What To Expect
1
St. Paul's Chapel
We will start the tour at St. Paul's Chapel, New York Cityā€™s oldest public building still in continuous use. Just one block away from the 9/11 attacks, it miraculously survived the falling building and debris. St. Paulā€™s Chapel served as a makeshift rescue center during the aftermath. Its iron fence became a bulletin board where family members posted notices of their missing loved ones. Today, with the mementos received from people around the world supporting New York City, the church serves as both a landmark and a tribute.
2
The National 9/11 Memorial & Museum
You'll enter the 9/11 Memorial, where you can pay your respects to those who lost their lives in the World Trade Center. Take a moment at Michael Aradā€™s ā€œReflecting Absence,ā€ a man-made waterfall that symbolizes the void left behind by tragedy. Learn how the names of the nearly 3,000 victims were placed around the waterfall next to their friends, family members, and colleagues. See the new Freedom Tower and World Trade Center rise from the ground.

My wife, daughter and I had the pleasure of a Private 911 tour with Nick Hoge. We didnt know what to expect but from the first moment we met Nick we knew it would be something special. Nicks knolwedge and delivery was awe inspiring. The topic is clearly very personal, emotive and still raw. Nick made this unique period of history come alive for all on the tour with his encyclopaedic knwledge and "nothing is too much trouble" demeanour made for a highly engaging, educational and moving experience. 911 changd the world forever and much has been written about it but to experience it from one with such a personal angle on it made it even more special. I would recommend the experience to all - especially with Nick

A truly wonderful time being led by Nick our guide(pic). Very personable and knowledgable recollecting (some personal to Nick)and reflecting about the tragic events of that day. Had time to interact and answer questions. Definitely a 5 Star experience would thoroughly recommend (hoping you get Nick)
