The guide for the Ground Zero tour was fantastic, really knowledgeable. The whole Memorial and museum tour is something everyone visiting NY should visit.

Walking tour was very informative. Arun, our guide was very knowledgeable. Museum tour (self-guided) was emotional and really brought the whole event closer to those of us on the west coast that watched all the events enfold on TV. So sad to relive from the photos, videos with voices and pieces of metal beams, rescue vehicles, etc.

Loved the walk to the museum with our tour guide Séan. He had great stories and did a fabulous job. He gave us information that we would have missed had we walked the grounds without a guide.
