Echoes of War is the premiere ghost tour in Gettysburg. We’ll bring you into the heart of the town that the Civil War nearly decimated and show you some of the city's most haunted locations. For the spirits of the soldiers who died on the very streets of Gettysburg, the war hasn't ended.
You’ll also learn about the citizens who watched in horror as the Battle of Gettysburg raged outside their windows and the aftermath of them having to pick up the pieces of their scarred and ruined city.
Echoes of War is a bittersweet look at what came before and what came after during one of America’s darkest chapters that families of all ages can learn and appreciate.

I went on this tour with my Mom on a cold January Saturday night and it was fantastic. Major Finn is a Gettysburg and Civil War aficionado armed with witty jokes and a theatrical presence that would rival the best Broadway actors. The lantern of safety guided us through a rather entertaining 1.5 hours. I highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in ghosts and Gettysburg history.

We took this family friendly tour with 3 children youngest age 8 with Ally who was absolutely amazing. The tour was the perfect mix of ghost stories and history. Ally showed up in full historic dress with tons of energy. She kept our kids engaged the whole time, had fun trivia questions, and loads of ghost stories. The tour was a little over 1.5hrs and a 2 mile walk around town. We learned so much about the history and the historic houses in an exciting and engaging way. The family friendly tour kept it pretty light on the scary or bloody details so perfect for children. However, I would not recommend for anyone with very small children or who has trouble walking 2miles and sometimes on uneven sidewalks. I highly recommend Ghost City Tours and Ally for your stay in Gettysburg!

We were the only two people on the tour at 6:00pm. Our tour guide was friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable. He was a lot of fun and the tour was very enjoyable.

Our friends who live in Katoomba took us here on a Monday night. It was quite busy and all the tables by the windows were full. However we could still see the marvellous view of the Blue Mountains. Initially service was slow until we got Aiden to take our order . Seamus the other waiter proved to be delightful. The food was superb .
