If Only Jenny Would Have Stayed Home.

Chrissy was our tour guide and did a wonderful job. Very knowledgeable and a great story teller. We had a large group of people, but she made sure we all had time to take pictures and see all the relics in the home. Love that we could go inside the home; to see and experience everything as it was. Would definitely recommend!

Only provided half a tour

Being in the Jenny Wade house was great but we didn’t get to do the whole second half of the itinerary, which was to be “Gettysburg - The outside portion of the tour is 45 minutes long and includes light walking in the vicinity of East Cemetery Hill which witnessed intense fighting during the battle of Gettysburg. Be sure to bring your camera, as you never know what you may capture!“ I was really looking forward to the second part as well.
