| An interesting and very worthwhile tour but very hard to describe in words - you have to see it yourself in person. |

| This Tour was booked by accident as a result of a miscommunication between our group of friends. Having said that we were all glad that we had made that mistake as we found the experience extremely worth while. The information available was from first hand experience of being at Ground Zero and this was presented in such a clever, well thought out way. We all said that we would recommend this to anyone we know who is planning to visit New York as it gave a different perspective than just going to the World Financial Centre and overlooking the Ground Zero Site. |

| An excellent presentation by both our guide and the headphone commentary. Very moving and real insight into the bravery and tenacity of the men and women who excavated the site. |

| The Ground Zero Museum Workshop brings reality, sadness and comfort together to remind us all to "Never Forget". Mr. Suson's photgraphs are remarkable and the artifacts and untold stories are breathtaking. There are no graphic displays of the horrors that took place during and after 9/11. The Museum is a place where you can go to honor and to respect the thousands of lives that were lost. It is suitable for children as they can learn about about a tragic event that changed the world they live in without bringing fear to their hearts. The fact that you can actually hold some of the artifacts is such a concrete way to bring reality to those of us that weren't there. There is one piece in particular, not to touch, not to photograph. It is the only remains that one gentleman has of his daughter and what Mr. Suson did for him is the most poiniant, heart touching act of kindness one can imagine. You absolutely must do the right thing and visit The Ground Museum Workshop. |

| I was surprised on how small the museum was and lack of professionalism of the setup. I felt like I was going into someone's apartment...not to sure about going in.
I did like the humbleness and the sincerety of the photography. The photos chosen to use were in good taste and mindful of the feelings and privacy of the families involved. |

| As a local NYer I surprisingly had not heard of this incredible museum. My family visited and were staying at a hotel near the museum and suggested we go. Of all of the tours and museums in the city, this is a must visit. 911 is an event that impacted the world and Gary Suson's photography is powerful and tastefully displayed. The museum is actually a small room which appropriately creates a sense of intimacy in a caring environment. The beginning of the visit to the museum is part talk/part video introduction and then you are set free on a self-guided tour which allows each visitor to have private moments with specific photos and items on display while listening to Gary describe in detail. The experience is moving and I couldn't recommend more highly. |

| the workshop gives you an indepth view of the recovery operation and certaintly tests your emotions. At some point we all shed a tear or two but came out saying in a strange sort of way it was the highlight of our visit to New York. A visit we will never forget and our gratitude goes to Gary Suson for creating this museum in such a sympathetic but interesting way. The visit had a positive effect on the whole family as it allows you to view items together or due to the personal headsets take time to be with your own thoughts.Its important we never forget. |
