| 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. |

| We had a special treat with Gary the photographer there to introduce the exhibits and to answer questions. That made the connection with 9/11 real and personal.
The photographs were each supported by the audio story for each one and made the photographs much more understandable with meaning.
The exhibits of artifacts were heart rending since they showed the battering that even those things that survived took. I was amazed that some things survived from Windows on the World, the restaurant where I had eaten several times.
Seeing a piece of the American Airlines #11 airliner brought the horror home as did pieces of the World Trade Center glass that somehow survived.
The only thing that surprised me was how small the room was, perhaps 25-30 feet square. Even then, it was not crowded since only a limited number are accepted for each two hour slot. And there was enough there that we easily spent the whole two hours engrossed in the material.
It will help us "never forget!"

| This small museum exhibit was well worth seeing. If you would like to see the Ground Zero Photographer's original photos and his audio editorial of his experience you will not be disappointed. It is a respectful museum and very interesting. After the audio and visual exhibit, take the E train at 8th Ave to World Trade Center and walk around. If you want a great view of Ground Zero, check into the Millenium Hilton. Fantastic view. |

| I loved it. My girlfriend and I enjoyed it very much. The pictures with the audio was so incredible and fascinating to learn more from 9.11. The movie at the beginning made me cry. and the story that touched my heart was the one of the little angels singing the Christmas carols. That was just so amazing that they came all the way from Texas just to sing for those guys. I loved every minute of it and had plenty of time to listen to all the pictures that I wanted to. It was worth the money. Thanks so much!!!! |

| Intimate and touching, the Ground Zero Museum Workshop is one museum that you will remember for the rest of your life. I learned new information about that tragic day in September. Viewing rare artifacts from the site, my family and I felt that this museum brought us a peace and closure. This museum really helps you get a better feel for those closest to the tragedy. Do not miss the Ground Zero Museum Workshop. I will NEVER FORGET September 11th, 2001. Thank you and God Bless. |

| Highly recommended, the tour guides were fantastic, they explained everything in great detail not just about that tragic day but about Gary Suson himself. This was made easy as they keep groups attending to a minimun and don`t cram big groups into the room.
My family left the museum feeling very emotional but i`m pleased we attended this event and l had the opportunity to learn about things we had not heard on the TV.

| This tour was a really sad experience. We had to wait 6 years before we made our journey to New York but it was worth it to be able to see the photography of Gary. The tour length was just right, we had a 10 year old and he spent the time engrossed in the stories regarding Ground Zero. The format allowed us to view at our pace. Thankyou |
