Lancaster County Best Kept Secrets Tour

An unusual shopping/food and fun adventure featuring 44 off-the-beaten path businesses, hand-picked for their uniqueness. Set up like a home or garden tour, you’ll travel place to place, in your own vehicle, enjoying all the special free things (refreshments, games, gifts, farm tours, demos, workshop tours, make & take projects, etc.) the businesses have planned for you.
Your ticket is valid the entire time—do what you can in a day or take 16 days—it’s up to you. Collect tickets to play the shop & win game and enter to win over $1000 in prizes. Enter to win a $200 shopping spree at the tour business of your choice. Plus, each place has given you a valuable coupon.
Although we don’t tell the names of the businesses ahead of time (that’s part of the fun secret!), we will tell some of the things tour goers will see . . . a variety of home décor & furnishings stores, craft shops and artisan wares, blooming greenhouses and a garden mercantile, thrift & consignment shops, an all-things-travel stop, vintage & antique shops, a fabulous chocolatier, textiles and wool mill, clothing & jewelry boutiques, an all-about-wildlife center, a pretzel bakery, an everything-BBQ store, a mini-horse farm, a tucked away local broommaker, great eats including: a pierogi shop, a local creamery, a French pâtisserie, and a stop offering frozen made-from scratch dinners, a few specialty shops and more! There is something for everyone!
The stops are located throughout Lancaster County, but if you follow our path, you will never travel more than 15 miles between places, and most are closer together. What a fun way to find the best kept secrets of Lancaster County!
Tickets are $12 ea–$1 per ticket is donated to Arch Street. The first 2000 people to purchase tickets will also receive a free goody bag containing promotional items and gifts from the businesses—so reserve NOW. Your ticket is a booklet which contains a guide that lists the name, address and description of each business, a map to get you around, the calendar of extra events, and coupons from every business.
