Gettysburg

The first shot fired at Gettysburg on July 1, 1863, started the three-day battle. Citizens were in a turmoil with a growing flood of wounded men being brought into town. Between 3:30 & 4:30 pm the Union lines to the west & north of Gettysburg crumbled and soldiers converged into one blue mass moving through the town with Confederates on their heels. There was fighting in the streets, alleys & yards, as the town's people sought refuge in their cellars as the war was brought to their doorsteps. Walk the streets and alleys with a Guide and hear the stories of the civilians who lived through these violent days as the battle spilled into the town of Gettysburg.

Honored Those Who Endured Real Tragedy

Our tour with Karen Saltzgiver was unforgettable. Karen is a storyteller extraordinaire—she gave us the fascinating scoop and wove together connections from the many individuals who lived in Gettysburg during the battle. She brought to life the struggles of those who picked up the pieces after the armies left, helping us see far beyond what any history book could capture. During our tour, her gift for storytelling truly shone, as did her talent as an actress. Later, during a reenactment, Karen moved me to tears in her role as the mother of Jenny Wade. She reached beyond the sensationalism of typical tourism and delivered a deeply realistic, heartfelt portrayal that honored the real people who endured real tragedy. Thank you so much, Karen! We’ll be sure to see you again next time.

Terry was a great tour guide. He answered all our questions and was very informative. We learned about Gettysburg through the eyes of the towns folks and how they reacted before, during and after the battle. We visited several buildings in the town and he made us feel like we were in the thick of things. I recommend this tour, you won't be disappointed. Terry made learning fun!! 😊
Fun and informative tour!

The information was extremely interesting unfortunately it rained the whole time we were outside. Thankfully my husband and I brought our raincoats and others had an umbrella. We moved over to the train depot and it had an over-hang. Very informative, enjoyed walking the streets and seeing the buildings and what went on there. Rob was our guide. Loved using the printed picture handouts.
