Very beautiful, extensive museum of 9/11. Be prepared for a long visit, as the collection is very extensive. In addition, I would recommend to visit it very early, as it can become crowed when busses.... more

So tastefully done. The grounds and museum are gorgeous! Spotless clean with very friendly staff. Very peaceful and serene. On this Wednesday 3:30 the museum was extremely crowded. Some exhibits could just not be seen do to the crowds. Each and every exhibit had its own detailed description. The hall of pictures (victims) was overwhelming and very emotional but yet so beautifully done. Never Forget!

Highly recommend the guided tour, they have one for just the museum (60 minutes) or you can take one for both museum and memorial (90 minutes). Even after the guided tour was over there is a lot more to see. I'd give extra couple hours after the guided tour is over. The museum closes at 530 pm sharp. Advance reservations is highly recommended. We booked a week before our arrival, and a day before they were completely sold out.
