Vigilance Tours presents a unique tour experience unlike other mainstream tours.
Our guide, Eric (Lt Col, USAF (retired)), has an impressive 25-year background in narrating the rich histories of landmarks like the Arlington National Cemetery, the Pentagon, Congress, and Washington, DC. Unlike other guides, Eric provides not just the raw data but also delves into the compelling narratives behind these key facts.
The tour is designed to be highly interactive – Eric personalizes the tour based on your interests while preserving the solemnity of the Arlington National Cemetery.
To foster a more engaging experience, we cap our tour groups at a maximum of 12 visitors, facilitating more intimate interactions.
Nothing is completely off the table – Eric is equipped to discuss a range of topics (history, politics, military strategies, veteran matters, and so on), shaping our understanding of those who rest in the Arlington National Cemetery.
