European Heritage Tours

We invite you to join us on a two-week journey to the places where your ancestors once lived — walking the very paths they walked and experiencing the culture they knew. These tours are tailored to your family roots and designed to be both personal and deeply meaningful.

Led by J. Lemar and Lois Ann Mast of Masthof Press—editors and publishers of Mennonite Family History—you’ll benefit from their decades of genealogical and cultural expertise. With dozens of successful trips to Europe, the Masts offer a rich, insightful experience like no other.

Along the way, you’ll visit key sites of Anabaptist history, including historic churches, villages, and places of refuge that shaped the early Mennonite and Amish faith. Whether you’re exploring Swiss valleys or German farmsteads, each stop connects you more deeply to your heritage.
