Itinerary

  • Castle Clinton National Monument

    For more than 200 years, The Battery has been an invaluable part of New York Cityā€™s history. Decades before Ellis Island was built or the Statue of Liberty gazed down at incoming boats, millions of newcomers arrived at The Battery from Europe and elsewhere.

    20 minutes

  • Statue of Liberty

    [Pedestal visit is not included] Its most notable feature is the Statue of Liberty, a large statue by FrƩdƩric Auguste Bartholdi that was dedicated in 1886.

Great tour, glad I chose it!

Published on Jan, 2025

The tour went very smoothly. Our guide, Joseph, was great! He shared a lot of interesting information in an engaging way; there was never a dull moment. He looked after us (a group of 20 or so) very well amidst the crowd - a good shepherd caring for his flock. It was a very good and satisfying experience!

Fantastic tour

Sergio was fantastic - he was clearly very passionate and knowledgeable about the Statue of Liberty. The trip to Liberty island and Ellis Island were a highlight of our trip.

Go go go Joseph!! Liberty and Ellis island super tour

Published on Oct, 2024

From the outset Joseph our guide was excellent. Great interactions with all parts of our multinational group. Engaging and able to bring the story of Liberty and Ellis islands to life!! Real great knowledge and able to take us back into the past to understand the context of what was happening when all this that we take for granted was built. Would go with him again in a heartbeat. He even got engagement from our teenage son!!
