Taking a hot air balloon ride over the Amish countryside is the best way to experience Lancaster County. This is something we have done several times [morning flights] and have loved it every time. More than likely you will end up landing in an Amish farm and having them run out to help packing up the balloon. https://ushotairballoon.com/
