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.

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.

This tour is a "Must-see" if you want to learn more about what it was like to live through the horrific events that took place on 9/11/2001. Not only do you have the opportunity to visit the 9/11 museum, but you have a guided tour of ground zero and the surrounding buildings. Our tour guide, Ryan was incredible. so passionate, and personal in his sharing of this tragic story that unfolded on one of the darkest days in our nation's history.But what we love most about Ryan, and his tour, is that he always brought us back around to amazing stories that provide such hope despite the horrific circumstances. Bravo, Ryan! Bravo!!
