Very Emotional......

We did this tour 4 days before the 911 anniversary. It was very emotional to hear the story. Especially from the many people who actually lived it. Then to be standing so close to where it happened was scary. I took my family of teenagers who all said they learnt something new about the events of that day. Andrew our guide was great. He answered our questions and made stops for us to take pictures. You could tell he is very passionate about what he does. If you are in New York, I would recommend this tour. You will leave with a new perspective and a new respect for what happened that day.

Freedom Tower, 911 and tour of that area

Richard was great. He knew the history of the area, kept us entertained and kept it moving. We even met another tour and the guide there said Richard was the best in town. The tour itself was enlightening and informative. The Freedom tower tour hit as dust so you could see all the lights of the city. Very impressive

Thank you so much Andrew for one of the most inspiring tours we have ever done! Your ability to tell the story in a personal, sensitive and respectful manner deeply honored the memory of the many heroes who gave their lives that day. Your authentic family stories helped us to comprehend better the enormity and significance of what happened. Thank you for all your food recommendations and insights about NYC... we LOVED our visit to the Big Apple; we’ll be back again!!

Story of resilience

Our tour guide Andrew gave a us a walking tour of ground zero through the amazing story of FDNY Ladder Co. 6. Andrew was very personable and knowledgeable, he was able to convey a very tragic story with just the right amount of emotions while keeping it light. Highly recommend this tour and try to book it first thing in the morning on a Sunday like we did, when there's hardly anybody around. Our tour was combined with tickets to the One World Observatory, which we enjoyed very much.
