| My wife and I have just returned from a 5 day trip to New York, in which we tried to do everything! Left the hotel after breakfast every day and stayed out 'til late every night, taking in nearly every main tourist attraction going. The Ground Zero Museum is an absolute must for those visiting NY, very emotional as you would expect but done for the right reasons and in the best taste - all proceeds go towards charities associated with 9/11. It needs to be booked in advance but I can recommend it so much if you get the opportunity to go - you will be amazed by what is there. The museum is based in one room, which may sound bizarre but you will comfortbaly spend 2 hours in this room and still be intrigued by its contents and photos. The founder of the museum was the offical photographer for the FDNY and he was actually there to answer questions as well, it was a truly fascinating experience not to be missed if you're in the Big Apple. |

| If you go to NYC make time to see this museum. We saw and did all of the typical tourist things (Empire State Building, Time Square, etc) but I would say that this museum was the most memorable thing we did on our trip. Take two hours out of your trip to take this tour. I will be worth it and something you'll never forget. This is all about the lives and stories after the tragic events on 9-11. The clean up, the lives lost and the lives impacted. It can be, at times, very gut wrenching but well worth it. |

| The video,artifacts and photograph descriptions were very tastefully done and provided a very moving insight into the horror of the day.
Amazing that such a small museum could hold our attention for a full 2 hours. |

| Truly earns its nickname as the "biggest small museum" in NYC. It was a humbling afternoon. |

| Well documented and very informative, done very well, kind of surreal and a great way to honor those who passed in this tragedy and especially to honor the workers who tirelessly worked for many months in the recovery effort. |
