Jack was friendly and engaging. He seemed well educated in the history of the era. He kept us entertained. We had a good time

Overview

As the site of one of the bloodiest battles in American history, the Battle of Gettysburg led to the death of over 50,000 people. This 3-day battle has influenced dozens of stories about ghosts and hauntings, many of which you’ll hear about during this walking tour. Some tales are more historical than haunted, though the traumatic conflict has left its mark on sites like the Gettysburg Hotel and The Union Hotel where spirits reportedly lurk.

Gettysburg Ghost Tour

Jennifer_T, Oct 2025
It was fun. Our guide Oliver was extremely nice and very sweet, but easily distracted by everything and everyone around us, so she kept going off topic and the stories would be interrupted or she would often have sidebar conversations with others passing by. The tour ran over 20 minutes longer than it should have and we were freezing and several people actually just walked away at one point when the tour should have been over. The other tour guide who began when we did was done and walked past us and she actually stopped mid sentence to yell over to him and ask where his people were. He simply said they were done and everyone left. Meanwhile, we still had stops to make, requiring us to backtrack areas we had already walked by. Again, Oliver was extremely nice, she just could be better focused or organized.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Hello, Jennifer! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We’re glad Oliver’s kindness and warmth stood out. We also appreciate your detailed observations on timing and focus, which we’ll address to make future tours smoother. We hope you’ll join us again under better conditions.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Amber was the best! She was so knowledgeable and had a great personality! She was awesome to interact with and my daughter and I had the best time! Definitely recommend this tour and having Amber as your guide!

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you for the wonderful review! We're so glad you and your daughter had such a great time with Amber - her knowledge, personality, and warm interactions truly make the tour special. It's fantastic to hear she made the experience so memorable for both of you. We truly appreciate your recommendation, and we couldn't agree more - having Amber as your guide makes for an unforgettable adventure!

First Ghost Tour

Susie_H, Aug 2025
This was our first ghost tour. Amber our tour guide was AWESOME! She was very knowledgeable and made the tour enjoyable. Being our first ghost tour I didn’t know what to expect, I was hoping for more interaction such as touring inside the houses etc. This tour would be good if you have children or you want to know the history of the war. Overall we had a good time.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you for sharing you experience! We're so glad Amber made your very first ghost tour enjoyable with her knowledge and storytelling. We appreciate your feedback about wanting more interaction and indoor exploration, and we'll keep that in mind for future tours. It's great to hear you still had a good time and found the history engaging - especially for families or those new to ghost tours. We hope to see you again for another adventure!

If it looks and smells like a 'Money Grab', it probably is.

Janet_T, Aug 2025
Worst tour. The 'ghost' tour started out with our guide (Bridget) doing a card trick and went downhill from there. While the guide recited stories of the battlefield, etc., 'she' never really linked it back to why we were on this ghost tour? I went with a group of 6 adults and everyone could not believe that we had spent $1 for this tour, let alone $30. The guide spoke in disjointed sentences and never really conveyed any amount of spookiness to the story. Other guides were dressed in period garb. Our guide was dressed like she was going on a summer picnic. Clearly we were the victims of poor guide selection possibly, but picking the guides is totally out of our control, I feel like we have to assume that the companies that Viator hosts on their platform would do a better job at this. I reached out to Viator for a refund and they suggested we do another tour instead. as compensation. Many other tours in town offer a money back guarantee. I would search for one of those when booking your tour. Stay away from this one due to the inconsistency of quality tour guides.

Ghosts!

Evening of entertainment

Linda_O, Jul 2025
Be ready to walk and enjoy the paranormal. We had a great time and when the sign post started shaking when no one was near it that was truly a little scary. Loved it and apparently so did one of the ghost.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled you had a great time - and that unexpected moment with the shaking signpost sounds like quite the paranormal encounter! It's always exciting when the spirits decide to join the fun. We're so glad you loved the tour (and that the ghosts did too)!

All of the stops were a very comfortable walking distance from the starting point. Our guide, Taylor, was super friendly and knowledgeable.

It was ok

Amy_G, Oct 2024
It was ok… I love ghost tours have done several. Sherrie seemed distracted a bit. I feel we didn’t go to all stops that’s were listed.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Hi, Amy! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re disappointed to hear that you felt your tour was lacking and that Sherrie seemed distracted. Our goal is to provide an enjoyable and complete experience.

detailed and great tour

Emily_C, Oct 2024
Great tour, very informative, the tour guide Daniel was very knowledgeable. The only thing we thought would happen was to maybe go inside of some of the sites to make it a little more spooky. All in all it was a great tour.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Hi, Emily! Thank you for joining us and for the positive feedback on Daniel’s tour! We understand the wish to go inside the sites, though our tours stay outdoors as described on our website. We’re grateful for your feedback and would be thrilled to see you on another tour soon!

Don’t waste your money.

Karen_F, Oct 2024
Not worth it. Perhaps it was just our guide, but we saw 5 places, including the place we started from. Guide was long winded and it seemed other groups that had different guides saw and heard more. Glad we didn’t pay extra for the “energy sensor” because they seemed useless.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Hi, Karen! We’re grateful for your feedback and truly sorry that the tour didn’t fully meet your expectations. It’s important to us that each guest has an engaging experience, so please contact us at guestrelations@wejunket.com with your booking information—we’d love the chance to make it right.

Fantastic!

Frank_H, Sep 2024
Jason was a fantastic tour guide I would definitely recommend him the tour was amazing I would recommend the 9:00 tour because it's a little bit more spooky walking around Gettysburg at night

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Hi, Frank! We appreciate your kind words about Jason and our Civil War Ghost tour! Thank you for sharing your experience, and we hope to see you again soon for another eerie adventure.

Spirits among us

Lewann_N, Sep 2024
Our tour guide, Linda, was very knowledgeable and full of stories of ghost experiences had by her and others. Jennie Wade history was very moving. We had our own EMF app and got pictures of Linda surrounded by 8+ orbs. A fun night!

Response from Host, Nov 2024

We appreciate your feedback and are thrilled you had a memorable night with Linda. The history, the EMF app, and those orb photos make for a spooky combination! Please join us again for more paranormal adventures!

A Late Summer Evening

Doug_D, Sep 2024
Jim our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and told the sometimes unsettling history of Gettysburg. Our tour was on a late Summer Friday evening…..occasionally the local traffic noise masked a few of the words. However, we are not alone in this world…. Or the next.

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Hi, Doug! We’re delighted that Jim’s expertise, personality, and storytelling made your tour so special. His dedication to sharing the real history of Gettysburg truly sets him apart. We hope to have you back for another unforgettable experience!
