Brian was OUTSTANDING for a tour guide. He knew all the facts from the historic event AND made it personal. I would highly recommend anyone to take part in an experience like that with him. Please be sure you recognize him directly for his superior efforts.

I learned many interesting facts that I was not previously aware. Events of 9/11, as well as the care and detail the designers and builders poured into the memorial itself. For example, the Survivor’s Tree, the Volunteers Path, the number of fountain drops, and the significance of the white roses.

Ryan was an awesome tour guide . He went into details explaining small details and experience. He also took time to answer questions and would let us share ours with patience and politeness never rushed us as we went through the tour. Hopefully when we do this again we will get him .

I have been there twice now. Loved it both times. Seems the guides all have a story “of their experience that day.” In the tower observatory where the blinds are closed keep moving. They want to sell you a better view. You can see it all on the next level down!

Informative but too expensive for history lesson

Our guide was very informative and interesting. The weather was very cold and we were outside for at least an hour. I think when it's cold they should poll their audience to end it earlier if need be. To be honest you can save some money if you buy directly on the official site for the museum and one world observatory and still save if you choose a guided tour. Lines were not long either.
