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, you will 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 little of their hope and determination.

You'll be able to exploreeach island and its museums at your own pace with an audio guide, just validate your ferry ticket and do the rest of the tour on your own.

    The group was a bit large, which made it difficult to hear at times.
