| We were very fortunate to have Louis and Gary Souson there when we visited the workshop. It was very moving and we would highly recommend it. |

| The Ground Zero Museum is a small intimate location that deals in a very sensitive and positive way with a delicate subject matter.
It portrays the events of 9/11 in a very human manner. Both my wife and I would highly recommend this exhibit. |

Not much of a "tour".

| The Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour wasn't much of tour at all. The "tour" consisted of a group of about 20 people, huddled around a flat screen monitor, watching a rerun CBS News episode of an interview with Gary Marlon Suson. Mr. Suson was apparently the "Official photographer at Ground Zero for FDNY). We were then left to browse the pictures, and random items collected, and on our wireless handsets listen to brief explanations about them. The room was crowded and cluttered with what looked to be peoples personal belongings. Almost as if someone lived there..... We didn't stay long. |

| We as a group thought the workshop was a very emotional experience. The human stories contained in the room were very moving and the descriptions of the entire historical event helped to describe some very personal tragedies at an individual level. |

NOT A MUSEUM AND A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME!

| BE FORWARNED. This 'museum' is actually a 500 sq. ft. appartment packed with photographs and memorabilia from 911. When you first walk in they there is bad new age music playing and after a very sappy speech hey make you watch an incredibly poor quality recording (sound included) of a CNN interview with the photographer. After that you can stay to watch the pictures or you can leave. We left.
This attraction is a complete scam and I believe that 3000 poor souls must be turning in their graves for being so shamelessly exploited. Fot God's sake save your time and money and do not encourage these hustlers. |

| Visited the museum after seeing the Ground Zero site and visitors centre. Museum was well organised and the numbers in the group were just right. Guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic and answered all questions asked.
The pictures are amazing telling very different stories and emotions.
Well worth a visit |

| This was a very good tour and the photos and videos were excellent. Part of the tour was very emotional especially the videos
It was great being able to discuss the photos with Gary who took the videos during the recovery effort at ground zero after the 9/11 attachs.
I would recommend this visit to everybody before they go to ground zero because yoget a better idea of the site and what happened during and after the attach. |

| It felt like I was in someone's bedroom and I didn't feel the right atmosphere, partly because the kids just wanted to get out of there and because people were getting in my way. |
