NYC 9/11 Memorial and Museum Ticket with Tour Options
Cheryl_P, Sep 2026
A complete history of that sas day and weeks to years after.
This museum had so much information and the way it was presented was sobering. This museum is not a quick glance into 9/11 but a very throughout and complete memorial to all that died that day. I recommend you have several hours to go through this museum to truly understand what happened that sad day.

Don't sleep on this tour
NYC Grant Central Station Secrets tour was excellent. Tour guide was informative and as a life long New Yorker, offered fun facts. Saw so many things that you would walk right past. We really want to see the Tennis Courts and got to take a peek. It was the perfect amount of time. Great for new visitors and Cool New York Citys who have been to NYC many times. Very Knowledgeable. Highly recommend. Easy to meet up and price was also reasonable

Really enjoyed the tour
I was very lucky as it was a warm and sunny September day. Michael, the tour guide is very knowledgeable and presented this in a very funny and witty manner. Did the 1 1/2 h tour due to some time constraints on my part. Would happily do the longer tour as the longer tour is supposed to take you all around Manhattan.

Great experiencing the city from the water - a boat ride plus city tour! Having the leader to describe the sites is so much better than audio tour or the like. For 1 1/2 hours, you cover so much!
