Bring water !!!! It is a great tour but it can be hot standing in sun and walking - and only 1 opportunity for rest room break with no vending machine for beverage purchases so just be prepared ahead of time and it will be a better experience

Mallory_P, Aug 2026
Excellent Bus Tour! We had a great time. My son loves military history and he really enjoyed seeing the sites and viewing the monuments. My daughter loves traveling and she learned a lot as well. It was a baby friendly bus ride. I would recommend taking littles to bathroom before you go as there is only one stop on the tour.

Awesome tour and learned a lot from the friendly driver and guide, we got to get out and explore a few spots
Tom_S, Aug 2026
The tour was great. The guide was very knowledgeable and made the battle sights come alive. It would have been even better if he would have spoken with the mic closer to his mouth due to the engine noise. But otherwise, it was very enjoyable. Thanks! Amazing!

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.

Excellent guide. Very knowledgeable and we enjoyed the stories. We did not realize the scope of fighting, the size of the battles and the sad loss of so many young American boys. Should be on every Americans bucket list.
