| the wife and i were getting to the ground 0 tour and we thought it was the one we had paid for , but we ended up at the 20 $ tour instead at the const site , i frankly dont see why your tour would cost $25 a person sense you could not get any where down into the const zone , i know because i work for the dept of trasportaion ,, in NC and i know all about safety zones . and safey issues . As i was saying your brosure did dont make it clear enough about your sight being at 14th st and ??.. Please credit us our $52 back on our visa debt card . My name in Milton j Boone jr , call me to let me know you have credited me back our money , sense we could not have made the tour to your bad itenariy intructions . my email you know all ready please do this i would appreciate it , |

| I found the Ground Zero Museum by complete accident while looking at things to do while in New York, although it looked interesting we all arrived on the day not really knowing what to expect, I guess we all had that element of doubt as to whether it would be a little disturbing and possibly tacky but I have to say it has been the highlight of our entire trip.
We were lucky enough to have Gary Suson himself do the tour for us and I would say to anyone going to New York to go to the museum, there are lots of facts about what happened on the day, many photo's and artifacts from the actual site along with over 100 differen't commentries recorded by Gary himself explaining many things, it was a very emotional morning for our entire party and a very humbling experience, we all left feeling very drained but very pleased at the same time we did it, I wouldn't have missed it for the world.
This is a must for anyone visiting New York, take half a day out and check it out. |

| This is the second time I have been to the musuem, and the first time for my husband. We both found it moving, amazing and totally mind blowing. Gary is always such a great host and has so much time for the attendees. I would, as I have before, highly recommend this workshop to anyone who I know is coming to New York. It was magical. It reminds me every time just how much the American people stuck together and got through such a tradegy with love and kindness to each other. Thanks for allowing us the opportunity to see your photos and other workshop tributes.

| We were honored to have Gary Suson as our guide at the museum. The museum itself is intimate in nature, which you appreciate when you start hearing the stories behind each of the photographs. Gary was kind enough to answer and all questions we had about the WTC site, the photographs and the subjects of the photographs. Even with a second group coming in he made it clear we could stay as long as we liked. The museum really makes an emotional impact on you. Long after you have left that impact is felt and colors your day to day activities. It makes me appreciate the country we live in all that much more and reminds me that even after a horrific event like 9/11 instead of destroying us as a nation; it only was cause for us to bond together as a nation. |

| We finally were able to bring our 17 and 18 year old with us to New York. We brought them to the ground zero museum workshop to allow them to see first hand the impact of 911. As I expected, it was a very moving experience for all of us. We thought that the photographer Gary Suson did an extraoridinary job. God Bless Him!!911 changed our lives and has changed the future of our children. We know that our children will never forget our two plus hours at the museum and meeting Gary Suson themselves. It made a tremendous impact on them. It was a great education and gives them a little more strength to express their own views on the impact of 911. The woman that led our guide (I'm sorry, I forget her name) was very imformative, kind and sensitive. She could not have done a better job taking care of our needs that day. Thank you! |

| This experience is a transport back to the very rough times of post 9/11. It was emotional and at times difficult and impossible to hold back the tears. |

| I would highly recommend this activity. The pictures and stories were very moving. The actual photographer was there and was very personable and humble. I would recommend going to this before actually going to ground zero. |

| A harrowing, yet important collection of artefacts from September 11. We were fortunate to have Gary talk us through various elements.
I would HIGHLY recommend this musuem to anyone visiting New York. I would also recommend that you go here before visiting Ground Zero. |

| We are a family of six ranging from me at 57 to my wife, 47, three girls 15-19 and a 13 year old boy. All of us found the experience very special indeed. I well remember that terrible day in September 2001, when I was in Hong Kong and stayed up for most of the night. This was harrowing enough but I had no idea how terrible the aftermath proved to be, nor that more than 10% of casualties were members of the NYFD.
We will remember this unique and insightful experience for a long time. |

| The Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour was one of the highlights of our visit to NYC. Seeing those photos really impressed the whole family, hearing the stories behind them even more so. |
