One not to miss - Kevin was great! Knowledgeable, articulate who set the scene brilliantly with the right mix of historical detail and by relating many personal and human (and canine!) experiences. Two hours well spent. I would highly recommend this tour

9/11 memorial tour - Wonderful tour guide by “JF”, made the experience powerful and thoroughly informative. Recommend you allow plenty of time to take in the whole trip as there is a lot to appreciate.

Definitely glad we did... - Definitely glad we did this tour instead of just doing the memorial and museum on our own. It was so much more meaningful to hear all of the personal stories and see all of the different areas of Ground Zero affected by the events of Sept 11.

Best tour of 9/11 around - Emmeline was our tour guide and she was brilliant! Very knowledgeable , answered all our questions but didn't overwhelm us with information which was perfect so we were able to take all of it in. She included fascinating facts regarding 911 and shared some personal experiences too. Overall we were all really happy with our tour experience and would happily go again with Emmeline.

Informative & Insightful Tour - Very informative tour. Kevin did a great job relaying not only facts but his personal experience. I came away with a much greater appreciation for the tragedy and the impact it had on the city and its residents. Highly recommended.

Very good. More facts and less emotion next time. - It was a good experience overall. The tour guide was very enthusiastic in a local New Yorker. It would’ve been nice if it were more fact-based less emotion based. This said, it was thoughtfully led.

Do it yourself - Seeing the memorial that you can do free of charge anyway. No need to book this tour as can be done on your own. We learnt nothing new and 2 hrs was way too long talking about unrelated things. Also we purchased the skip the line tour and skip the line museum however when the guide gave our tickets… the museum had a booked time, not skip the line! As it was pouring with rain there was no queue so we were able to go straight in. There is nothing in this tour you can’t do yourself for free and just pay for the museum Very disappointing
