Vicksburg National Military Park
Welcome to the Vicksburg Battlefield! To President Abraham Lincoln, this site was the key to winning the entire Civil War. Confederate President Jefferson Davis felt the same! So let’s find out why it was so important, what happened here, and what it all meant. Note: This 15-mile-long tour covers the essentials of Vicksburg Battlefield in 2-3 hours.

Vicksburg National Cemetery
This is the Vicksburg National Cemetery, the final resting place for 17,000 Union soldiers. For many, it’s their second burial ground. How come? During the war when a soldier was killed, their comrades dug a grave close to the action. There wasn’t time to do anything else! A simple wooden cross with their name carved on it sufficed as a grave marker. Hundreds of markers like that dotted the landscape. When the war ended, the US government tried their best to locate all these markers and made every effort to give these men a proper burial.

We had a great time seeing and hearing about this great battle. The park rangers have done great in showing and designating where both sides were and how the Union Soldiers tried to approach many different ways. Great story telling and loved how it just kept telling story without having to pay attention to app the whole time. Note that currently road is closed between locations 20 - 27.

Hi there, I’m glad you enjoyed my Vicksburg Battlefield Self-Guided Driving Tour and appreciated the storytelling and seamless audio. It’s great that the tour gave you a deeper understanding of the battlefield and its history. Thanks for noting the current road closure between locations 20-27—my tour is valid for a year after booking, so you can always revisit and catch those stops once the road reopens. If you’re interested in more historical adventures, check out my Historic Battlefields Self-Guided Driving Tour Bundle, which includes Shiloh, Antietam, and Yorktown tours. Happy exploring!

This was a well informed tour. Gives a lot of information and facts. I just didn’t like there was a lot of info on those Yankees. 😡

After looking forward to our only day, a Monday, in Vicksburg to tour the battlefield, I purchased the self-guided tour a few weeks ahead. However when we arrived at the visitors center that morning, it was closed. We were not able to activate the tour. Very disappointed. Instead we used the free NPS app. I feel the tour option I paid for should have mentioned it was not available on Mondays.

Hi Andrea, Unfortunately, you couldn’t download and activate the tour. Once you book, you will receive detailed instructions via email and a tutorial video for easy setup. My tour is available daily and isn’t affected by visitor center hours since you can set it up and use it anytime. The good news is that your tour remains valid for a year, so you can revisit it whenever it’s convenient. If you need assistance, my support team is available from 5 AM to 5 PM EST to help with any setup issues. I also recommend checking the official site for any location updates to avoid last-minute closures. Let me know if I can assist further!
