I don't see any recent postings on the 9/11 Memorial and Museum (last back in 2014).
DW and I would like to go tomorrow.
There are general admission tickets available for the museum, and apparently entry to the Memorial is free and does not require a ticket.

Is that sufficient, or do I need the Memorial Tour? I ask, because the Memorial tours are sold out through mid-March, so clearly that's a popular option.

TIA.

Sorry to BUMP so soon, but we are planning to go today. Just landing in EWR now. Thank you! (And thanks, B6.)

Does he need to do the memorial tour also?
It's sold out

Or skip everything this time.

Do you need to go diving in addition to snorkeling when in Hawaii?

I did the museum only. Very moving and emotional.

The tour is a must. Would you go to KRK and not Auschwitz?

And if it's not available? Don't go at all?

Thanks.
The presence of machloket is sufficient to guide us to go to museum even if we can't do memorial tour this time.
Also, if I understand the website correctly, the memorial itself (without tour) is open and free admission. Museum requires a paid ticket.

Thanks again.

We did the museum on Sunday without the tour. We were both in the city when it happened and it was very emotional . You can spend as little as 1 hour or a whole day there. I don think the tour is a must.

Not sure what that means, though I have gotten suits in all price ranges and the the only place I consistently was satisfied with in regards to quality and price was Garage Clothing.

Ive been to the garage but ive always had hit or miss there. I have a meeting in the city so I figured I would check some places out when Im there.
