NYC Battery Park and Statue of Liberty NYC Walking Tour

Overview
See the Statue of Liberty from the best vantage point in New York City! While admiring the iconic statue, learn all about its creation, its symbolism, and how such an enormous sculpture made it all the way from France to the US!

Then, look across the sparkling waters to Ellis Island, and hear about the waves of European newcomers who came here “yearning to breathe free” and transformed the city forever.

Plus, Battery Park contains all sorts of hidden gems most visitors never find! What’s the story behind the grim sculpture of a drowning man half-hidden by the water? How about that unusual clock on the pier? Uncover the riveting history behind all this and more!

Castle Clinton National Monument
Built at the beginning of the 19th century, this castle-like fort was originally designed to fend off a British attack. It later became an immigration processing station and today is where you can buy tickets for the ferry to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. If you want to see those landmarks up close, this is the place to go.
