Bus Tours

Your Gettysburg Experience Starts With Us!

Tour the Gettysburg Battlefield on our famous open-air double decker bus (weather permitting) or enjoy an air-conditioned coach. Both are available with a National Park Service licensed guide.

All Gettysburg bus tours run approximately two hours in length and board five minutes before scheduled time. They depart from the Gettysburg Tour Center located at 778 Baltimore Street across from the National Cemetery. There is plenty of free parking at the Tour Center for your bus tour! Here’s a link to our Bus Tour Schedule.

Tickets for tour buses may also be purchased at most of the fine Gettysburg hotels, motels, campgrounds and other accommodations. For ticket locations, see Gettysburg Ticket Outposts.

Note:  Food and drinks are permitted but no glass bottles.

Please know that we continue to welcome visitors to Gettysburg. All current expert advice indicates that travel in the U.S. can continue as normal and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is encouraging the same personal best practices that are standard for a typical flu season – frequent washing of hands, use of sanitizing wipes and consulting with a doctor before traveling when sick, and staying up to date on vaccinations, etc. We will continue to follow the guidance offered by the CDC, as well as state and local public health authorities.  Gettysburg Tours, Inc. will follow best practices in cleaning and sanitizing our buses and facilities. 

Here’s a summary of our bus tour options:
