Gettysburg, the moment it all turned.

Three days in July left a mark that never fully faded, and the fields still explain the fight. Action Tour Guide’s Gettysburg Battlefield audio tour tells the story of what happened here, in the order it happened, so the battle finally makes sense as you move through the landscape. Expect vivid moments, clear context, and the freedom to take your time at the places that hit the hardest.

What You’ll Experience
Day 1: The first shots crack across the open ground, and soldiers scramble for position as Gettysburg becomes the stage for history’s most pivotal clash.

Day 2: The fighting peaks on the legendary terrain of Little Round Top and Devil’s Den, where high-stakes decisions unfold on hills and ridgelines.

Day 3: The final push at Pickett’s Charge narrows to a single moment, leaving a haunting silence that echoes through the fields.
