Queenstown Combos - Skydive + Shotover Jet + Shotover Rafting

Everyone remembers where they were on September 11, 2001. An event that shook the world, the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center changed the path of recent history in a way we still see every day. Visit Ground Zero to gain a deeper understanding of 9/11, the affect it had on the city (and the world!) and the long struggle undergone in New York City to move forward from that day.  With an expert local guide, you’ll explore not just the 9/11 Memorial & Museum, but the areas and landmarks around the World Trade Center that featured so poignantly in news reports after the attacks. Traveling in small groups, you’ll visit St. Paul’s Chapel, where friends and families gathered to hear news of their loved ones, and where handmade prayers and memorials still lie.  At Brookfield Place (previously known as the World Financial Center) you’ll learn about the economic effects of the attack and the struggle to rebuild afterwards. You’ll visit the Eleven Tears Memorial, a touching and personal memorial, which commemorates the 11 American Express employees that died in 9/11. The Winter Garden is another must-see on Vesey Street. You may have missed it on your own, but with a local guide leading the way, you won’t miss a beat.  After that we’ll head for Ground Zero, to see the stunning 9/11 Memorial Pools, each one built in the footprint of one of the twin towers, and inscribed with the names of all those who perished in the attack. Your guide will take this time to give you a more personal account of the tragedy that unfolded here, taking you to the Fireman’s Memorial and the Survivor Tree to tell you the incredible stories of courage and loss that unfolded right where you stand.  The last stop on our tour is one we’ll let you manage on your own. The 9/11 Museum is a very well curated space, with artifacts salvaged from the event on display, alongside countless personal stories. It’s a very moving visit, best taken in at your own pace in silence. We still have one last perk though – we’ve pre-reserved your museum tickets, so you’ll skip long lines to gain immediate access. We’ve kept our groups small for this tour to ensure a level of intimacy and peace that’s fitting for such a visit, and have chosen only the best local guides to give your tour a more personal feel, giving the 9/11 Memorial and its surrounds a more human context.  PLEASE NOTE:  From March 1, 2018, we are no longer including the following sites on our walking tour due to a slight itinerary change.   American Express Eleven Tears Winter Gardens Brookfield Place Inclusions: Expert local tour guide 5pm Reserved timed-entry 9/11 Museum tickets (self-guided)  Small groups of 20 people or fewer Exclusions: Gratuities Hotel pick-up/drop-off Food/Beverages Sites Visited: St Paul's Chapel  Brookfield Place (formerly known as World Financial Center) American Express Eleven Tears Memorial  Winter Garden 9/11 Memorial Museum (Museum is non-guided) 9/11 Memorial Pools  Freedom Tower (from exterior)  Fireman's Memorial Survivor Tree   North Cove Marina PLEASE NOTE:  From March 1, 2018, we are no longer including the following sites on our walking tour due to a slight itinerary change.   American Express Eleven Tears Winter Gardens Brookfield Place Please note, this tour is in English only.
