Dash was great. The weather was so hot we were not able to do the tour. Dash took us to Kennedy's memorial and we concluded at this point. I would definitely recommend this tour to others but do not do the tour under such extreme conditions.
Jim was our guide. It was amazing! He knows his facts and made the experience absolutely wonderful and I would highly recommend!!
I do not recommend going in the summer. We did the earliest tour on a very hot day. A water bottle refill station was not accessible until an hour and a half in. The guide had to keep pausing her talk because of the fly-overs that drowned out her voice, which also caused the tour to last longer than expected. My elderly aunt tripped and fell on the last set of stone steps. Everyone in the tour group was very helpful, and firemen were called to check her out. She wasn’t dehydrated or seriously injured, so she was allowed to go with us. However, we waited on a cart that never came, and she ended up having to walk all the way back to the front while bleeding from minor injuries on her knee, hand, and face. The tour guide did reach out to check on her afterward. I suggest, though the lines may be long, you take the trolley instead of doing a walking tour.
Jim was a great tour guide. He had a wealth of knowledge and brought that to life when talking about the history behind the markers. I did not know that Lt Col Matt Urban was the most decorated medal of honor recipient. Also, I appreciate the fact that I could go on the tour on short notice when the other tour company cancelled on short notice due to the extreme heat.
Jim was AWESOME. We saw the changing of the guard from a vantage point the average visitor wouldn’t know about. Although it was during a record heatwave he made sure that everyone had a shade spot when he was pointing out points of interest
Overkill on information about people buried there. Would rather had just been general info on cemetery, JFK memorial and changing of the guard. I didn’t need to here about anybody else
Arlington National Cemetery is our most hallowed grounds in the United States, a miliatary cemetery where we honor our fallen heros. We are proud to share their stories on our tours, including the stories of the soldiers that guard teh Tomb of the Unknowns to remind everyone that serves we will never leave your side. If one only wants to see the Changing of the Guard and John F Kennedy's grave this is definately not the tour for them. Thanks for joining us!
This was an informative and enjoyable tour. Even though this walking tour took place in excessive heat, our guide was understanding and did a good job. I would certainly recommend this tour.
This is truly the only way to experience Arlington Cemetary. While all the trams are whizzing by, we actually had the opportunity to walk between the gravestones and pick up fascinating details about some of the more notable ones and also many we never even knew about, on our way to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Our guide Jim was the resident historian for the cemetery for many years and his intricate knowledge of the place was a joy to behold. The overall experience is what a visit to this place truly deserves!
You could ride the tram and get some guys speaking through a microphone which you can’t understand or you can walk and listen to Jim share his passion for Arlington National Cemetery and some wonderful stories about the history and occupants. You can do this walk, he is walking backwards and talking almost the entire time. Changing of the guard will take your breath away. I’m 70 and my 12 year old grandson loved it as much as I did. Thank you Jim for the wonderful memories
It was so great. Really hot so be aware of that but our guide was awesome. She knew a lot of things about the soldiers who died in Arlington.
