Why choose this Washington DC tour ?

Vigilance Tours is unlike other tours.

With 25 years of working knowledge of Arlington National Cemetery, the Pentagon, Congress, and Washington, DC – Eric (Lt Col, USAF (retired)) is the only Arlington National Cemetery tour guide who goes beyond the facts and figures and discusses the stories behind the facts and figures

The tour is interactive – by getting to know you, Eric strives to make the tour meaningful to you while maintaining the reverence of Arlington National Cemetery

In order to get to know each other, we limit the size of the tour group to a maximum of 12 visitors

No subject is totally off limits – Eric is happy to discuss most topics (history, politics, military decisions, treatment of veterans, etc.) defining those interred at Arlington National Cemetery

We will not rush you; the tour is scheduled for at least 3 hours, if you have less than 3 hours to visit Arlington National Cemetery we recommend the shorter tours available through other tour companies
