PRIVATE New York Ground Zero Always Remember Walking Tour

Overview

Available languages

English

1 hour 30 minutes

Mobile ticket

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.

I don't sell museum tickets for your flexibility. Instead, please purchase directly from the Museum where you can take advantage of certain family packages and discounts.

If you want a meaningful, honest experience that honors the truth and the resilience of New York, this is the tour for you.

Tour is ENGLISH ONLY

I really enjoyed the 9/11 tour with Dana. The tour was the perfect mix of storytelling, facts and personal experience. Seeing all the names of the people who were killed, including Dana's own brother, was very moving. I highly recommend this tour!

The Ground Zero tour and museum visit is a must for all who visit NYC! Dana was fantastic, very knowledgeable about the buildings and events of the fateful day. She brought a special poignance to our visit through sharing her personal and family story of 9/11. I would highly recommend her tour.

Dana was amazing!! It was great having someone who has a personal experience with 9/11. Dana also gave us such great detailed info that we didn’t know about 9/11 as well as the new One World building.
Dana is the one to be your guide for this experience

Dana is the guide you want for this experience—highly recommend! No one can bring alive the sites and moments surrounding the events of 9/11 like a native New Yorker with a very personal connection to this historic & tragic event in history. We’d go with Dana again!

Our tour with Dana was excellent she did a great job with explaining so many details about the events that happened on 911. Especially since it was so close to home with her brother being a victim of 911.
Amazing experience - highly recommend.

Dana's tour was amazing. Hearing her story added something unique to an experience that most of us could never imagine. I thank her for her time and I can say without a doubt her brother is, was, and always will be a hero.
