Had a great time with our guide Annie. She clearly loves sharing her stories and makes a fun experience for the group. The misty weather added to the mystique of the story telling! Have been on many ghost tours in other cities but enjoyed this one the most! Highly recommend.

My family and I had an outstanding tour with tour guide Annie! I have done many ghost tours within Gettysburg over the past 25+ years and this one was the best by far. I would highly recommend the Mark Nesbitt Tours, especially if Annie is the tour guide!
Ron's tour was AMAZING!!!

You're tour guide Ron is amazing!!! He is the best tour guide my family has had in a while! The way he gets into character with the stories is amazing! I don't know if he can be requested but if he can my word ask for him!!! I even asked him for a photo and he happily obliged!!! Next time I'm in Gettysburg we will definitely do this again and ask for Ron!!! This doesn't allow me to give the 20 stars he deserves!!
Hauntingly Good!

We took a group of 8th grade students on the tour and they loved it! Our guides/hostesses were amazing! They kept our students attention with hauntingly good historical stories. This tour is a must if you’re in Gettysburg. We will be back again!

Ron was Outstanding and very informative it was fun on that cold rainy night. There was many stories about time periods from the Civil War era all the way into the 1990s. Our 90 minutes or so went so fast while we walked the streets of Gettysburg. If you are in town or coming to town I highly recommend this adventure.
Nick was great!!!

The tour was based on Gettysburg ghost stories by Mark Nesbitt. The few stories we heard were pretty good, especially the one about Jenny Wade and her fiancée and his friend. It was just hard standing in one place for so long to hear each story which ran on for quite a while.
