A wonderful walk through tine - Our Guide was very knowledgeable and provided information about the historic buildings in downtown Lititz, as well as the history of the founding of the town and the Moravian Church. I wish I remembered his name, because he was very good and I would highly recommend him. We ended at Stoll & Wolfe distillery. Even better than the whiskey tasting was the talk by one the owners, Jim Wolf. He was interesting, funny, and some tales ironic. We could do it again!
If you get a chance, go!

Highly recommend - The tour guide made the tour fun and informative. Very friendly staff. We knew some of the Lititz history but all of this was new knowledge or went into more depth. The whiskey tasting was a delight as we got a history lesson too, which I did not anticipate. This offered a great addition to the history tour. Highly recommend! Great early evening outing.

Great experience on the History and Whiskey tour - The tour was so cool! I learned a lot about the town and its history. My tour leader, Bob, had a lot of knowledge, and he shared some of his personal stories about what he has seen with the town’s history that I found to be helpful as well! I also got a lot of in depth knowledge about whiskey and its history! It’s worth the time and money for the tour! 😊

Our guide Sheryl, was... - Our guide Sheryl, was very nice and informative !! Meeting Jim Wolfe, was an awesome pleasure. The intertwined family history of distilling : tied to the area and Kentucky, was very interesting. Their products are definitely a labor of love. Keeping care to not lose sight of pleasure it affords, opposed to pure labor and profit.

Hometown Tourists - We live in Lititz and still learned so much! Sometimes it is fun to approach your town as a tourist because then you get a glimpse of things you might otherwise take for granted. I would recommend this to locals and visitors alike!

Great town tour and good sips at a whiskey distillery - We are not from Lititz and learned a lot of interesting history. It is a lovely town and enjoyed the whiskey tour also. The owner of the distillery was full of stories and information. Being a small group was nice too.
Our tour guide was chatty, fun and we got invited into a home also. It had a clock built into a wall that you could see from both sides!
We look forward to coming back to Lititz.

Great time in Lititz - Cheryl was a great tour guide. Even though I live in Lititz, I learned a lot from her. The whiskey sampling at the end was wonderful.

Enjoyable Hodge Podge of Lititz History - The tour guide was very personable but felt the history shared was a bit all over the place and it was challenging to tie the bits of history together.
With whiskey being in the name of the tour I thought there would be more time discussing the history of whiskey in the local area in addition to a tour of distillery. We learned about the family history but didn't get to the distillery portion until after 6 and we had reservations at 6:30 elsewhere. It just didn't seem like enough time to get through everything.
