Good tour - Good tour, hit the high points and provided history of the cemetery. Lots of walking and hills. If you are not active, you should pay for a tour via a cart. I’m sure we could have done this tour on our own, but it was nice to have a guide with us.

Good itinerary…lacks depth and accuracy. - Our tour guide was very polite and personable. The walking tour itinerary was the main attraction for us and we were happy with its pacing. The problem we encountered was our guide’s military and historical knowledge regarding Arlington National Cemetery. It was vague and, at times, erroneous. Depth of knowledge in these areas is an obvious criteria for the job. Hopefully this tour company will do a better job of screening, training, or both. Until then, this guide needs to do some research and study to improve their knowledge. The families of those at rest in Arlington deserve the best effort of those representing snd honoring their sacrifice.
