Must do tour - This is a definite ‘to do’ tour . Arlington Cemetery is so big that it would be easy to miss important areas of interest. The changing of the guards and laying of the wreaths was very somber . Our guide Lenwood was excellent

Fantastic - This was a 6-7 hr tour. Dwayne started us off at the Arlington Cemetery. What a brilliant young man and one of the best tour guides I ever had. James in the afternoon and his driver Kris was equally brilliant and enjoyable. They really took care of us. Loved the entire team.
