Enjoyable tour - We very much enjoyed this tour with Liam whom not only gave us plentiful interesting info but also added his English touch to it. He's been very helpful especially that we faced an issue with our passes. I would only recommend him and this tour.

Very good experience - We did the tour with Kyle, we had a very good experience. He had very clear English, easy to understand. In addition to telling us the story of the statue of liberty and the island of immigrants, he gave us very interesting and detailed data, he also took pictures of us. The only thing to note is that this tour does not come with the ferry to the island, so you have to buy it separately.

Tour of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island - The tour was great. We got to see both Liberty Island and Ellis Island. Our tour guide Kyle was also very helpful and knowledgeable. We were running late and couldn’t meet with the tour group originally but Kyle was more than willing to guide us through with catching up with them on Liberty Island. Overall the tour was excellent and our guide was extremely sweet.

Touring with a local Guide, makes a more personal experience to remember. - We had a nice small group of 12 people in our tour. Having the knowledge and direction of the guide was really helpful. Hearing the information from her made it a much more personal experience to remember. We were traveling with two 13 year olds and they loved the interaction with our guide Lisa. She was a native New Yorker who brought her personality and information together to enhance our tour, this was an added way to know about New York city and the variety of people who call it home.
