Begin your day at The Battery – the historical gateway to Lady Liberty. Then, board the ferry and sail away from Manhattan to greet the Statue of Liberty.

Your guide will dive deep into the story of how Lady Liberty came to be. As you tour the island, your guide – an expert in setting the stage, creating the scene, and invoking your imagination – will share the incredible historical facts that fuel your understanding of just how important this monument truly is.

Take in beautiful views of the famed New York skyline, the Brooklyn Bridge, and the surrounding environs. Wander through the Statue of Liberty Museum and stand mere feet from Lady Liberty’s original torch!

After the Statue of Liberty, board the short ferry to Ellis Island – another mammoth site in the history of the United States. Your guide sets the tone with a brief introduction and provides recommendations on how to get the most from your visit.

Explore this special place at your own pace, enjoy the official audio guide, search the passenger records for family names, or pause for a quick bite to eat at the popular cafeteria, but you are free to return with your guide if you wish.
