Experience the rich tapestry of American history just beyond the capital with our full-day American Heritage Virginia Tour. This 8-hour guided journey, conducted in a luxury vehicle with a licensed professional guide, brings you to the hallowed grounds, colonial charm, and riverside beauty that define Virginia’s historical legacy. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a lifelong learner, this tour provides a powerful and in-depth look at the people and places that have helped shape the nation.

Your day begins at Arlington National Cemetery, the final resting place for over 400,000 American service members and dignitaries. Here, you’ll visit President John F. Kennedy’s gravesite, view Arlington House (the Robert E. Lee Memorial), and witness the solemn Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier—a genuinely moving experience.
Next, enjoy a brief stop at the Pentagon, one of the world’s most significant office buildings and a symbol of U.S. defense, followed by a visit to the striking Air Force Memorial, which honors the dedication and sacrifice of the U.S. Air Force.

In Old Town Alexandria, stroll the charming cobblestone streets lined with colonial-era architecture and vibrant shops. Visit Christ Church, where George Washington and Robert E. Lee once worshiped, and view the towering George Washington Masonic National Memorial, a tribute to America’s first president and his legacy.

The highlight of the afternoon is Mount Vernon, George Washington’s beloved estate overlooking the Potomac River. Tour the mansion, explore the gardens, and learn about the daily lives of both the Washington family and the enslaved people who lived and worked on the plantation. A scenic lunch stop on the riverbank adds a relaxing and picturesque break to your day.
