What people are saying about Gettysburg

Tyler told great stories and took time to help everyone on the tour. He let us discover things for ourselves without leading us. He also made it so clear to us that we needed to use the utmost respect while investigating. I really respect his professional approach.

Our guide was the absolute best. Very informative. He presented information in an interactive way - not dry or boring. Would definitely go back & rebook same guide (I don’t think you can pick tho). The hunt portion was neat.

It was great hearing all the stories of the people in Gettysburg during and after the battle. A very different perspective than a lot if other tours, we really enjoyed the tour and recommend it highly!

Our guide Mark was really awesome as he has a vast knowledge about the paranormal activities, history, and ghost activities in Gettysburg.

We had a blast! It was perfect for beginners wanting to explore the paranormal.
