, but I've never been on a scooter! When you arrive, they greet you with a friendly smile and hot dogs & snow cones. They give you plenty of time to get comfortable handling the scooter, and provide the helmet. The countryside is so stunning. The tour was also informational, interesting, with a couple interesting surprises that you'll see when you take the tour. Brian, our guide was especially wonderful, and took extra care that I would be alright, since I was alone and a little uncomfortable on the scooter. You will not be disappointed. I would highly recommend this tour. This is a wonderful family business. read more

I can't say enough good things about the day we spent with Strasburg Scooters. My husband and I were driving back to Alabama from dropping our daughter (only child that we're VERY close with) off at college in NYC. We decided to make a stop in Amish country on the way home and after a quick search for fun things to do, we found these guys. It was honestly one of the funnest things we've ever done. We are planning to do it again and with our daughter when we pick her up in May! This was worth every penny and I absolutely recommend it for everyone of every age. read more

This was one of the most fun experiences I've ever had! Here are some highlights: The ride - it was quick and easy to learn how to ride the scooter. Riding was very enjoyable and relaxing! The culture - you learn about the local Amish community and even visit a few of them. They offered tasty lemonade and some of the best dessert samples I've ever had. It's clear that this business has a great relationship with many of the locals The staff - our tour guide, Karen, was knowledge and very friendly. Everything we needed to know was very clear, and you can tell she enjoys doing this! She led an awesome experience! We would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone in the area.
