Taxes and fees will be calculated at checkout
Overview
Led by public historian and cemetery superintendent David Heiby, this is the only tour with on-the-ground permissions inside a 13-cemetery complex where George Washington’s pallbearers, a Soviet spy, and the highest-ranking Confederate general lie within a single square mile. We don’t recite scripts—we share discoveries we made ourselves: graves rediscovered after 200 years and confirmed by ground-penetrating radar, plus stories pulled from restricted archives other tours don’t use. Small groups, quiet lanes, and keys that open gates most visitors never pass. If you want an Alexandria guided tour that goes beyond King Street, this is it. Why it’s unique: led by the public historian who rediscovered George Washington’s lost pallbearer. 25+ years guiding and ⭐ 5.0 reviews. Historians, descendants, and locals send their guests here—the Alexandria guided tours choice for real access and original research.
