Overview

The Ground Zero Honour Tour provides a unique opportunity to confront
the history of September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on America, alongside Michael Burke, brother of FDNY Capt. Billy Burke, Jr. Visit with me
the iconic Koenig Sphere, a battered survivor of 9/11. Officially banned from the memorial as a testament to the attacks and a symbol of our resilience, I led the fight to restore it to Ground Zero. Visit the FDNY Memorial Wall, where I spoke at its dedication, and the St. Nicholas Shrine. Hear Capt. Burke's heroic storey and of the lives he saved. Gain first hand insights into the contentious memorial process. Perfect for those seeking a genuine understanding of the meaning, magnitude and impact of the attacks and the aftermath.

Guided tour led by Michael Burke, a 9/11 family member
Visit key sites including the Koenig Sphere and FDNY Memorial Wall
Hear personal stories of loss, bravery, and resilience
Ideal for those wanting to honour and appreciate the 9/11 tragedy

Activity itinerary

The Sphere

Visit the iconic Koenig Sphere, which stood in the WTC plaza for 30 years as a symbol of world peace and cooperation, and on 9/11 survived the attacks bashed and torn, but intact.

FDNY Memorial Wall

A gift of Knight and Holland, LLC, in honour of partner Gary Winuk, a volunteer firefighter from Jericho, NY. On 9/11 Winuk rushed to the site and was killed in the collapse of the towers. The wall commemorates the heroism and sacrifice of the FDNY, 9/11, listing the 343 who gave all by name, rank and company.

The National 9/11 Memorial & Museum

We visit the memorial, "Reflecting Absence," selected from over 5,000 entries, with its vast, every emptying voids.
