1. GettysBike Tours
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 341 reviews
Experience the most sacred ground in American history by the best means of transportation available: a bike. Unlike any motorized vehicles, on a bike you get a true sense of terrain which helps you understand the thinking of the commanders and the troubles units may have had during the battle. Next to walking the battlefield, the bike is the BEST and, some say, ONLY way to get the most out of a tour at Gettysburg. “It’s a humbling experience that I never got when I took yours in my car or on a bus,” one customer told us. “It made me feel small because it showed me how large an event this was and the courage these men had is something I don’t think I’ll ever have.”

Wow! DO NOT GO ANYWHERE ELSE! These horses are amazing! We had a blast for a Mommy & Me weekend. We’ve ridden before as my daughter takes lessons. I haven’t ridden in 25 years, but it was just like riding a bike. The horses follow the leader and are super easy. Teddy Bear and Honzi were fan favorites. We did the 1.5 hour ride one day and the 2 hour ride the next. The 1.5 hour ride consisted of a perimeter ride of the battle field. Super fun and very serene. The wranglers are awesome! Sara was so nice and Pam was so knowledgeable. Gracie’s dad was so sweet! Our 2 hour ride was full of history told by an amazing storyteller and historian. Well worth the money. The horses are big working horses instead of the usual quarter horses . I have to say that we preferred the bigger horses! We will be back!!

Reviewed By Pannipannini - Maryland, United States
It’s 3.2 miles round trip from the Moul Field start. The reward is a view of the mountains at the end. We had a hard time finding the beginning of the trail since TA only says Moul Avenue - which is too broad. It starts between the condos/townhouses and the treeline by Moul Field.
