Ride through Gettysburg Battlefield as a licensed guide recounts the 1863 fighting and the importance of often-overlooked Culp's Hill.

About this tour

Ride into the story of 1863 on a two-hour Gettysburg Culp's Hill Horse Carriage Tour, where a licensed battlefield guide brings the fighting to life on location. Culp's Hill saw some of the longest sustained combat of the Battle of Gettysburg, yet visitors often overlook its role in favor of better-known sites.

Meet your guide and board a horse-drawn carriage fitted with clear vinyl sides that can be rolled down in case of rain. As you travel through the battlefield, hear how Confederate forces tried to overrun the Union army's strong defensive position on its right flank during the three days of fighting. Your guide explains why Gettysburg residents regarded Culp's Hill as one of the battle's most important locations and shares the story behind this pivotal ground.

Choose the Gettysburg Culp's Hill Horse Carriage Tour for a comfortable, guided way to explore a less-visited part of the battlefield and connect the landscape with its history. Take your seat and discover the story where it unfolded.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. GetYourGuide rates it 4.78 from 25 reviews. We place that rating among all GetYourGuide ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Gettysburg
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.8. Top 23% in Gettysburg means it ranks in the top 23% of tours in Gettysburg by this score.
