When you stay at Passages Inn Gettysburg, we will be pleased to provide you with important information on Gettysburg attractions and things to do. A more personalized approach to itinerary planning than a brochure rack in a hotel lobby, we will help you find the activities that will make your vacation memorable and meaningful.

You come to Gettysburg to see the effect of the Battle. Next time, come to learn more about a cause of the war. Make a reservation for the Underground Railroad Tour of Adams County. http://www.freedomliesnorth.org

On your passage back in time in Gettysburg, experience the town from the point of view of those who lived here during the Civil War, with dynamic Guided Historic Walking Tours by Licensed Town Guides, based on diary entries, personal accounts, letters, drawings, photographs and independent research; phone (717) 339-6161 or 337-3491. Special tours focusing on women or African-Americans also available.

For a meticulously researched and realistic presentation of life inside a civilian home at the time of the Battle, don't miss the Shriver House Museum. Be sure to take time to look at the before-and-after pictures in the museum gift shop!

For stories of the spookier variety, there are plenty of ghost tours in town. We suggest Haunted Gettysburg, which takes you into the mysterious back alleys of Gettysburg to sites of actual accounts of hauntings. Based on the Gettysburg ghost story books by Bob Wasel.
