Overview
Step inside America’s most historic cemetery complex—a 13-cemetery landscape where George Washington’s pallbearers, a Soviet spy, and the highest-ranking Confederate general 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 cemetery complex. We don’t recite scripts—we share discoveries we made ourselves: graves rediscovered after 200 years and confirmed by ground-penetrating radar, along with stories drawn from archives other tours don’t use.
Small groups, quiet lanes, and keys that open gates most visitors never pass. If you want an Alexandria 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 for stories you won’t hear anywhere else.
