About This Tour

Experience a profoundly moving journey through Ground Zero and the sites that tell the story of September 11, 2001. This comprehensive walking tour begins at One World Trade Center and takes you through the National September 11 Memorial, where twin reflecting pools occupy the footprints of the Twin Towers. You'll discover the remarkable Survivor Tree, explore the powerful 9/11 Museum, and visit St. Paul's Chapel, which miraculously survived and served as a relief center for nine months.
