9/11 Memorial Tour. An unforgettable experience, reliving once again the events of that fatal day in 2001. The Museum is partly a centre of information, a house of horrors and a place of remembrance. I came away from the tour and museum informed, fascinated and emotionally drained.

John Francis was amazing! We were a family of 4, Mum & three teenage girls (18, 16 & 15). JF was super engaging! We loved every minute! Time just flew by and we learned so much, so many loving details! Thanks so much! Would totally recommend! JF even took our photos ;-)

Highly recommend Sara & this tour!! Our guide Sara was FANTASTIC!! She was enthusiastic, so very KNOWLEDGEABLE , patient, passionate & kind. I love the human & positive elements that she brought to such emotional and difficult memories. She taught us so much about New York and New Yorkers & made us feel so welcome. She also arrived on time and was very professional. The memorial museum itself was also so well done. I’m thankful Sara gave some hints about how to manage emotions and gave extra personal insight into the exhibits within the museum. Highly recommend!!
