An Amazing Journey with a Master Storyteller - Arun was an outstanding tour guide. He deftly intertwined stories with the memorial and really brought 9/11 to life for a bunch of high school seniors who didn’t experience it for themselves. Exceptional work!!!

Great tour guide - He is genuinely incredible at his job. Im an 18 year old senior in high school and he explained 9/11 in a way I’ve never heard it before. He had all of my attention the entire time and I could see his passion for his job. I dont think he could have done better I really appreciate him
