  It was a great experience. The guide was knowledgeable and the staff great. It was better than doing a bus tour.

  Great people, great history, a perfectly well mannered horse who knew what he was doing, and just about the right length when your life doesn’t normally include a saddle.

  Knowledgeable and personable guide. Great storyteller. One would believe that he was there in July of 1863!

  Ken Rich is a Gettysburg historian par excellence. His knowledge of not only the town but the battle itself is unequalled. At less than $20 for a two-hour walking tour,... read more Victorian Carriage Company's prices can't be beaten! On this tour, we covered the area from the David Wills House up Stratton Street, across to Gettysburg College, over to Washington Street and back to our starting point. Although I've studied the battle most of my life, I learned much about “Heckman’s Battery” (Battery K, First Ohio Light Artillery), the brigade of Colonel Leopold Von Gilsa and the 45th New York Infantry. On his tour, Ken provides pertinent illustrations and precise details on how the look of the town, including the routes of famous roadways, have changed in more than 150 years. He even validates his reason why he believes the monument to Gettysburg's most famous soldier, Sgt. Amos Humiston of the 154th NY is in the wrong place!
