What To Expect

St. Paul's Chapel

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 survived the falling building & debris. St. Paul’s Chapel served as makeshift rescue center. The iron fence became a bulletin board where family members posted notices of their missing loved ones.

The Oculus

The outside structure of the World Trade Center Transportation Hub, is the subway entrance and extensive shopping center. The name comes from the strip of windows, or skylights, along the spine of the roof. Oculus is the Latin word for “eye,” which, in architecture, refers to a round or eye-like opening with a view of the sky. Take a look up through the windows, and you’ll see Freedom Tower.

The National 9/11 Memorial & Museum

Enter the 911 Museum with exclusive skip the line access. Admission to the museum is only included if that option is selected.

We had an informative and engaging tour with Vivien. Recommended for anyone who is interested in hearing a more personal perspective on the events of 9/11.

Simply bad! Booked through TUI Experiences, there was already some confusion in advance about when you should be where. The voucher lists various meeting points - when I asked, I was suddenly told that you could go straight to the museum, etc. I had booked 3 attractions in New York - but in the end I couldn't get into ANY of them. QR codes were missing and the provider was unreachable - neither for me nor for TUI. No one had ever seen a voucher like that on site and we were ultimately refused entry every time. Really poor - better to buy it directly on site, it's cheaper too. Pure rip-off.
