Jaclyn was a phenomenal guide!! She “knew her stuff” and shared the emotion of 9/11 through stories and facts. Kudos to ExperienceFirst for hiring such knowledgeable and effective communicators!

Our tour guide Paul was very knowledgeable about the events of 9/11 and made the tour enjoyable even though the weather was a bit chilly.

Sean’s tour of Ground Zero, and the 9/11 sights, was one of the best, if an historical sight, that I’ve been on. He didn’t just give a “nuts and bolts” tour. He took us back to that day, starting with where he was and what he was doing, to individual victims and first responders. When individual experiences are described, it brings much more meaning to the tour. Great job, Sean!!Great
