| Well worth seeing, the hosts were most helpful, very interesting, this tour gave a more personal perspective on 9/11 rather than what the media protrayed. |

| I found the museum workshop via Zerve when I was booking our "Sex and the City" tour. It sounded interesting and it was inexpensive so I booked a reservation.
When you first walk in to the museum workshop, you will really find it small and wonder how it can do justice to the magnitude of September 11. When you leave, you won't feel that way anymore.
Touching pieces of the World Trade Center's glass and steel. Seeing a piece of flight 11's wreckage. And hearing first had from Gary Suson about what he went through. All of it was moving.
I already recommended it to a Native New Yorker while in line at a restaurant and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone who's going to by in NYC. |

| I highly recommend this tour. Words cannot convey the feelings I came away with after my visit to the Ground Zero Museum Workshop. You HAVE to see the photos and hear the dialogue from the photographer himself to appreciate what happened and is still happening to the families in the days & months after the tradgedy of 9-11. On the particular day I visited the small, but intimate museum, Gary Marlon Suson himself was there to guide us through. I found myself drawn to this man who has given us these magnificent photos and witnessed firsthand these tragic events. My heart goes out to Gary and all the families who continue to suffer. |

| I was very touched by the pictures and the stories they told. I was amazed that all of this history would have been tossed had it not been for Gary. The clock is one of the most moving things I have ever encountered. I'm glad you didn't show the towers going down or the people jumping. Very well done. I would hope some day the museum could be located closer to the site. |

| The Ground Zero museum experience was truly amazing. While the museum consists of one large apt. size room...my sister and I were there for almost 2 hours.
Gary Souson (founder and photographer) initiated the "tour" with some video...then pointed out particular photographs or items which had interesting stories/background.
Each item (photo or artifact) was numbered and you carried an easy to use audio device that gave you a story behind each item...so we were able to check out the items in any order desired.
I would highly recommend a visit to the Ground Zero Museum. You may want to followup with a visit to Ground Zero, particularly St. Paul's Church.

| My 9 year old son and I had the opportunity to visit Ground Zero Museum Workshop while touring New York City. We felt it was an honor to be in this room filled with artifacts and photo documentation of the aftermath of 9/11. I was overcome emotionally but felt an inner peace and a sense of hope. The exhibit made the tradgedy of 9/11 real for my son who was only 4 years old at the time. I know he will NEVER forget. Everyone needs to see this exhibit, especially families with school age children. Suson is a master of photography. Do not miss the opportunity to see his work. THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts. WE WILL NEVER FORGET THE TRADEGY OF 9/11.

| My boyfriend and i visited the museum on 2nd April 2007.
It was a very moving experience for us both.
The exhibits were very touching and very personal and laid out with dignity and sensitivity.
The photos on the walls were incredible and it was very interesting listening to the stories behind each one.
We would highly recommend a vist.
Thank you for making us feel welcome and at ease. |

| We were very fortunate to stumble across this tour by an internet search the day before we took it. Can't believe it's not a hugely attended tour due to the incredible contents! It's like the best kept secret in New York. It made our visit to Ground Zero SO much more meaningful and brought the whole event home to us who live on the West Coast.. We are very greatful that Gary Marlon Suson was chosen to be the official photographer because he did an amazing job not only photographing this incredible event in history, but the artful, heartfelt way in which he arranged the museum was great! Hope more and more people will have the opportuity to see this wonderful presentation. |
