Tour the Gettysburg Battlefield:
Tired of dry, lifeless history lessons? Bring the Civil War to life with this exciting audio tour of Gettysburg, one of the most important battles in American history. Here, Union forces staged a nearly impossible defense against Confederate attackers—and won! Walk in the footsteps of Civil War soldiers, re-live the battle strategies of the key Gettysburg generals, and embark on an adventure that brings this historic three-day battle to life.

Explore the battlefield from the comfort of your own car or rental while you listen to a detailed, blow-by-blow account of the battle. Dive deep into broad history and personal stories alike, stop wherever and whenever you want, and truly immerse yourself in this turning point in American history.

As you journey through the battlefield, you’ll also journey through time — following the harrowing events of the 3-day battle, as the two generals tried to outsmart and outmaneuver the other. You’ll learn about the bravery and humanity of individual soldiers. Best of all, you’ll visit Little Round Top, the high water mark of Pickett’s Charge, and the site of President Lincoln’s historic Gettysburg Address.

RAVE REVIEWS:

“We had a blast. The history behind our nation and what shaped it to be today was fascinating to learn about. So much better than learning about it in school”

“Gave it 5 stars, but it deserves more! We spent 2.5 hours & could have done much more, but we had other things to do also. The GPS was so helpful."
