The entire day was amazing. Edgar, our tour guide and driver, was excellent. He took us to Mount Vernon, Arlington Cemetery, and to view different monuments. He gave us descriptions and the history of all the sights along the way. He was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining. Of our family's week long trip, this was my son-in-law's favorite day.

The Arlington Cemetery/DC Highlights Tour is a very well planned and informative tour. Today's tour was so much fun over half of the tourists were international visitors to the USA (Korea, Australia, UK, Nigeria) Josh our tour guide did such a great job insuring everyone enjoyed and participated in the bus time conversations. Josh is very knowledgeable about DC sights, history, ties your home state/country to DC attractions and history. Highly recommend USA guided tours. Request Josh, he is the best!

We spent about 3 hours here wandering the grounds. So beautiful and the changing of the guard was an amazing site to see. They are truly loyal soldiers It was very warm and hard to find water, so make sure you take it with you. Also make sure you book both back and forth to the cemetery. Ours didn't include a ride back so we had to find a cab, not easy
