Join a professional tour guide on a small group walking tour to honor military & war heroes & witness the Changing of the Guard. See Arlington House, Kennedy Memorials, the Tomb of the Unknowns & more
This 2.5 hour walking tour includes stops at President John F. Kennedy's gravesite, the Tomb of the Unknowns, where you will witness the time-honored tradition of the Changing of the Guard, Arlington House, and much more, with an optional extended self-guided audio at Iwo Jima Marine Corps Memorial.
We don't just show you the sites; we tell you the stories. You'll hear the actions of Medal of Honor recipients and understand why family members can be buried here, too. Learn about military funerals and understand the symbolism on the headstones.
Pay respects to the only two presidents buried in Arlington Cemetery, John F. Kennedy and Willard H. Taft.
At the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, we'll learn about what it takes to be a sentinel and how the tomb is guarded 24/7 in any weather.
We'll experience Arlington House, visiting the "Slave Quarters" and Museum to learn why Robert E. Lee's house became a military cemetery.
Visit the Military Women's Memorial to learn how women have contributed to the American military.
While we end the tour inside Arlington National Cemetery, we provide a free self-guided audio tour for anyone who wants to complete the 15-minute walk to visit the Iwo Jima Marine Corps Memorial just outside the cemetery with instructions on how to get back or how to continue to the nearest Metro.
