Allie was a bundle of energy and great stories. You’ll learn so much about the history as well as the ghost stories and even her own personal experiences. The 1 1/2 hour all ages tour is a must !

Major Finn was a lot of fun! My parents are huge history buffs and even they learned new stories from our walk through town. Seeing the remnants of gunshots and canon balls on the side of the buildings was fascinating and the stories were so engaging. The tour was a highlight of our trip.

Tony_A, Mar 2026
A bit of walking but definitely worth it to hear the “spooky” but captivating history behind Gettysburg. Major Finn did awesome explaining the events that occurred in that town and made the trip super fun.

A Must Do

Jamie_D, Mar 2026
Even through the mist and fog, which we thought practically added to the experience, it was thoroughly enjoyable. Amy was a wonderful and interesting tour guide. Her knowledge and enthusiasm for the paranormal made her stories come to life. We would recommend not missing this tour on you trip to Gettysburg. It also seems like this tour company (Ghost Tours) is the one to use for their other tours as well.

Definitely doing it again.

Lisa_C, Feb 2026
Our Tour guide was amazing, knowledgeable and very friendly. It was so cold too and still didn’t skip anything. I would definitely go again just when it’s warmer. My Daugher caught a few orbs on video too!

Great tour

Thomas_M, Nov 2025
Best ghost tour I have ever been on and I have been on many in Gettysburg and elsewhere. Allie was fantastic. She was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and you could tell that she really loved what she was doing. Very informative and nicely blended history with ghostly tales. My 8 year old daughter also enjoyed it and didn’t find it too scary. I would highly recommend this tour.

Must do!

Jacqueline_F, Nov 2025
