What To Expect

Castle Clinton National Monument

For more than 200 years, The Battery has been an invaluable part of New York City’s history. Decades before Ellis Island was built or the Statue of Liberty gazed down at incoming boats, millions of newcomers arrived at The Battery from Europe and elsewhere.

Statue of Liberty

[Pedestal visit is not included] Its most notable feature is the Statue of Liberty, a large statue by Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi that was dedicated in 1886.

Ellis Island

Ellis Island was the busiest immigrant inspection and processing station in the United States. After welcoming more than 12 million immigrants to our shores, Ellis Island is now a poetic symbol of the American Dream.

This was a informative and fun tour. It is a must to do tour because Rory is very knowledgeable about the history and the significance of the Statue of Liberty and the Elis Island. She was patient and understanding throughout the tour and gave time for the group to take great photos. Lots of knowledge and new information was acquired in the tour. It’s broaden our knowledge and perspective about the significance of the iconic trade mark of New York City. Thank you so much Rory.

Ben was an excellent guide for our Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island Tour - he made it so interesting, lots of fun facts and information told in such a way that I know I will retain it. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this tour, and if we hadn’t been leaving that day, I’d have signed up for his Wall Street tour.
