Even though a rainy and dreary day, it was so much fun with the group and our guide was an A+ teacher and the sweetest - Very educational and hassle free experience. We started on time and our guide was extremely experienced and knowledgeable and had a great story as an immigrant who came to America several years ago.

Great tour - Jay is a very good tour guide & had lots of info. I felt like my family were the only non-speaking Spanish people in our group, so I felt bad that Jay had to speak both English & Spanish throughout the tour

Crowded but worth it - Jay was our guide and made the experience very enjoyable. We went on a very hot day, try to avoid that if you can. Our tour was English and Spanish, hence the info given took 2x as long. Looking back i would have booked the smallest tour possible - less people to wait for to get through security before boat. Its a majestic site to see and Liberty Island was the cleanest place we saw while in nyc for a week, i kept thinking “i would love to spend the night here”, no homeless, no smell of feces- it was a lil slice of heaven. The museum was beautiful with a great movie about the history of lady liberty- definitely a highlight of our trip.

Experience could have been better - I booked a private tour back in May for my visit to NY. A few days before my trip I received a message that due to logistics my private tour could be refunded or changed to a group tour. Which as fine I opted for group tour. Then a few days before the tour my group tour would be cancelled and I was offered an audio tour. Which I took and received a partial refund for. The museum s were great but had we been able to go on the tour I originally booked we could have had a more knowledgeable experience. As expected these sites are very crowded and it’s difficult to stop and be able to take in the information. All in all the day was still enjoyable but I hope in the future for anyone booking with this tour operator they have a better backup plan for situations like mine.

Very disappointed with their communication skills and no refund due to their lack of communication - I traveled all the way from NC to go on this tour with my cousin. When we arrived we asked around about our tour guide because it was 9:35am and the trains were running late, but I would think there would have been a grace period due to it being NYC. I called the number and it kept giving me an answering machine so we left a couple of messages. We never heard back. Then I finally found another number which didn't work. I finally talked to a human and she tried to get in touch with our tour guide and they still never answered her back. She then told me she would email me back and I never received an email from her either. I finally found on the website where I can state my issue. I then received an email stating that my tour guide was at the meeting area until 9:47am which was a lie because I was there at 9:35am asking another tour guide if she was ours and she stated she wasn't with amigos tours. So they told me I will not receive a refund because their guide said he waited until 9:47am which if that was the case I wouldn't be writing this review. I am just disappointed with how this company does not communicate with one another. I honestly was excited to see my Yaya's name at Ellis Island and see the Statue of Liberty, but that did not happen and I don't know if I will be making it back to NY. But I hope others have a better experience than I did with this company.

Very disappointed :( - Problems with the guide, we apparently weren’t on his list (we bought tickets stating we were WHITH that guide) , he sent us to the checkpoint without taking any responsability saying he was « free lance » as an excuse, no help at all from him or the company and had some difficulties to get a refund… Very disappointed as we were looking foward to this visit :((
