What To Expect

Eisenhower National Historic Site

Here we can take an optional detour off of the Gettysburg Auto Road to visit the Eisenhower National Historic Site, which overlooks the battlefield. President Eisenhower often stayed here.

Little Round Top

Our drive passes Little Round Top, a critical skirmish site on the second day. Here Union soldiers just barely hold off Confederate troops, maintaining their control of this strategic hill. As we drive around the hill, we'll cross the Valley of Death -- an appropriate name for the site of such a bloody skirmish.

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

Was amazed at the vast open areas where the battles took place. Hard to imagine those same spaces filled with the thousands of brothers fighting with one another. Very sad.

Thanks so much for your feedback! I’m delighted that my tour of Gettysburg Battlefield added to your learning and that you enjoyed it. I also have 100 other self-guided tours for other parks, scenic drives, cities, and historic sites in the US — hopefully, you’ll get the chance to try them next time! Also, to remind you, the tour you bought is yours for a lifetime. So, you can listen to it at home or on your next visit.
