Love this Apple picking adventure!
I would definitely book this Apple Picking adventure again. We had a gorgeous day at Penning Farms. The farm is large with a wide variety of apples to pick from. The price to travel there and back from Manhattan includes 10 lbs of apples and a delicious apple cider bottle, what a bargain! The additional pumpkin patch was a cute location for pics and pumpkins. Our host, Jo was great!Sarah M.Repeat Adventurer
08/26/2024Fun and well organized, tough for those with dietary restrictions
Overall we had a great experience. The guides were very friendly and and trip was well-planned. We had a lot of fun tubing on the river - I only wish the tubing portion was longer!
A few areas that could use improvement:
- We re-scheduled our trip after it was cancelled the first time, and Sourced was concerned they had overbooked our new date. They were planning to kick a few people off the trip at the bus pickup if needed. This seems totally avoidable when you should know how many people are booked - and to kick them off when they are on time, packed up and ready to go is extremely poor planning. Luckily we had enough seats.
- Lunch was pretty lackluster overall, but it was abysmal for people with dietary restrictions. We had meatballs, pasta and salad. For two people in my group who had dietary restrictions (that had been communicated to Sourced in advance), they could only eat salad (essentially a plate full of iceberg lettuce).
Would book again, but it would be great to accommodate people with dietary restrictions better, or allow them to bring their own food for a partial credit.
