Q&A
A: The tour typically lasts around 3-4 hours, but it can vary depending on the group size and any special events. You'll get to explore both Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty, and since it's guided, there's a lot of info packed in. Just remember to budget extra time for security checks, like at the airport!
A: No age limit! Kids are definitely welcome. Just keep in mind there might be some walking involved, so you may want to prepare them for that. Also, the security can be a bit of a wait, so bring snacks or something to keep them entertained!
A: Definitely wear comfortable shoes since there's a fair amount of walking, especially on the islands. Dress in layers too, as it can get windy around the Statue of Liberty. If you’re going in the summer, don’t forget sunscreen!
