One must visit this sobering site. The Museum is partially on the grounds of Tower 2 and some of the foundations are visible. Melted firetrucks damaged vehicles and various other artifacts of that dreadful day abound. Those who perished as a result of the terroristic acts are memorialized.

HORRIBLE. We booked a tour and our tour guide didn’t even bother showing up.... very unprofessional and left us standing there waiting in the cold.
-
Excellent guide. Told stories of individuals. Made it personal for us even though we live in Texas. My granddaughters were touched by stories even though they were not even born when it took place.

We booked a tour with Uncle Sam's through expedia for a tour of the 911 memorial. When we showed up at the agreed upon meeting place no one was there. We phoned the number given and were told our reservation did not exist and since we were there already we could just walk over to the memorial. He blamed expedia for not passing on the info, and yet when we checked with expedia they contacted the vendor and our reservation was found right away and money refunded. We were very disappointed with having the tour cancelled which we had been looking forward to and planned our day around it and extremely disappointed with the customer service response and that he lied about there being no reservation, even though we had proof and had prepaid.

This museum is very well done it is tasteful and classy. It is a somber and sober reminder of the events of that day . I think it would be impossible to tour that museum without experiencing great emotions. It is a fascinating collection of historical objects and it tells a story from start to finish. It has powerful images and it puts you right back on that day. The mixing in audio from that day also makes the experience more intense. Being from Nebraska it was interesting to see the location of all the events of that day. The effort to clean up that site is nothing short of monumental. Going here makes you sad; but it is an important thing to do.

Great tour! Our guide knew a great deal of information about the city and was very friendly. Wear comfy shoes because it’s a lot of walking :)
-

Goosebumps were raised with fear and anger both at a time. It was ghastly act of terrorism. Its beautifully preserved monument.

Nice small group of only 5 of us. Our guide Fred was a helpful weath of knowledge. So informative and interesting. He was on the site when the attack happened Dan’s gave us some insight of his personal story. The tour and then the museum tour that followed was incredible. Really appreciate having this experience and i am thankful.
