What are people saying about Gettysburg

Carol_K, Aug 2026

Gettysburg vacation

Very informative with humor mixed in. Worth the money. Amazing the knowledge of the battle of Gettysburg the tour guide remembers. I stayed in the bus because I’m handicapped and I couldn’t take my scooter. But the bus driver was pretty knowledgeable when I asked him a couple things when everyone else was off the bus with the tour guide.

Great tour

Amber gave an interesting talk about the history of Gettysburg and how the local residents were impacted and how they responded. She did it in a way that made it very interesting. She was very considerate and friendly and I would recommend her to anyone else who was interested in visiting Gettysbury. The persion costumes also added to teh realism of the tour.

A ghost tour where you actually get to investigate with equipment!

This was such a fun and unique experience. Tommy, our guide, was nice and knowledgeable. A very good storyteller! The best part was being able to actually use equipment to have an encounter with a spirit. Everyone who wanted to participate got equipment and we were given plenty of time on our own to investigate. Highly recommend for anyone!

Spirits of Jennie Wade Ghost Night Tour in Gettysburg

carol_g, Jun 2026

Excellent Tour

I went with my adult granddaughter and 10 year old great grandson. I have a bad knee and wasn't sure if it would be too much walking for me but it was pretty easy. There is a short walk from ticket office , then steps up and down when you get into house. Ann was our tour guide and shared her family has lived in Gettysburg for generations so she had first hand stories handed down from relatives who experienced the battle and events first hand ! We had finished touring the upstairs and gathered by the door when Ann got quiet and looked up the steps and called "hello"....she looked around and said "did anyone else hear footsteps....?" Several people nodded and said yes ......I don't know if it was just floor creaking but it only happened once. We then went to the basement.Ann continued to talk about what the couple of days were like for the family as they hid down there. She also talked about some things that had happened to other tour guides not big crazy woowoo stuff just subtle things that give you pause. Whether you believe in the supernatural or not some things can't be explained. There was a definite energy as we walked through the house. The true story of Jennie Wade is sad and emotional especially with all the details Ann was able to share about not only Jennie and her whole family but the townspeople of Gettysburg at that time. Highly recommend Ann and this tour.

The sobering truth of war

It was awesome, very sobering and brought to light the true horrors of war affecting everyone (and everything) for miles around. Our guide Doug was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic, we highly recommend him. His presentation was a nice compliment to the tour of the battlefield we took the day before.

Evening Investigation - Small Group Gettysburg

Ricky_B, Nov 2025

Totally recommend! Great guide and eerie locations!

This investigation was worth every penny! Carey our guide was the best! Her energy and passion was evident from start to finish! She has every piece of equipment you could want and we had access to all of them. Each location got progressively creepier. Which led to more activity over the course of the night. So much so that by the final location, one group left due to the uneasiness of it. I'm not so much into ghosts/spirits/hauntings that I can't chalk things up to an animal making a noise or some other natural occurrence. But I do believe in those things and have a ton of respect for the lore and history of Gettysburg. Which you can absolutely feel when you're exploring these locations. And the town itself. This is a great tour in my opinion! You won't be disappointed!!

History and Haunts ghost tour

After visiting the Gettysburg National Military Park and taking the self-guided auto tour during the day, we felt we had a good idea of this historic event in American history. The ‘History and Haunts’ tour completed our day by providing information about what happened in the town of Gettysburg. Ken did a great job bringing those emotional stories to life. We really enjoyed this tour.
