This morning, visit Arlington National Cemetery. A narrated tour takes you to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the Kennedy gravesites. This afternoon, make a stop at historical Front Royal for some free time before traveling through the beautiful mountains of West Virginia to White Sulphur Springs, arriving at The Greenbrier, the world-class resort that’s been welcoming guests since 1778. This evening, dine amid the grandeur of this historic resort.
The Greenbrier Resort
With a storied past to explore and every resort luxury available to you, it’s time to enjoy all The Greenbrier has to offer. This is a place steeped in history, from its earliest days when its natural mineral springs drew guests to “take the waters,” to its long-established status as an elite retreat, where five sitting presidents had already stayed before the Civil War. Imagine these same grounds, repurposed by the U.S. government as well as the army during periods of war over the centuries. Take an introductory tour of the vast property before continuing on a guided tour of the formerly classified government bunker built under the West Virginia Wing in the 1950s. The rest of the day is yours to spend as you please throughout the resort. Fill it with relaxing pastimes* such as croquet, horseback riding, swimming, or shopping, enjoy a traditional afternoon tea, or try your luck at the Greenbrier Casino Club. Enjoy dining at the resort once again this evening.
