Step by Step

Follow in the footsteps of millions of immigrants who came to the United States by seeing Lady Liberty for the first time. From Battery Park, you'll board a ferry that sails into New York Harbor, offering spectacular views of the Manhattan skyline and the statue itself, erected in 1886 as a symbol of freedom and solidarity.

When you disembark at Liberty Island, you'll have time to circle the Statue of Liberty, admire the broken chains at her feet and contemplate the inscription in her book:

"Give me your tired, your poor / Your huddled masses...".

With your audio guide, you will learn details about its construction, its historical significance and anecdotes such as the gift from France after the abolition of slavery in the United States.

Next, the ferry will take you to Ellis Island, the cradle of American immigration history. At the Immigration Museum, you'll tour the halls, see the records of millions of names and understand the selection process of those arriving in search of a new life.

Your ticket also includes an exclusive discounted Manhattan PDF, perfect for exploring the city after this historic experience. Remember to plan your time slot carefully, as schedules may vary and the availability of the last boat limits your visit.

Finally, you will return by ferry to Manhattan with the certainty of having experienced a day of reflection, learning and unique panoramas, all at your own pace and without logistical worries.

    You can see that the price is fair for what they offer: ferry, museums, audio and priority in security.

    The audio guides were well synchronised; without them I would have missed important details. Very pleased.

    A bit windy on the ferry, but great views. Arrive 10 min early is fine, as they say.
