The guide was great and we made additional stops from just the museum and memorial. He was very knowledgeable, and showed pictures from 9/11 at certain spots that we stop at in the current day. Really helped visualize what happen and the recovery that is still going on. (On a personal note, it wasn't the best day for me, and I mentioned it to the guide; so he often took a few moments to check to make sure I was doing ok.) Highly recommend this tour, very much worth it.
