Traveler reviews
Great experience!
Wonderful way to see both Liberty Island and Ellis Island together. Mindy C was a great guide, very friendly and knowledgable. Note that the tour can run a bit over if you have plans later in the day. Very interesting to learn the history of both places.
Worth the time
Excellent tour with Christian. Lots of information about history of the statue and Ellis Island. Lots of walking but weather was beautiful.

Great guide made these places come alive
Great tour because of our guide Kevin. He put great context to both the statue of Liberty and Ellis island. His insights truly enhanced the physical experience of these 2 important places.
Marla rocks!
Marla was witty, knowledgeable and passionate. We saw all the necessary things, got real time city advice, and comedic relief on a hot and tired day. 10/10
