Description

Learn about the creation and symbolism of the Statue of Liberty. Hear the stories of immigrants who passed through Ellis Island.

On this guided tour, your expert New Yorker will get your reserve-line ferry tickets for you and ride with you to Liberty Island and afterward, if you choose our 4 Hour tour, it's onward to Ellis Island for a tour of the landmarks around the island, such as the wall of honour. Once the tour concludes, you can continue inside the Ellis Island National Museum of Immigration to explore its multiple floors at your own pace and our guide will give you facts and tips to take with you. An audio guide is also included to help. You’ll also have time to visit the Statue of Liberty Museum as your guide prepares you for what you’ll see inside.

Looking for more tips about what to do with the rest of your time in NYC or want a photo to commemorate the moment? Ask your guide. They’re happy to help.

Both the 2-hour and 4-hour tour options include a guided experience of Liberty Island packed with historical facts about the statue. On the 4-hour tour, enjoy an additional guided orientation of Ellis Island.
