This was a walking tour which is always abetter way to see places properly and take in the atmosphere and surroundings. Our guide, Dwyane, has been doing this tour for several years and knows everything there is to know about Arlington. He is a very personable character, who listened to our interests and tried to tailor the tour towards any specifics we had. The cemetery itself is an immense space with a view hills and I found it a very atmospheric moving place, it brings home to you how many personnel have made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. Highly recommend it.

It was great! The tour guide was very knowledgeable; the only issue was the heat, which was out of control. Wear comfortable shoes and take water for all the walking you will be doing.
