Visitors Center

Our Visitors Center is open Mondays - Saturdays, 9am - 4pm.

The Discover Lancaster is proud to present a new short film showing in our Visitors Center Theater. A Patchwork of Neighbors, depicts the essence of Lancaster County through personal stories told by locals. We even have exclusive voice over from an Amish person! This engaging film is the perfect way to understand the patchwork that makes up our dynamic destination. The film plays on a continuous loop during normal Visitors Center hours.

In addition to attractions, dining, lodging, and shopping brochures, we also have plenty of information about other properties, services, and special events.

Our friendly travel consultants are a valuable service in and of themselves, offering expert advice and suggesting restaurants, finding last-minute lodging or finding those special out-of-the-way places.

We're conveniently located just off Route 30 at the Greenfield Road exit. You can also call us toll free at 1-800-PA-Dutch (1-800-723-8824) or 717-299-8901 (local).
