Jim Q. 9/11 Tour Review - Such an amazing tour guide. It was great to hear the history of the event, and to have a real life story behind it. He also made it very interesting, and gave many facts about it.

Great guided tour - Jim Quinn did a great job of Manning you feel like you were actually present on 09/11/2001. Good descriptions and depiction of the different structures and his real live experience was great.... There was so much information I never would've known otherwise. I wouldn't have gotten this knowledge of not for the guided tour...Highly recommend

Tour that sensitively told the story of 9/11 - Jim Q was a great tour guide. He brought the story of September 11 to life with his knowledge and personal experience. We would definitely recommend the walking tour before a visit to the museum. A very poignant experience.
