About This Tour
Experience the new WTC site with a native New Yorker using earpieces/audio which allows you to respectfully explore the Memorial while quietly hearing details. Allows space for family members to visit loved ones' names without the disturbance of a tour guide barking over their serenity. This is a place for reverence, reflection and learning - not entertainment. This tour offers something truly rare—authenticity. As a New Yorker personally impacted by that tragic day, I don’t rely on sensationalized stories. Instead, I offer a respectful, deeply personal, and truthful account of what happened, how the city responded, and what it means today. If you want a meaningful, honest experience that honors the truth and the resilience of New York, this is the tour for you. Groups are also capped at 12 for the comfort of tour guests as well as family and friends who may be at the Memorial. Tour is ENGLISH ONLY
