Things To Do in Lancaster
Hersheypark
MEGA amusement park in Hershey, PA - only about 20 minutes from Lancaster. Based in Hershey, PA - where Hershey's chocolate was founded, there are a ton of excellent coasters, an epic water park, and really yummy food at this spot!
Hershey's Chocolate World
Chocolate world!!! Chan's favorite place on earth ;) They take you on a *free* ride tour of how chocolate is made & you get a free sample at the end. Chan loves their merchandise & his favorite sleep pants are from here - so honestly, it's a must see.
Dienner's Country Restaurant
Ana grew up going here with her grandparents, Geena & Grandad. It's a buffet style country restaurant run by a Mennonite family in Lancaster - think mashed potatoes, loads of gravy, shoo fly pie & a soft serve ice cream that you can dream of.
Dutch Wonderland
Old-School Amusement Park that Ana grew up going to with her family in the heart of Lancaster, PA. Expect rickety old roller coasters, a rocking pirate ship, and a bonus - it's across the streets to a TON of outlet shopping.
Old Windmill Farm
If you're coming to Amish country - the best thing you can do is tour a real Amish farm & see how butter is made, fields are plowed, and cows are milked. Yeehaw!
Passenger Coffee & Tea
Ana's sister Cara recommends this as the best coffee in Lancaster, PA :)
Luca
Delicious wood fired pizza & drinks - tons of outdoor seating and good vibes :)
