Great Life Tours

Great Life Tours operates as a Northern Indiana-based travel agency and group tour operator, specializing in immersive, high-quality experiences within the region's Amish Country. Founded by Vickie and Mark Estep, the company focuses its tours on destinations such as Shipshewana and Elkhart County. They provide a dedicated concierge service for group tours, ensuring seamless, personalized planning. The agency aims to deliver authentic itineraries designed to connect visitors deeply with the local culture and community. The company crafts both themed and custom itineraries, led by specialized guides who facilitate hands-on activities and direct community engagement. Offerings include "The Grab Bag Tour," "My Amish Life," and "Holidays in Amish Country," as well as a "Tour for a Cause" that supports local non-profit organizations. A core element of their approach involves providing behind-the-scenes access to Amish businesses and homes. This grants groups unique insights into local craftsmanship and a way of life not typically accessible to the average visitor. This philosophy, driven by Vickie Estep's passion for sharing the stories of local makers along the Heritage Trail, ensures enriching and respectful cultural experiences.
