Our Guides

Meet your licensed Gettysburg battlefield guides

Every walking and bus tour is led by a guide certified through the Association of Licensed Battlefield Guides — the same demanding exam used by Gettysburg National Military Park. That means accurate history, no filler, and a guide who can answer the hard questions.

The Team

Historians who live the ground they walk.

Our guides live in and around Gettysburg and Adams County. Each departure is led by an Association-licensed Battlefield Guide. Roles below are sample specialties for this concept — not named people or live credentials.

01
Sample role · Licensed Battlefield Guide

Walking & hike specialist

Leads Battlefield Highlights and the Little Round Top & Devil's Den Hike. Day Two ground, Cemetery Ridge artillery, and the ridges you can actually walk.

Tours stay on primary sources and the landscape. Guests can ask questions without a headset, because the group stays small.

02
Sample role · Licensed Battlefield Guide

After-dark & civilian-history specialist

Leads the Ghosts of Gettysburg Lantern Walk through downtown Gettysburg — Lincoln Square, the Wills House streets, and the civilian record after dark.

Stops tie back to letters, diaries, nurses, and townspeople. History after dark, not a haunted attraction.

Sample role · Licensed Battlefield Guide

Bus & private-sunrise specialist

Leads Pickett's Charge Deluxe Bus Tour and the Sunrise Private Battlefield Experience. High Water Mark stops, an ADA-accessible coach loop, and dawn routes capped at six.

Private dates can follow a regiment, an ancestor's unit, or the July 3rd assault on Cemetery Ridge.

Sample role · Licensed Battlefield Guide

Families & school groups

Leads mixed-age walking tours and school groups across all three days of the battle, at a pace that works for first-time visitors.

The landscape stays the lesson: ridges, monuments, and stories students can still place on a map after they leave the field.

Sample reviews shown for this concept design.

"Our guide made three days of history feel like one afternoon. My kids still talk about Little Round Top."

Karen D.Little Round Top & Devil's Den Hike · Hanover, PA

"The lantern walk was genuinely moving, not gimmicky. Every stop tied back to a real name and letter."

Ray P.Ghosts of Gettysburg Lantern Walk · New Oxford, PA

"Booked the bus tour for my in-laws who can't walk far. Comfortable, well-paced, and still packed with detail."
