We had an enjoyable afternoon learning about the stories of the civilians who lived in the town of Gettysburg during the battle. Karen was so knowledgeable and it was such an interesting perspective to hear. Highly recommend this tour!

First time in Gettysburg and I am so happy my group booked this tour. Jerry was an amazing tour guide, the kind makes you forget you’re even on a tour and instead you feel like you’re living inside of a documentary. I’d highly recommend anyone to book this tour especially if it’s your first time visiting the town!

Brenda was our guide for this tour. It just so happened, our family got a private tour. Brenda was professional, courteous and very knowledgeable. We walked through the town and learned new information as well as refreshed our previous knowledge. Thank you Brenda!
