What people are saying about Gettysburg
We had a great time on the horseback tour and would highly recommend this tour. The staff that provided the horses was friendly and well organized. They gave a great explanation of how to handle the horse. So even if you aren't an experienced rider, you will have a great time. The water bottle holders on the saddle was a great touch especially with our August ride. The tour guide was very knowledgeable, clear and easy to understand.
The guide was very knowledgeable and talked the entire time about the battle. He was humorous too! The pace was perfect! My mother who had only been on a horse maybe twice in her whole life was very much at ease on the gentle horse. We really enjoyed the two hour tour!
