New York 9/11 Memorial and Ground Zero Tour with National 11S Museum Tickets

This 1.5 hour walking tour will take you through the highlights of the area. A guide with a personal connection to the attacks will give you the details and first-hand experience of that fateful morning.

The area of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 was practically razed to the ground and was given the name Ground Zero. Today it is almost completely renovated and is the place of reference to honour the memory of the almost 3000 victims of the attacks. Want to know what you'll see along this tour? Make a note:

• The tour will start at St Paul's Chapel. This church, one block away from the epicentre of the attacks, served as a rescue site.
• You will also pass the 9/11 Memorial. Two reflecting pools represent the now defunct Twin Towers. The sound of the water will take you away from the hustle and bustle of the city and lead you to reflect.
• Ground Zero is constantly evolving and new buildings are added every year. The Oculus is one of the newest. The structure of the central station is not going unnoticed by anyone. Santiago Calatrava 's controversial design has been compared to a bird, an insect, the skeleton of a dinosaur or a monster.

It also includes skip-the-line entry to the 9/11 Memorial Museum, the perfect place to end this tour with the context and stories told by your guide still in mind. You can visit the galleries of this moving space at your own pace. Choose the day and time that best suits your trip and avoid waiting at the museum's ticket office.
