    This was my second time riding the tour trails but my first time with this company. Absolutely…read moreoutstanding service. 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.

    We had the privilege of joining Bill and Bonnie on one of their horse-drawn carriage rides around…read morethe farm. 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!

    From the owner: Come enjoy a one-hour horse-drawn carriage tour at Silvershire Farm just a 15 minute drive north of…read moredowntown Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Ride with us through the picturesque countryside landscapes and orchards of Adams County. In the spring witness the beauty of the orchards as the trees begin to blossom. In the fall view the majestic colors of the mountains and surrounding hills as the trees change to yellows, ambers, and scarlets of the fall. The rest of the year enjoy the beauty of the rolling hills, countryside fields, and orchards as they begin to fill up with various fruits and crops in preparation for harvest. Enjoy the leisurely and relaxing pace of your carriage as it is pulled by two gentle giants, our Shire draft horses. Along the way you will also see an Elk herd as well as a variety of other animals. We will narrate your journey with a history of the area during the Civil War Battle at Gettysburg, as well as that of the orchards and the history of the Shire horse. At the end of your one-hour ride, you can meet and take pictures with your team and feed them treats. *Kids and adults like this part of the tour.* Click the “Book Now” button on our website to view available tour dates.

    I never leave reviews but they knew this one was coming. My daughter's 4th Birthday was ruined…read moretoday. I've never been so humiliated in my life. I spent a lot of money to provide our own food,  decorations,  games, pinata, and crafts. I arrive at 12 to set up for the party at 1:00. Im greeted in a rude manor that they weren't expecting me yet. We wait around then are lead to a barn with an all dirt floor. TRASH in front of the barn.. a broken window screen and random junk. Right inside the barn is a huge pile of trash and junk. Could be rats or animals living in it. Not safe for 4 year olds. Im given 2 dirty tables and no chairs. This was the moment  I started crying. I wanted to leave and take my daughter some place else but people were going to be there at any minute. They try to make it right by bringing a dirty patio table and moldy chairs. Did I mention no heat? Most my guest stood for 3 hours. Dust is getting all over the food. I will give credit where it due. We were doing a repunzel party and one of the girls wore the outfit..she was great with the kids. The riding was okay. I think the arena could have been kept nicer and horses could have been cleaned up better. We made the best of what we could and I have photos to back up all of this review. I wouldn't let my dog have a party here and would not recommend any preschooler coming here. The trash is a hazard. I was offered a partial refund but this isn't about the money. This is a respect issues. Take my money and get a dumpster in there. What should have been a magical day was a total embarrassment.

    This barn is like a second family to me. The people are so kind and so forward going. Ashley is a…read moregreat barn owner, and the rest of the staff is full of hardworking employees. We put the horses first, so before making assumptions about said horses, ask. Many of our horses are rescues, so perfect looks don't come like 'that'. It takes time. Ferrier is out when needed, Stalls are done everyday, if not twice a day. All horses are UTD on medications, shots, etc. They get hay 24/7, inside and outside. Water is 24/7 as well, outdoor troughs and indoor buckets. There is so much more I could add, but in conclusion I love the barn, and I couldn't ask for better. :)
