What makes Original Ground Zero Walking Tour in New York a unique experience ?
Experience an emotional 1-hour walking tour of the NYC 9/11 Ground Zero site. Pay tribute to the fallen heroes and gather near the different monuments. Your tour guide will help you to really understand what happened on that memorial day of the 9/11.
Brookfield Place is NYC’s best destination for shopping, dining, cultural events and art exhibits in downtown Manhattan. The guide will just show you the place from outside but you won’t go shopping. You can always come back at a latter time to shop by yourself.
The Oculus in NYC is an artistic landmark located within walking distance of the World Trade Center. The guide will show it to you but you won’t enter inside. You can always come back and visit it by yourself another time.
After the attacks of September 11, 2001, St. Paul’s Chapel, which sits directly across the street from the World Trade Center site, suffered no physical damage.
As recovery work started at the World Trade Center site, hundreds of rescue workers came to Lower Manhattan to search for survivors and begin sorting through the ruins. Slowly at first, rescue workers, police, and firefighters stopped by the chapel to rest and wash up.
