New York World Trade Center Walking Tour 2 hr

Walk through the World Trade Center area with a guide who survived September 11 and volunteered at Ground Zero in the weeks that followed. Their personal account brings the events of that day and its aftermath into focus, while the streets reveal layers of New York history stretching back centuries.

The 120-minute walk visits the Memorial Pools at the exact location of the Twin Towers, the Eleven Tears Memorial at American Express, a memorial to people who later died from 9/11-related illness, and a sculpture honoring survivors. Along the way, discover historic sites connected to colonial, Revolutionary War, and early American New York, including a church George Washington attended. Your guide also points out traces of damage from September 11 that remain in plain sight but are easy to miss.

Meet at the big red cube sculpture in the plaza. Museum entrance is not included. Join this New York World Trade Center walking tour for a deeply personal perspective on the memorials, history, and enduring marks of the area.
