Requires people in good physical condition. No wheelchair, no scooters, no strollers. This is a walking tour through the Cemetery so dress appropriately with comfortable walking shoes. Also dress according to the weather. Your visit may be during the hot summer days or cold winter. So bring along an umbrella, a windbreaker or any other clothing items depending on the weather changes. Also bring bottled water with you in case you need to rehydrate. Since the whole visit of the Cemetery will be on foot, this tour is not recommended for people with disabilities or health impairment. It’s not also suited for babies and children. It’s a 90-minute guided walking tour and you will have to walk through grass to reach some gravesites. The tour starts at the John F Kennedy Gravesite and takes you to the Changing of the Guard and other highlights.
