We will start the tour at St. Paul's Chapel, New York City’s oldest public building still in continuous use. Just one block away from the 9/11 attacks, it miraculously survived the falling building and debris. St. Paul’s Chapel served as a makeshift rescue center during the aftermath. Its iron fence became a bulletin board where family members posted notices of their missing loved ones. Today, with the mementos received from people around the world supporting New York City, the church serves as both a landmark and a tribute.
The outside structure of the World Trade Center Transportation Hub, is the subway entrance and extensive shopping center.
Enter the 911 Museum with exclusive skip the line access. Admission to the museum is only included if that option is selected.

Alice our tour human was amazing. She is superb friendly, engaging and knowledgeable. My friend, Christine from Colorado and I from NY enjoyed the experience. It was more than we expected. Thank you!

My husband and I and another couple went on the tour yesterday. It totally exceeded our expectations. Our guide Jaclyn was outstanding. She was interesting, informative and personable. We learned so much. Thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it.

Davidson gave us such incredible details on the history and emotion of 911 and NYC’s resurrection, woven with his own memories. Even when the Navy Seal parade jogged through our tour (all buffed and shirtless) he didn’t lose a beat! Truly worth every penny and much thanks to Davidson!!!

The last time I was in New York was pre-9/11, so I had been wanting to get back to Ground Zero for years. I finally had an opportunity to do so recently when my son and I were there for a baseball stadium trip. I’m thoroughly glad we did. Out tour guide, Richard, was an excellent guide, and he tremendously enhanced the experience with his first hand experiences. He related what he was doing that day as the events unfolded, what others were doing and who some of the major players were. He pointed out O’Hara’s, kiddy corner from Ground Zero, which was where numerous first responders sought out food and a break from their rescue efforts that day. Richard’s knowledge and own experience added to what overall was an emotional , moving experience, which of course made me and my son both reflect on what we had been doing that day. Take this tour, hope you have Richard as your guide, and stop in O’Hara’s afterwards to have a cold one and see the walls and ceiling lined with first responder patches!

Truly meaningful way to go in depth concerning the events of 9/11 from a very personal and poignant perspective. Although very, very sad, it was so important to learn from someone who experienced this tragedy firsthand. Our guide, Ray Victor, explained everything thoroughly without being too wordy. What especially made the tour come to life for me was that as we were standing in different areas, Ray would hold up pictures from the same spot we were standing on taken during the events that happened on 9/11-made it very real. This tour is well worth the time and money, and Ray deserves the highest rating possible. We allowed ourselves 1 1/2 hours in the museum-could have used at least another hour.

We had a great guide in Jim Q. His personal stories on what he witnessed on Sept 11 and beyond that really made this a special tour. His emotions in telling of that day were surreal. Most of us watched from TVs as the events of 9/11 unfolded. His eyewitness testimony really brought a new perspective to this tragedy. I highly recommend this tour.

This tour brought 9/11 to life for our family. Walking what was the devastated area of Ground Zero, and hearing what that day was really like, helped us imagine the magnitude and feel the emotion of it all. Liz was a wonderful guide and an amazing story teller! Thank you for providing this opportunity!

Davidson was knowledgeable and best of all, somehow his voice was the perfect timbre to be heard clearly in crowds! His personal stories definitely enhanced our experience remembering that somber day.

This experience explains really what happened on the day those towers collapsed sadly. But our tour guide which I really recommends name is: Jaclyn. She’s so good at explaining everything and even shows you all around the town on the way to the memorial, and even at the memorial you can feel the sense of sad sadness that people experience on that September day. This is also good for history lovers as this experience gets your brain going! Then Jaclyn guides you (if you have tickets) she passes gets you past the long line and gets you in the museum! I’m going toRecommend another place near there is the World Trade Center observatory! You will se my review there too!

Excellent comprehensive tour of 9/11 Memorial, Ground Zero and 9/11 museum. Jim was an excellent guide and poured his heart and soul into his presentation. He actually lived through so many of the experiences that I had seen on tv. He was excellent. Highly recommend booking with him.
