About this tour
Balloon Rides, Murder, Tanks, Medal of Honor... some of Gettysburg’s colorful and unusual history happened in Taverns.

Your Guide will regale you with stories about Presidents, fires, civil war activities and Temperance societies. While you will not be consuming any food or drink during the tour, at the conclusion your Guide will provide each person with a voucher to a local establishment.
