Well worth it - John was a very good guide. Easy to talk to and knowledgeable. Having a guide allowed us to enjoy the surroundings without trying to figure out where to go. Would recommend this tour

Recommend booking a tour 100% - Trevor was our guide and he was awesome! I had walked Arlington before but the grounds are so vast, I recommend booking a tour so your time is well spent. Trevor provided so much good info that we wouldn’t have known and brought us right to some great key areas. He spoke at a great tone and volume and walked at a pace that was comfortable. Highly recommend Trevor and these tours!

Our walking guided tour... - Our walking guided tour of Arlington Cemetery was both moving and informative. Dennis, our tour guide, was exceptional—knowledgeable, respectful, and passionate. He shared powerful stories that brought the history to life and made the experience truly meaningful. The highlight was witnessing the Changing of the Guard ceremony, which was both solemn and awe-inspiring. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting D.C.!
