Excellent tour guide. For the price I was disappointed I had to pay extra for tour in the museum. Not sure it was worth the price for 1 1/2 hr tour and then on your own.

Every part of this tour was great. Liz guided us thru many aspects of Ground Zero with many stories of that day. After 1 1/2 hours she left us to explore the museum on our own. Spent 3 hours there. The observation deck’s view on a clear blue sky day was incredible.

It was a wonderful trip so sad but I am so happy I saw it. The lives of so many people. We said a prayer before we went in. I think every American should see this. I can’t believe this ever happened. Please keep those families that lost a love one in your prayers.

The tour was highly informative, and really gave us a more in depth feel of the events of the day. Kevin our tour guide was excellent, sharing stories, accepting comments, very knowledgeable and show such great respect for somber event while bringing it to life.
