Experience Highlights

Ready for a historic adventure? Explore Liberty Island and take a ferry ride to the mighty Statue of Liberty from Battery Park. This experience allows you to cruise down the Hudson River by ferry and gaze at the New York skyline, take a leisurely stroll once you reach the island and admire this iconic landmark up close. You can also visit the Museum dedicated to this great symbol of freedom.

But that's not all. You'll also visit Ellis Island, home to the interesting National Museum of Immigration, a fascinating place to learn about the country's multicultural roots. Can you imagine the stories hidden there?

We tell you more about what's included in this 4-hour tour:

  • Ferry ride: Cruise down the Hudson River and enjoy spectacular views of Manhattan. Get your camera ready for those pictures everyone will want to see!
  • Statue of Liberty Museum: Admission included to the museum, opened in 2019. Find out all about this gift from France to the United States.
  • National Immigration Museum at Ellis Island: Admission also included in this tour where you will learn about the history of immigrants seeking a new life in the USA.
  • Professional guide: A bilingual guide in English and Spanish will accompany you for much of the tour, sharing fascinating stories and anecdotes about these iconic sites (only if you choose the guided option).
  • Interactive audio guide: If you prefer, you can choose the basic option when booking and do the tour on your own with the help of an audio guide. Manage your time your way!

Step by Step

Imagine starting your day with a ferry ride on the Hudson River, feeling the breeze on your face and seeing those monuments you've always seen in the movies approaching. Get ready, your ferry to freedom is waiting for you in Battery Park! Oh, and charge the battery of your mobile phone or camera because during the 4 hours that the visit lasts you won't be able to stop immortalising every moment.

When you arrive at Liberty Island, you'll come face to face with the majestic Statue of Liberty. Did you know that it was a gift from France in 1886? You will discover this and other curious details at the Statue of Liberty Museum. Although this tour does not include access to the interior of the Statue of Liberty, we assure you that the experience will be complete and enriching.

Next, we head to Ellis Island, the place that was the gateway for millions of immigrants. Here, the National Immigration Museum awaits you with its moving exhibits. As you walk the same corridors as those seeking a new beginning, you'll feel a bit of their hope and determination.

There are several options to choose from when booking your tour:

  • Basic option: Tour with audio guide only (no guide). Explore each island and its museums at your own pace with an interactive audio guide; just validate your ferry ticket and do the rest of the journey on your own.
  • Classic option: Tour with bilingual guide (English and Spanish). Please note that there will be places such as inside the museums and other areas where, due to site regulations, the guide will not be able to enter.
  • Premium option: Tour with bilingual guide (English and Spanish) + Audioguide for the places where the guide cannot access, so you won't miss anything of the visit.

Any of the alternatives will offer you a complete and fascinating perspective of one of the most emblematic places on the planet and the legendary environment that surrounds it.

So what do you say? Will you join us on this historical and cultural adventure? Lady Liberty awaits you!

    The service on the cruise was A1. The price was also very much in line with what we paid. As we say in my country, it has the 3 Bs: good, nice and cheap!
