Since 1886, the Statue of Liberty has welcomed millions to New York City and the United States. You will be able to get up close and personal with this international symbol and learn the history behind the statue and how it came to be on Liberty Island.
The tour includes priority, reserved access to the islands, a professional, licensed NYC tour guide (only for selected option) who will guide you through both islands and access to the Statue of Liberty Museum and the National Museum of Immigration on Ellis Island.
On Ellis Island you will learn about the journey of the millions of immigrants who passed through the island from 1892-1924, arriving in America, in search of a better life.
