We had a wonderful tour of the Gettysburg Battlefield site from Licensed Battlefield Guide Debra Novotny. We signed up for a 3-hour guided tour and it was WELL worth the fee--we could have listened to her share amazing stories, historical context and fascinating background information all day. Debra knew our group was from Minnesota and Wisconsin and pointed out contributions from soldiers from our state all over the battlefield. She knew her history--and herstory--and happily answered our many questions with warmth and good humor. It was an engaging, personal tour customized to our interests and we enjoyed every minute. If Debra is your guide, you are guaranteed to learn everything you wanted to know about Gettysburg, with a kind, curious and personal touch. Her passion for this beautiful site, and for sharing its beauty with others, is obvious--and contagious!

I got hooked on the Battle of Gettysburg Podcast and tried to secure a tour with the hosts, Hessler or Lindblade. Unfortunately, they were not available, probably because we were scheduling for one of the busiest weekends at Gettysburg, the Remembrance Day Candlelight Illumination Weekend, Nov 15, 16,& 17. So I called the Gettysburg Foundation and they gave us Dennis. Let me tell you, our initial disappointment soon dissipated as Dennis was wonderful! Knowledgeable, easy going and quick witted, Dennis was the perfect fit for our silly group of four. Thank you Denis for bringing the battle to life for us and also accommodating our collective eccentricity. We would highly recommend getting Dennis if you can get him.

Our tour guide Ed was awesome. We went on a 3 hour car tour around the battle field. He took us through each day and explained how the battle was shaped. His knowledge of the battle was phenomenal. Ed was able to answer every question we had. The facts of how the battle played out was very informative. My wife and I highly recommend this tour!

Amazing foundation to go to and see the guns, uniforms, and other items used during the war. The artifacts are well taken care of and displayed. Entrance is free but donations are accepted.
