| Words cannot describe how incredible/memorable of an experience it was. The guides were great. Convenient numeric audio documentary w/ 2 videos to see. Can peruse items and photos at your own pace. Allow for 2-3 hours. MUST-SEE if going to NY. |

| Our visit was highlighted by the fact that Gary Suson was actually there and gave us very personal insight into all the photographs and artifacts recovered from Ground Zero. All displays and photos are easily identified and keyed to a personal audio device that allows everyone to move through the museum at their own pace. Each photograph has a unique story and the visit was a very moving experience. I would recommend it to anyone except very young children. |

| The photographs, artifacts, and the accompanying story lines (on the audio devices) provide insight and little-known stories about an event which changed the world and the US forever. |

| The museum is amazing! The narration is very touching and provides insight into the events that cannot be found anywhere else. There are many fascinating (and a few very unusual) objects that survived the attack. Visitors even have the opportunity to handle many items.
All visitors to New York City should visit. It is an unforgetable experience. I highly recommend it! |

Excellent Museum Workshop

| This activity is a must for anyone who wants an "insider view" to the post 9/11 work at the World Trade Center Ground Zero site. The two hours allocated to this workshop is barely enough to take in all of the information available at this activity. This workshop tour may not hold the attention of small children for the entire two hours as it is a self guided activity, though there are artifacts from the World Trade Center Ground Zero site that will hold everyone's attention for at least the first hour.
I highly recommend this tour as a non-strenuous way to remember the events of September 11, 2001 and the ensuing months of recovery work at the site. |

| my wife and i took our 8 yr old son and 5 yr old son. tastefully done so that my boys could be there, learn, and not have nightmares. GREAT job, Suson. on the negative side, we did have our vehicle towed b/c we parked in an area that wasn't clearly marked. |

| We Americans have a tendancy to forgive & forget....all to soon! Gary has done a great job of documenting 9/11. Although the displays are super, I recommend you take a few minutes to look at his book which is for sale. It contains many more photos that are not on display at the museum. |

| hi dont let the Size of the museum alter/change your intentions!! It is the equivalant of a studio apt. of sorts!!
the tour lasts 30 mins. Complete with the audio 'tour' included... Very Powerful!! as only few could recall upon this tragic time!!
a bit difficult to find,,, yet the web page does help w accurrate directions... i live just outside of chicago!! and it's Defintely worth the $25!!!
REMINDER!! IT IS NOT NEAR GROUND ZERO!!!! That memorial 'museum' is good yet 1/2 the price,, and 1/4rth the Intensity!!
i specifically came to new york to see Ground Zero plus a couple of other things.... THIS MUSEUM MADE MY TRIP!!
i took the subway!! so all some time yet Enjoy!
