Five Stars!!!! Trouble deciding on a tour? Pick This One! - Exceeded our expectations. Do your best to achedule the tour earlier in the day for cooler weather and avoid the crowds. Maribeth, our passionate and very prepared guide, was organized, punctual, and accommodating for members of the group (finding shade where possible and restrooms when available). We were able to see the changing of the guard at the top of the hour and a wreath ceremony. Very cool! Thank you for a great experience. BTW - prepare in advance to be walking, and wear walking/running shoes.

Arlington tour - Changing of the guard is always memorable. I enjoyed the side notes from certain graves. Doug was very knowledgeable of Arlington. He had pictures on his iPad that he added to the tour.

Annemarie Johnson was the best - Annemarie Johnson was tremendous! She was so knowledgeable and experienced. She was super patient with my husband who had trouble walking: she would make time for him to sit and fill in talking points about the cemetery. We had a great spot for changing of the guards and she had us stand right by the soldier inspection. It was a great experience and I think Annemarie made it especially memorable.
