Oversigt
With 25 years of working knowledge of Arlington National Cemetery, the Pentagon, Congress, and DC – Eric Hommel (Lt Col, USAF (retired)) is the only Cemetery 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 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 max 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 the Cemetery we recommend shorter tours with other companies
Eric is the author of: THE LOSING GAME: HOW TO LOSE A WAR AND FAIL VETERANS (Amazon)

Anmeldelser fra rejsende
Guide was extremely knowledgeable and engaging- just be sure to bring water if it is a hot day! There is a lot of walking!
Hands down, this was the most incredible experience during our time in DC. Eric is an amazing guide, connecting you to the history of Arlington through stories about those who impacted its legacy and those who are resting there. The information he provides is engaging and memorable. He ensures your visit checks the boxes for your interests. Our visit to Arlington was made exponentially better thanks to Eric. We left feeling connected to the history, humbled by the heroes resting there, and thankful to have the knowledge he shared. If you have the chance, don’t hesitate to book this tour. You will not regret it. Our tour group consisted of high school Girl Scouts, leaders, and their families. All said this visit was “10 out of 10”. Thank you, Eric, for going above and beyond to make this a visit of a lifetime.
Eric was a wonderful guide! We could not have asked for a better experience! 10/10 would do this again!
This was such a fabulous tour with so much history and insight into Arlington and how it came to be. We were introduced to several notable sites and of course the changing of the guard was wonderful to witness. Eric was so interesting and was able to provide me with the area and tomb number of the young man I was interested in visiting, which I greatly appreciated. I would recommend this tour highly.
Eric was informative, entertaining and truly loves what he is doing. We had an incredible experience!

Eric was an outstanding guide on our tour of Arlington National Cemetery. His knowledge of the cemetery’s history, the significance of the memorials, and the stories of those laid to rest there made the experience incredibly meaningful. He was engaging, respectful, and answered every question with patience and insight. Eric’s passion for history and his professionalism made this tour unforgettable. I highly recommend him to anyone visiting Arlington and wanting a deeper understanding of this remarkable place.
