Q&A
A: There's no specific age limit for this tour, but kids will need to be able to walk and keep up with the group. It's designed for ages 6 and up since younger kids might get restless. If you're bringing little ones, be prepared for some walking on the islands.
A: Yes, the ferry ride is included in the tour! You'll take the ferry from Battery Park to both the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. The trip is pretty smooth, and you get great views of the harbor! Just make sure to get there early to find parking or use public transport.
A: Dress comfortably! There’s a good amount of walking, especially on Ellis Island. Sneakers are a good idea. Also, check the weather; it can get windy on the ferry and islands, so layers are recommended.

Thinking of gifting the Statue of Liberty tour—any thoughts?
I'm considering this semi-private tour for my parents when they visit NYC next month. They love history and I think retracing the steps of immigrants at Ellis Island will be so meaningful for them. I read that the tour lasts about 3 hours and is limited to 8 people, which sounds perfect to keep it personal. Anyone done this? What did you think?
Just booked the Statue of Liberty tour for my partner’s birthday!
Super excited! I hope it’s as good as people say. We’re going to try to do the evening ferry and catch the sunset. They say the view is stunning! Is it worth it? Anyone have tips for a special birthday surprise?
