KALONA
Kalona
Kalona is home to a burgeoning craft, antiques, and local products industry. Its proximity to both Iowa City and a large Amish settlement have allowed growth in population and industry in recent years. This quaint city centers around the historic old town business section of Kalona, which features many local businesses and shops that are popular with tourists.
Tours
The Kalona Chamber of Commerce offers guided and self-guided tours for all ages. Travel back in time on scenic back roads and get a sense of the rigorous days that comprise the Amish way of life. Learn about their family ethic, while you view the homes, one room schools, beautifully manicured gardens, & working horses. Tours take about 90 minutes.

Tucked away into every corner of this little town are quaint shops and services of all kinds. There's something for everyone: amazing homemade chocolate shoppe, famous Amish bakery (for those with a sweet tooth), historical village (for the history buff), Amish-made furniture, homey coffee shoppe, antique stores, restaurants, old-fashioned general store, and more!
