History and views . Staff was informed and helpful. I hate surveys that demand a certain number of characters

Our guide, Helen, was fantastic!! She was very informative and shared several important details about the significance of the details of the memorial. Her warm personality added to the experience and we would highly recommend her! My husband and I, our 24 yr old niece and our 19yr old son all attended. The entire experience, the memorial, museum, observatory & ocolus, was incredibly moving and is a must see.

Knowledgeable, informative, passionate and enthusiastic guide. Brought a tour to life, sharing true, moving and very human stories about people who were victims of the 9/11 tragedy.
