Battery Park, Statue of Liberty Museum and Grounds Guided Tour

Embark on an express tour of the Statue of Liberty, without the need to rise at dawn or queue for the first boat to Liberty Island. This relaxed journey offers you a small group experience with a knowledgeable guide, ensuring a seamless exploration of the Statue and her surroundings.

Upon arrival, your guide will acquaint you with the renowned lady herself, revealing intriguing facts about her history - including the surprising reasons why she almost wasn’t constructed at all! You'll also have the opportunity to delve into the Statue of Liberty Museum at your leisure. Here, you can uncover artefacts from the statue's construction that narrate the tale of one man’s monumental dream that united an entire city.
