| The dvd presentation and displays are excellent and the museum is definitely worth a visit. However, there was too much emphasis in the commentary on the photographer and his role. The actual event was so horrific that the Gladiator music, kleenex box and the occasionally over-melodramatic accounts were superfluous and attempt to play too heavily on the visitor's heartstrings. I also did not think it was neceassary to make so many religious references. At one point Suson (approximately) refers to the fact that the event happened because one culture didn't understand another. However the vast majority of muslims did not condone the terrorists' actions. The international condemnation of this appalling tragedy and Al-Qaeda's actions should remain secular rather than religious to avoid setting one religion against another. |

| This was an AMAZING tour. Very emotional due to its up close and personal touches. I left feeling overwelmed in such a nice way. Thanks so much for all the time and effort this took to put together. The guides were knowledgable and friendly. LOVED IT!! although the people we purchased the tickets through were not the best. but the folks at the museum made up tri- fold for the rudeness. Thanks!!! ;) |

| This is a must-see activity for anyone interested in 9/11 history and artifacts. The photographs captured the devotion the rescue workers gave to the solemn task they were given. We were honored to have the photographer, Gary Suson present on the day of our tour. He was humble and informative. The time flew while we were there. It was a very moving experience. |

| Although a small museum the Ground Zero Museum provides great stories. Really touching stories and everything is very well executed. I can warmly recommend this experience to everyone. |

| The Museum was a very moving experience. We had the privilege of meeting Mr. Suson and that enhanced our visit. The entire world should be exposed to these moving, terrible moments in our history so that we do never forget.
Zerve was also very helpful when we had to make a change.
Thank you |

| What an excellent opportunity to learn more about the human side of the people and events involved in the WTC and the personal trauma and loss to those involved. This is a beautifully presented, somber, and reflective exhibit. The photographer, Gary Suson himself , was present at the museum which humbled me and gave the images grace in his presence. From the tragic events of 9/11, Mr. Suson presents his work in a healing atmosphere that brings people together and reinforces the thought that we must "Never forget". I will never forget this museum and its powerful significance. |

| I would highly recommend this museum and we were very fortunate to meet Gary when we visited. The photos and artifacts display not only the pain and anguish of September 11, but also the resilience and strength of America and her people. They remind us that for short time we came together simply as Americans, regardless of our differences in politics, religion, race, culture, etc. They remind us of our potential to do so again. |

| This is probably the smallest museum in NY but the one that left the biggest impression. |

| this museum is small yet very intimate. you see and learn so many things you might not have known about 9/11. its very personal and you get to learn about the lives and stories of the familes that worked and lived through 911. i would recommend this to anyone going into the city. it was a great experience. |
