Ultimate Gettysburg Self-Guided Bundle Tour

What your day looks like

Explore Gettysburg, one of the most important battles in one of the bloodiest conflicts in American history: the Civil War. Here, Union forces staged a nearly impossible defense against Confederate attackers--and won! Walk in the footsteps of Civil War soldiers, relive the battle strategies of the key Gettysburg generals, and embark on an adventure that brings this historic three-day battle to life. As you journey through the battlefield, you’ll also journey through time — following the harrowing events of the 3-day battle, as the two generals tried to outsmart and outmaneuver the other. You’ll learn about the bravery and humanity of individual soldiers. Best of all, you’ll visit Little Round Top, Pickett’s Charge, and the site of President Lincoln’s historic Gettysburg Address. Then, dive deeper into the harrowing events of that terrible struggle. Visit Seminary Ridge, where civilians found themselves swept up in the whirlwind of violence--and some even chose to fight back! Hear the history of the seminary, watch the battle unfold atop the ridge, and get a close look at the aftermath which reshaped the town forever. Walk through the boulder-strewn landscape of Devil’s Den, where some of the most brutal fighting took place. Here, Union and Confederate soldiers struggled to gain and hold control of this strategic location, but their efforts turned to chaos and bloodshed in the jagged terrain. As you walk amongst the towering boulders and alien landscape of the Devil’s Den, the tour transports you back in time to envisage soldiers, generals, and cannoneers battling all around you. Next, visit Little Round Top, the hill that served as the lynchpin of the Union’s entire defense strategy--and one which they left woefully undefended. Watch the frantic strategic maneuvering, suicidal charges, and raw courage of the men who fought to hold the hill, knowing that if it fell to the Confederates, the Union could be defeated entirely. Finally, visit the supernatural side of Gettysburg with our Gettysburg Ghosts tour. The Battle of Gettysburg was the bloodiest single clash in American history. Thousands of men took their last breaths on that fateful field, and thousands more were forever changed by the blood they shed there. For many such souls, this battle never ended. Centuries later, their stories continue… Uncover the mysterious, unexplainable events that still take place on the Gettysburg Battlefield, and hear true stories of paranormal encounters. This driving tour takes you through all the eeriest sites on the field. Visit shallow graves where shadowy figures move about in the morning fog. Hear about the soldier who, buried alive, still lingers in the cellar he shared with piles of dead men. Listen to eyewitness accounts of the lonesome apparition of a Union major general killed mere weeks before he was to be married.
