Just did the two-hour ride today. Awesome experience. We have made several trips to Gettysburg or…read morethe years and have taken several tours. If you haven't done a horseback tour this is the place to go. They are awesome and have very well cared for and beautiful horses. Our guide, Mr Less, was very knowledgeable and fun to listen to. Bottom line.....If you want a great experience with some education and a heaping serving of fun - THIS IS IT!!!

Went out this afternoon. Great trip! The guide was great, made the whole ride into a story!…read moreBeautiful ride through the battlefields. If I could change anything, the rear trail guide was a little dramatic and was not happy with Levi the horse. Each time she yelled out, I would get lost in the story and would loose at least 5 minutes trying to catch up. May have just been she was having an off day, so I think only fair to rate how I felt overall about the ride.

Staff were fun, easy to engage and made all participants feel welcomed and comfortable no matter their riding experience. As a solo party they made me feel welcomed and included. The horses were wonderfully well behaved. The tour guide was knowledgeable and easy to engage. The tour guide informed us that this is a female owned business and is highly ethical. They have many horses so they never have to use the same ones each day. Would definitely recommend and will be returning I'm sure!

You get a two hour horseback ride through some trails following where the Confederate Army marched…read moreup into Seminary Ridge up to where the main battle occurred. The pros: The staff is awesome. They get 6 stars. They did a great job explaining safety and how to handle the horse. This is extremely helpful for those with no riding experience. They provide helmets and a radio receiver with an earbud to listen to some canned recording explaining some background of personnel, battles, and music.You get to ride right next to some historic buildings and farmhouses that you wouldn't be able to on a road or bus tour. The cons: Unless you get a certified guide, they are not allowed to narrate the history of the battle as you ride along the trail. We did not have a guide along with our group for the ride so it was fairly quiet most of the ride. Unless you are very well versed with the locations of the army units and battle locations, the ride might be a bit confusing. If you can tie this into the end of a visit to Gettysburg with the museum, film, bus or car tour, then it will be a blast.

I can't recommend this experience enough! My sister and I…read morefelt very at home and not once felt out of place. Terry and her team are very welcoming and super knowledgeable on the history of Gettysburg and the horses. You can tell the staff cares and loves all the horses that they work with. They knew all of their quirks and past history. All these horses are rescued and it is so amazing to have the opportunity to contribute to this organization and ride a horse who has been built up by this amazing caring team. I had the pleasure of riding Gus who is an ex Amish work horse and the gentlest giant. Terry is truly so kind, accommodating, and very educated about the history of the battlefield and her horses. Her story telling was great and I could picture everything happening as Terry was explaining it to us. Terry also gave us the confidence to mount and ride our horses through the trails and how to properly handle them. The views were amazing and we had a great view of the blue ridge mountains in sight. We also had the pleasure of a nice breeze brushing through the peaceful battlefields as we rode the very tidy and well kept trails. If I could do this everyday I would and I'm so thankful to Terry and her team for giving my sister and I this experience to always look back on and remember. If you're looking for something to do in Gettysburg don't miss out on this horse tour, not only will you have a great experience but you'd be supporting a fantastic team and all that they work so hard for. Thank you for having us Terry and we will definitely be back!

Wow - This was way better than I expected! My husband was having some foot trouble and didn't want…read moreto walk all day so we found this option, since I love riding. These people are exceptional because they have rescued the horses and they literally teach you about horses so you can be a very comfortable rider (how to read their ear cues, why they stop, how to bond with them) even if you never ridden before. The horses were all well trained and even tempered so don't worry if you are taking the kids, they will love it. The history that you see and hear is amazing and would be impossible to do by yourself in a car. They really explained what the families who lived in the farms went through as well as the soldiers, doctors, officers and battlefield horses. It really was the best way to see and learn about the Gettysburg battlegrounds. I really can't say enough good things about the experience. If you can get a spot, you're lucky!

Saved the day!!

Their hospitality leading up to the ride was fantastic, the weather was a bit 'iffy' so we ended up pushing back to later in the afternoon. It was still a bit cold and overcast when we arrived and we ended up being the only couple to join them. Blankets were in the carriage waiting for us and we were greeted as soon as we pulled up, the ride was enjoyable and informative... we learned about the farm and a bit about the battle, both Bill and Bonnie were super friendly and it was a pleasure to meet them! After the ride was over we had the opportunity to go back to the barn and meet all the horses. We learned more about each of them and got to feed them carrots, absolutely worth the price and a ride we would definitely do again, hopefully under better weather next time!

If you only take one guided tour at Gettysburg- do this one!! It was AMAZING - an experience I'll…read morenever forget!! These guides are highly trained and specialized and insanely knowledgeable- we had excellent discussion and so much in depth learning about the battlefield as we trotted along. The carriage is Victorian style and very comfortable- and ours was pulled by two gorgeous Percheron mares, Kate and Trina - sisters!! They were so beautiful and so sweet! Sarah and Bogey (sp??) were our our drivers and they were so great to the horses and very skilled at handling anything that came up. Our guide was Chris and he was just incredible- I'd be shocked if there was anything he didn't know about Gettysburg lol!! Even his ancestors were part of the battle! Not only did he provide tons of info about the ins and outs of the battle, but he also dropped fun little pearls of trivia along the way - things like how the shapes of certain monument bases have different meanings and how the "avenues" were put in for tourists lol!! The guides have to pass a rigorous learning/testing regime to even be able to do the tours so you know they know their stuff! The tour is totally fun - but also treated with the utmost respect for the gravity of the subject - so many lives lost - such a tragic and heavy piece of history. I strongly urge anyone to take a guided tour on your visit - interacting with such knowledgeable guides really helps get a better understanding of the battle and the core issues etc. The tour starts in town at the Gettysburg Heritage Center - very easy to find and plenty of parking. They pick you up in the carriage right out front and off you go! The tour lasts around 2 hours and they let you interact with the horses afterwards if you want! Can't recommend it enough!!

I believe if we had more people like him giving history tours the generations now would be more interested in learning. Well done sir!

I like that she'll ask questions of us and that she may differ in opinions from the masses. I didn't always agree. like her take that Sickles "blunder" wasn't detrimental I'd enthusiastically suggest hiring Mary for a 10 hour tour, longer if you want. Let her know had sickles stayed in position, the 20th Maines bayonet charge not needed. It was highly risky.

I checked out the website and was surprised how affordable the tour was. When we got there, Ed took us in and got us signed up. The tour lasted about 2.5 hours (close to three with the breaks). It was very informative and we hit all the highlights of the town and the battlefields. There is only maybe one or two stops where you can get out and take pictures....but you get familiar with the area so you can drive back through at your leisure and take all the photos you like wherever you choose. Would I recommend this tour company? Absolutely! There are also other ways to see Gettysburg (horseback, mini motorcycle/carts)....but a bus tour I think is the best way to go!

He knows his stuff and we all walked away knowing things that we didn't before! The bus was rad!! The horn is the best! We did stop at a McDonalds so we could get food, refreshments and use the restroom. I thought this was a great idea as the tour was 3 hours. You don't stop and get at the attractions but it's so helpful knowing where all the roads lead and exactly what happened and where. Audio recording was used VERY briefly. Maybe 15 minutes total. Other than that it was Glen talking Thank you for a fantastic ride!!
