Step by Step

Liberty Island and Ellis Island are obligatory visits for tourists who are in the big city. The former because it is where the Statue of Liberty is located, and the latter to learn about the history of the millions of people who arrived in the 20th century seeking to live the American dream.

This tour offers different options, but all of them include tickets to the Statue of Liberty Museum and the Immigration Museum, in addition to the ferry rides. The Statue of Liberty Museum focuses on the creation, significance and history of the statue, while the Immigration Museum tells the story of thousands of immigrants who arrived in the 20th century hoping to live the American dream.

Specifically, the options offered on this tour are as follows:

  • The full option of approximately 4 hours includes a fully guided tour of Liberty Island and Ellis Island.
  • With the basic tour, with a guided tour of around 30 minutes through Battery Park, you will be given the essential information before boarding the ferry and access to audio guides while you are on the islands.

So, you can choose the option that best suits your time and interests without missing out on the must-see sights of New York City.

    Perfect tour for the whole family. My husband, our children and I had a wonderful day. In addition to learning much more about the history of immigrants, and appreciating the great Statue of Liberty in the process. Before we knew it the tour was over, it was a lot of fun.
