Shopping in Illinois Amish Country!
One of the highlights of many visits to Illinois Amish Country is the special shopping opportunities that are available in downtown and around Arthur. Large groups and individuals enjoy visiting the special shops in downtown Arthur and out in the surrounding Amish countryside. ACM Tours can help provide itineraries that allow time for immersing your group in the Amish Area Experience.
Amish made fine custom furniture, fresh baked goods, antiques and primitives, quilts and extensive quilt supplies, world class fine art, home decor, special local made crafts, fudge, Ice creams, yogurts, frozen treats and a lot of good foods make the downtown area extremely browseable.
Out in the Amish countryside our visitors can enjoy shopping in Amish owned and operated country stores, orchards, bakeries, buggy shops, wood shops,farm stands and much more.
Don’t let Arthur being just a small dot on the map fool you. The most frequent comment or complaint we hear from visitors on our tours is that they did not get enough time for shopping and browsing. We try to plan “shopping” time into every visit. Two hours is good. and will not bore or rush your guests. We suggest you (as a tour organizer) allow plenty of time for this activity. It is part of the Amish Country experience of Arthur. Your guests will appreciate it. Try to leave home an hour earlier if you can or schedule a bit later arrival back home. We have plenty of relaxing things to experience while you are here.
ACM Tours will plan a relaxing visit itinerary to fill all of your available time here in Arthur.
