From the moment we met our guide at the meeting point, it was clear that City Wonders takes great care in delivering a well-organized and informative tour. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, and New York City itself. They kept the group engaged with interesting facts and personal anecdotes that made the history come alive. Their passion for the subject really shone through

My partner and I were beyond disappointed with the "New York City: Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island Guided Tour." This so-called "guided" tour was a complete rip-off! There was less than 30 minutes of actual guided commentary. Instead, we were mostly left to fend for ourselves, taking a ferry to and between the islands with zero commentary. We were just dropped off at museums on each island with a few highlights mentioned before being abandoned. I did some research afterward and found that a guided audio tour, which includes transportation from and back to Manhattan, would have cost less than half the price of this scam. And guess what? The audio tour likely provides exponentially more commentary on the attractions we were supposed to see. I would strongly advise against wasting your money on this so-called tour. Save your hard-earned cash and go for the vastly cheaper and undoubtedly better audio tour instead.

Hi Brian_M, Thank you for reviewing the Statue of Liberty & Ellis Island Guided Tour with Ferry Transfers. We appreciate your feedback and are sorry to hear that the experience did not meet your expectations. We understand your concerns about the guided commentary, and we want to clarify that due to NYC Park services and regulations, guiding is not permitted in most areas of the islands. Our guides provide as much information as possible in the locations where they are allowed to guide, ensuring that guests receive valuable insights before exploring the museums and landmarks independently. This information is advertised prior to booking, as many travelers prefer the opportunity to learn from an expert and then explore at their own pace. We always strive to provide 5-star experiences, and we appreciate your candid feedback as it helps us continuously improve. We hope to have the opportunity to regain your trust in the future. Sincerely, The City Wonders Team
