| The photos brought me into 9/11 & the recovery, making the "surreal" real. Something I believe everyone should experience. We had the honor of having the photographer/ artist as our tour guide. He has incredible talent & a heart to match! He knew & shared the story behind every photo. |

| This is a must see. Alot of the items are all but inches away from a hand. Respect and trears keep them save though. This is a must see and nothing like anything on such a personal level where I lost my fire fighter brother. The stopped clock hit me HARD and the rest let's just say was a new river I unleased.
Thank you for making this personal and getting a real feel of items found and a story to go with each iteam. Simply push the code number into a a box and the head phones do the rest. I was smilply AMAZING
Thanks again,

| Glad I took this Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour. I visited Ground Zero in 2004. When I read about this tour this year, I thought it sounded interesting & definitely wanted to do it since I was going to be in NY Sept. 12-18, 2007-6 years since it happened. Nothing gruesome but of course, some sad moments when you hear the stories behind the pictures. |

| Definitely a must see if you are at all interested in Ground Zero and/or 9/11. Very well done with plenty of pictures displayed. Short but concise descriptions given of each photo and item. We weren't rushed to leave the "workshop". |

| I was amazed at the level of effort that has gone into this Museum. It tells stories that we would otherwise be unaware of. This Museum is a must to see, as it captures the physical effort and the emotional effect on everyone that was involved in the 9/11 tragedy. I found it to be a very powerful and yet uplifting experience. |

Best thing we did in Manhattan

| The ground Zero museum is very hard work emotionally. It shows in photographs what happened after the cameras went away during the clean up. It is a small intimate setting, but don't mistake this for a lack of value for money - there is masses of information and photographs to help you to understand what the recovery workers went through as they cleared the site ready for redevelopment. You book in advance, and there were only 11 people in the museum when we went, which made it easier to cope with all the detail. The video footage makes even the toughest cry, but somehow, it is done in such a positive way that for all the emotion, you are glad you went. Lewis is lovely, and very helpful, and if you are lucky enough to attend when Gary is there,as we were, then he will sign your books and pictures for you, and spend all the time you need to make this the best value activity of anything we did during our stay in Manhattan. It isn't for children, but for the right group of adults it is a remarkable story told in photos, and I would recommend it to anyone. |

| Great place to visit to appreciate 9-11 (although obviously very touching). We were fortunate enough for Gary to be present during our tour so we really got the upfront and personal. I would recommend attending! |

| This is one of the best museums. There is just so much information all packed into such a little room. It was time very well spent. I recommend it for anyone who wants to go beyond what you see on TV. It was a very moving experience. Thank you so much to the photographer that has allowed us to explore these images. It was truely a Must See. |

| This tour was so emotionally moving. 911 affected every American. By being a witness to the tragedy , this tour helped with healing and understanding of what New Yorkers went through on that day and what it took to overcome this. Gary was there along with his helper Sean. They made me feel so welcome and so grateful for coming to their workshop. It has to be the most memorable part of my trip to New York. Thank you Gary, and God bless you for what you did with your museum. |
