Arlington National Cemetery
A sobering reminder of the realities of war, the Arlington National Cemetery is a beautiful tribute to over 400,000 service members and their families buried there. Learn about the more famous tombs, like that of President John F. Kennedy. Explore a few surprising graves, like that of famed boxer Joe Louis. The cemetery is even home to memorials commemorating the disasters of space shuttles Columbia and Challenger. Along with a few carefully selected residents like Audie Murphy, your guide will take you to the Tomb of the Unknowns where you may even witness a Changing of the Guard ceremony. Walk these hallowed grounds to learn how the home of Robert E. Lee, whose Arlington House we’ll visit, became one of the country’s largest national cemeteries.

Arlington is a must visit. It’s beautifully laid out and full of rich military and political history. Our tour guide, Maribeth, had excellent knowledge of both the layout and all that was represented there. Unfortunately for us all, the weather was truly awful and lashing down with rain. This is a tour that really needs to be dry otherwise it’s pretty miserable and means you are restricted in where you can walk and how far you can see. Even the amazing changing of the guard was much shorter because of the weather. It was such a shame because this really is a fantastic place and we definitely couldn’t take full advantage. That said, Maribeth was a trooper, she carried on with her tour and didn’t complain at all. I hope we matched her spirit. I would recommend this tour and Maribeth, it’s a 5 star experience, we just got really unlucky with the weather.
