What To Expect
1
Gettysburg Heritage Center
A visit to the Gettysburg Battlefield is not complete without stopping at the Gettysburg Heritage Center Museum. The tour begins at either the Heritage Center or the National Park Visitor Center. If you’re not at either location yet, head over now. From there, we’ll follow the official Auto Tour route.
2
Gettysburg National Military Park Museum & Visitor Center
Embark on this journey into the past at the Gettysburg Visitor Center! Get ready to be transported right into the middle of the battlefield... both in time and space. As we begin driving along the Gettysburg Battlefield Auto Road, we step back in time to the eve of battle. Who are the combatants? The generals? What are they fighting for? Why? We'll dive into the history of the United States of America up to the point of the Civil War. That'll help us understand what made Gettysburg such a poignant battle, and why a victory here was so important.
3
Seminary Ridge Museum and Education Center
Our journey continues along the Gettysburg Auto Road as evening descends on the first day of battle. Union soldiers have paid heavily and lost ground. Is there any hope of success? We'll explore the various plans and strategies the generals come up with as they bunker down after the first day.
4
The Eternal Light Peace Memorial
As we drive, we'll pass the first of many memorials at Gettysburg - the Eternal Light Peace Memorial. This memorial commemorates the reunification of the United States. Maine granite forms the base, while Alabama limestone forms the pillar -- a symbolic unification of north and south.
5
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.
6
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.
7
State of Pennsylvania Monument
Our path brings us to the Pennsylvania Memorial. This monument commemorates the nearly 35,000 Pennsylvanian soldiers who fought in this battle. While the stakes were high for everyone, they were particularly intense for these men of Pennsylvania: they weren’t fighting for an abstract idea, they were fighting for their very state.
8
High Water Mark of the Rebellion Monument
The high-water mark of the Confederacy refers to an area on Cemetery Ridge near Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, marking the farthest point reached by Confederate forces during Pickett's Charge on July 3, 1863.Similar to a high water mark of water, the term is a reference to arguably the Confederate Army's best chance of achieving victory in the war. The line of advance was east of "The Angle" stone wall.

I’m sorry about your experience! It’s definitely surprising since the majority of our users have a great experience. I’d love to understand what happened in more detail - where were directions unclear? Were you able to start from the Gettysburg Heritage Center? And were you able to connect with us over support during your drive to receive immediate help? If not, please note that we’re available all day, every day! Call, email, or chat. We also have an extensive FAQ linked in the password email. Please don’t hesitate to reach out.

The driving tour was a nightmare. The navigation was not working with the signs. We tried to manually move from one site to the next but even that didn’t work properly. After two hour of frustration and we called the help number... “Mike’s “ Pakistani accent was so thick that his advice was useless. Mike asked us silly questions such as “did we download the app?” He was about as useless as the app itself.

Thanks for your feedback. The navigation issues you described typically happen when the route isn’t followed in order. This tour works best when staying along the marked Auto Tour going from 1 to 2 etc. We highly recommend starting at the Gettysburg Heritage Center and then following the route to Auto Stop 1. From there, everything is straightforward. The app also has a map feature that shows both the route and the stops to follow along. We are a small family business based near Boston. That means everyone who answers the phone (even if some have an accent) has a lot of experience with the typical issues that arise with the tour. Downloading the wrong app is extremely common... and the second major reason why the navigation appears “off”. Please note that we are also available over chat and email nearly 24/7. We’d be more than happy to share a gift card or refund since you didn’t have a stellar experience. We always want everyone to leave happy. Please email us via the website to begin the process.

We had difficulty with how it operated when we were unknowingly facing the wrong direction starting out. Wish there was more info other than being told to go straight continue forward. When we stopped part way through, my crew was aggravated and didn't really want to resume the next day. I cant imagine driving ourselves through this tour once the tourism season goes into full swing. Traffic and trying to believe we are headed the right way would be a safety concern in heavier traffic.

I’m sorry about your experience! I’d like to understand the part about facing the wrong direction at the start — do you mean when in the parking lot of the Gettysburg Heritage Center? We are trying to make that part very very clear so we would love to know exactly what happened. We can push out an update immediately after hearing back from you! Please contact us via the website. With the right directions, traffic isn’t usually a problem (in fact, it often helps because it gives plenty of time to dive into the Learn More topics or replay something interesting before arriving!). I think that if we can understand and fix that starting issue you mentioned, the rest would fall into place. Please reach out! We’d be more than happy to share a gift card or refund as well — looking forward to hearing from you so we can begin the process.
