What to expect

Join the all-access tour, which will begin with a 90-minute walking tour covering St. Paul’s Chapel, the Firefighter’s Memorial Wall and the 9/11 Memorial. Your guide will lead you to the 9/11 Museum (accessible via optional upgrade) where you’ll be provided with timed entry tickets to minimize wait times and you can enjoy the visit at your leisure.

After the Museum visit, you’ll enter the Observatory (a two-minute walk away, accessible via optional upgrade). This panoramic observation deck is a marvel of engineering and architecture. The program begins in the lobby of the Freedom Tower with "Voices" - a film dedicated to the men and women of the Twin Towers and the new One World Trade Center. You’ll then take the "Sky Pod" elevator, which rises 1,250 ft (381 m) in the air in 60 seconds.

The Observation Deck begins on the 102nd floor with the See Forever Theater and moves down to the 100th floor, where the main observation deck is situated. Immersive LED displays, interactive touch screen video, and dining options mean there's plenty to do, but the true draw is the view that awaits: the impressive New York City skyline.
