Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for kids on this tour? Thinking of taking my 6-year-old.

A: There's no specific age limit for this tour, but keep in mind that younger kids might get restless during the 30-minute orientation. The ferry ride is pretty smooth, so it should be fun for your 6-year-old! Just make sure they're able to handle the headphones for the audio tour. Overall, many families bring kids of all ages and have a great time.

Q: What should I wear? I'm going in November and I'm worried about the weather.

A: Definitely dress in layers! November can get chilly, especially on the ferry, so a warm jacket is a must. I'd also recommend comfortable shoes since you’ll be doing a fair bit of walking around Liberty Island and Ellis Island. And don't forget to check the weather forecast to see if it might rain - just in case!

Q: Can we reschedule if something comes up? What’s the policy on that?

A: You can typically reschedule up to 24 hours before your tour without any fees. Just reach out to the provider directly, and they’ll help you find another time that works. If something happens last minute, though, it might be a bit trickier. It's always best to check their cancellation policy when you book!

Thinking of gifting the Statue of Liberty tour! Thoughts?

I’m planning to surprise my sister with the Statue of Liberty & Pre-Ferry Express Tour for her birthday. She’s always wanted to see Lady Liberty but never had the chance. I love that it includes priority boarding and the audio tour in different languages too. Has anyone done this? What was your experience like? I’m a bit nervous about the ferry ride but excited!

Just booked the Statue of Liberty tour! Any tips?

I just bought tickets for the Statue of Liberty tour for my family next month. We’re all super excited! I’ve heard the ferry can get crowded, but I’m hoping the express access will help. Anything else I should know before we go? Like how long do you think we’ll actually spend there?
