What To Expect

St. Paul's Chapel

We will start the tour at 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 miraculously survived the falling building and debris. St. Paul’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 Arad’s “Reflecting Absence,” 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.

The National 9/11 Memorial & Museum

For those with 9/11 Museum option selected, you will be provided with special timed entry tickets to minimize wait times. Museum entry time will be based on availability. Our guides will give you a preview of the museum and what to expect so you can plan accordingly, and still have time to see other sights important to you. The Museum visit will be unguided, so feel free to enjoy it at your leisure.

Tour guide Alison Rose gave us an excellent tour of the memorial and surrounding area. She struck a perfect balance between personal, reflective, informative and humorous. We appreciated the unique knowledge and perspective of a resident New Yorker.

Our tour Guide Daniel was excellent, very informative, took lots of time answering questions and provided additional information that I did not know about! Our visit was much more meaningful by having the guided tour. His experience that day provided additional insight! I would recommend highly taking the guided tour and if you are lucky Daniel will be your guide! The museum was good as well, but if your time is limited, take the guided tour!

We recently went on the 9/11 walking tour with Elizabeth. She was very knowledgable and made the experience very rememberable and eye opening. We learnt so much on her tour and is definitely an experience we will never forget. Thank you Elizabeth!
