5.00Everything about this tour was great. Tom, our Tour Guide, was the best! He picked us up at Union Station early & spent more than the allotted time taking us to all the most specific sites. We so highly recommend him with DC Military Tours to anyone wanting all the must sees ~ he was full of knowledge regarding everything about Arlington National Cemetery.
Unforgettable Tours of Arlington

5.00The past two years, Aril 2023 and 2024, I have taken a grandson to DC during spring break and both times we employed Tom for our tours. He is so personable and knowledgeable and easily communicates with both adults and teens. On our most recent tour, my grandson said that if his history teacher was half as interesting he would have aced history, and our grandson from the first tour in 2023 was so impressed he talked about it for weeks afterwards and, perhaps because of Tom's own Navy service, chose to enlist into the Navy straight out of high school. Tom takes care of his clients, placing us in the perfect position to see the changing of the guard. His knowledge of Arlington and his reverence for the fallen soldiers leaves you with a renewed sense of patriotism and respect for this great country of ours. My wife Kathy and I highly recommend Tom for all your DC tour interests.
Look no further and BOOK IT!

5.00I can not say enough about Tom and the experience we had at Arlington. His personable nature and knowledge is beyond compare. It was like being with a family friend from start to finish! Tom was so accommodating to all of us (clean, comfortable beautiful vehicle, curbside pick up at drop off at locations of our choosing, sunscreen, cold water on hand just to name a few). He even went out of his was to to make my son wish come true to see Stumby the Cherry tree of all things! Tom and our tour was truly top notch and well worth it! We learned so much more with Tom than could have been done on our own accord. I highly recommend D C Military tours! It is something you will not regret. We will be using Tom in the future when we return to the area. If ease of travel, knowledge, comfort, true professionalism and a worthwhile memorable experience is what you are looking for.. stop searching! You found it! Thank you Tom!!!
Extraordinary Tour!

5.00Our family’s in-depth tour of Arlington with veteran Tom Schultz of DC Military Tours was extraordinary!! Tom is down to earth and mellow and made the tour fun and fascinating for all 3 generations of our family. We greatly appreciated the depth of his knowledge regarding little known aspects of history and the way he illuminated the complexities and ironies of Arlington’s history.
Top notch!

5.00Excellent tour! Our family of six went on this guided tour of Arlington National Cemetery. We were picked up at our hotel and had a comfortable trip to Arlington. The tour was perfect. He was able to customize it to our interests and we moved at a great pace. He was very knowledgeable and did a great job communicating with the whole group. I would recommend using this guide for any of your DC area tours!
Fantastic!

5.00This was one of five experiences we had with Tom Schultz from DC Military Tours. As other reviewers have said, Tom has an extensive knowledge of the National Cemetery and walked my wife and I around, pointing out the key internments and monuments and giving plenty of background and context. The Guard change ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknowns was as moving as you would expect and Tom's knowledge of the details of the ceremony was excellent. We also stopped at the Marine Corps memorial at the end of the tour. Tom is much more than a tour guide. He is a historian who also has the knowledge and experience of a 20 year Navy veteran. On a practical level he picks up from your accommodation and drops you back at the end of the tour (that said, on this occasion, he kindly dropped us in Georgetown). Tom's knowledge is extensive as you would expect. That said, his superpower, if you like, is the ability to pitch and flex your experience to exactly what you are interested in. In Arlington he will seek out areas or individual burials for you. For us he took us to some of the less visited areas of the cemetery where the Civil War and First War burials are and where the USCT lie. Tom doesn't necessarily follow a set route or script, he's too good for that, and he will 'call an audible' if he thinks a stop somewhere would be interesting for you as his listens to your questions and comments. Tom's enthusiasm for history is obvious and somewhat infectious, and this makes him a perfect guide. We would highly recommend DCMT to anyone.
