Overview

Hear the stories of immigrants who passed through Ellis Island and learn about the creation and symbolism of the Statue of Liberty. On this guided tour, your expert New Yorker will get your reserve-line ferry tickets and ride with you to Liberty Island and afterward, if you select our Comprehensive Tour, to Ellis Island for a tour of the landmarks around the island, such as the wall of honour. Once the tour ends, the exploration doesn't stop there as you can continue inside the Ellis Island National Museum of Immigration to explore its multiple floors at your own pace. An audio guide is 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. Our Liberty Express option offers a 2 hour guided tour across the water, and on Liberty Island, where you'll learn all about the Statue of Liberty and our expert guide will also give you facts and tips if you wanted to visit the museum on your own after the tour.

Mindy was an awesome tour guide. Her tour was very well put together and I learned a lot of cool information about the Statue of Liberty or should I say “liberty enlightening the world” as well as Ellis island. If you are planning on seeing the Statue of Liberty and Ellis island, I highly suggest going with Mindy!

James Hoffman was our tour guide, and he truly exceeded our expectations! His extensive knowledge of the area was evident as he shared intriguing stories and fascinating historical facts. Not only was he personable and engaging, but he also tailored the tour to our interests, making sure everyone felt included and valued. His enthusiasm for the subject matter was contagious, and it really enhanced our overall experience. We couldn't have asked for a better guide!
