Victoria_W, Jun 2026
It is advertised as 3 hours.. plan a full day of you want to stop, get out of the vehicle, and visit the monuments. Definitely make sure to download the app when in good reception. App is very accurate. Expect traffic. Road signs for auto tour markers are great! Because we wanted to see all the sites, there just wasn't enough time and we didn't get to finish. Plan your day well!
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Victoria, I’m glad to hear my Gettysburg Battlefield GPS Driving Audio Tour was accurate and that the auto tour markers and road signs helped guide your visit. Gettysburg has so much to see, so I completely understand wanting a full day to stop, explore the monuments, and take it all in. Since the tour is valid forever, you can always return to finish the sites you missed. I recommend my Ultimate Gettysburg Battlefield Audio Tours, including Ghosts of the Battlefield, Devil’s Den, Seminary Ridge, and the main tour. Happy exploring!
