5.00My wife and I have been on many food tours, and this one rates right at the top. Silver, our guide, did a great job and took us to some wonderful eateries and other shops. She was entertaining while at the same time very knowledgeable of the area and history. It was just my wife and I on the tour and we had a great time with Silver! Highly recommend!!!

5.00What a wonderful start to getting to know Gettysburg! We had THE BEST tour guide, Silver (yes, that is her name). Silver made the tour very custom and unique to us. She even understood and was knowledgeable regarding my specific food intolerance issue. We were very pleased with the tour and feel like we learned some great things about Gettysburg and made a friend as well!
Great tour!!
