Without a doubt, this is the best way to see the Gettysburg Battleground. You can arrange for private tours with the guide driving your car so you can truly take in the sights rather than watching the road. Normal tours are 2 hours, but you can arrange for longer tours. As a bit of a history buff, I chose a... More

Last Saturday, my husband, son, and I spent nearly six hours with Ted Gajewski, one of the Licensed Battlefield Guides at Gettysburg National Military Park. Knowing we wanted an in-depth tour without a large group, I called the LBGs several months ahead and left a message. We were very lucky our call was returned by Ted Gajewski. I had a... More

Absolutely hands down the best thing we did at Gettysburg. Our guide, Dave Donahue's passion for the history of the area made the battlefield come alive. We saw the movie and visited the museum before our tour, and with it, feel we not only have a better understanding of the battle, but of the entire war. He answered endless questions,... More

The best way to gain in-depth knowledge and understanding of the battles at Gettysburg and the Civil War is to hire a certified guide to drive your car around the battlefields as s/he explains the events od June and July 1863. The battles covered a large area and being able to drive there and hear the struggles and decisions is... More

Spent a week in the Gettysburg area with a Road Scholar group focusing on the Civil War. We were extremely fortunate to have the services of two great battlefield guides - Ted Gajewski and Ed Suplee. Both were not only knowledgeable and entertaining, but responsive and adaptable to the requests and interests (and abilities) of our group. As I noted... More

Three of us from California took a three hour tour on a cold January afternoon. We all agree that it was time and money well spent for a thoroughly enjoyable and lightening experience. This was my fourth time to the battlefield and second tour. We had guide Christina Moon who proved to be knowledgeable, an excellent communicator and delightful. These... More

One of the best things i've done. Experience the history of Gettysburg first hand. The tour begins and ends at the Gettysburg Visitor's Centre, where there's a great museum, including a movie and the famous cyclorama. We took the two hour private car tour with our guide, Jim. He was informative and knowledgeable. I don't think he missed out a... More

Signed up for a 2 hour tour and loved it. Hit all the major highlights and he made history come alive. Better than the audio tour.

We took the 2 hour tour (ended up being 2 1/2 hours) and were very pleased. The guide was knowledgable and tailored our tour to show us monuments and tell stories pertaining to our home state and even asked family names to see if he could help to connect ancestors. I enjoyed that the guide drove our car so we... More
