Best way to see Lady Liberty - Very informative and worth the trip. Being that close to Lady Liberty is surreal! Jerry gave us a lot of fantastic information and finished it off with his own family connection to Ellis Island!
Extra note: if you want to get into the crown or base of the Staute of Liberty you MUST DO THIS MONTHS IN ADVANCE!

Definitely a must do! - Sara was an amazing guide. Her stories were informative and educational. She made the day so much better than just a run of the mill tour. Highly recommend anyone that has not been to the statue to go. Seeing it from afar is great but up close is spectacular!

Mindy was super friendly, but scattered. Several older folks in our group and it was hard to keep up. Great knowledge - Again, scattered but friendly and knowledgeable. Meeting place was easy to find. Maybe listing closest subway stop would be helpful in our information email. It was a great way to see both historical places.
