Overview

Smaller-sized groups. Perfect for tourists AND locals wishing to learn more about the day that changed us all forever!

Your 2.5 hr, 1.4 mi. (2.25 km) walking tour will be led by a expert, local, licensed Guide. Tour begins in Battery Park and concludes at Ground Zero site; location of the hauntingly beautiful memorial pools in the footprints of the former, iconic WTC Twin Towers.

This comprehensive tour explores 9/11 and the World Trade Center and also New York's famed Financial District. You'll be captivated with stories of 9/11’s unsung heroes (some personal stories) and their selfless acts of courage. These stories will be coupled with comprehensive discussion that details aspects of the former Twin Towers from its origin to its infamy of becoming Ground Zero, to the rebuilding and rebirth of the majestic World Trade Center complex, once again. You’ll gain important knowledge, insight and perspective into what it was like living through the terrorist attacks and it's aftermath.
