Step by Step
On this private tour of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, you will have the opportunity to explore two of New York's most iconic destinations. Your tour guide will accompany you for approximately 4 hours, and because it's a private experience, you'll be able to talk to your tour guide and personalise your experience.
Also included with the tour is a one-way ferry ride from New York to Ellis Island. Once there you will start your visit at the Statue of Liberty, one of the most recognisable symbols of New York and the United States in general. You will learn about its construction, its significance and its role as a symbol of freedom and hope for millions of immigrants who came to America in search of a better life.
After exploring the Statue of Liberty, you'll head to Ellis Island, where you'll learn about the history of immigration to America. You'll discover how millions of people came to Ellis Island in search of a new life and how they were processed and vetted before being admitted to the country.
You can explore the Ellis Island Immigration Museum on your own, which houses an extensive collection of artefacts and exhibits about the contribution to American society of the immigrants who arrived.
