Journey Through America's Most Historic Cemetery Complex

Overview

Step inside America's most historic cemetery complex — a 13-cemetery landscape where George Washington's pallbearers, a Cold War Soviet spy, and the highest-ranking Confederate general buried in Alexandria lie within a single square mile. Led by public historian and cemetery superintendent David Heiby. This is the only tour with on-the-ground permissions inside the full complex. Every story comes from primary-source research we conducted ourselves — including graves rediscovered after 200 years and confirmed by ground-penetrating radar. Small groups, quiet lanes, and keys that open gates most visitors never pass. Led by the public historian who personally rediscovered George Washington's lost pallbearer. ⭐ 5.0 reviews.
