Review of the $25 9/11 Memorial Museum ticket in New York, with practical advice on exhibits, timing, emotional impact, and value.

I love that the money goes towards the charity and would recommend this museum to anyone visiting.”

“It's 20 years since I last visited the Empire State Building (as a 30 year old working in New York) now I'm 52 and visited with my teenage sons and partner. It didn't disappoint. Staff were great, helpful and considerate, and the experience is much more immersive: animations showing the build in 1931, King Kong peering through the windows, spy holes looking down on New Yorkers back in the 30's – it really was great, a classic, a must see!”
