Definitely get a tour. It is huge, confusing, and takes hours of walking.
Carol Walker.... glad you and enjoyed going to Arlington Cemetery...... It is not a park! Very Hallowed Ground!!! I was there Friday before Memorial Day.... And I also participated in Rolling Thunder. GO ARMY!!!
No problem.
No problems at all
You will not have any problems at all.
They open more tours during the summer. You will be able to get a tour, but I reccomend you reserve ahead of time so you dont have to wait in line.
We went the Sunday before memorial day this year. We got our tickets upon arrival at the main building...lots of helpers stationed around to help. A good number of people, but it's a huge park. (Our first time so I can't really judge) Definitely do the hop on/hop off tour, this is what we did...and still did a good bit of walking around. Lots to hear, see and learn.
No
You need about 4hrs to see the place.
I would strongly encourage getting a tour before hand. Weekends are very busy and exploring alone can be overwhelming.
