Description

Discover New York's iconic landmarks on a guided tour!

You'll meet your guide in Battery Park, at the foot of One Battery Park Plaza, to begin this excursion into American history. You'll begin by boarding the ferry to Liberty Island, with time-saving priority access. From the boat, you'll enjoy a breathtaking view of the Manhattan skyline.

Arrived at Liberty Island, you'll learn more about the history of the Statue of Liberty, a masterpiece imagined by Gustave Eiffel. You'll explore the museum dedicated to the statue and have free time to take photos or admire the panoramas.

You'll then take the ferry to Ellis Island. There, your guide will explain the journey of the millions of immigrants who arrived in the United States between 1892 and 1954. Inside the Immigreation Museum you will hear poignant tales from those who sought a new life in America.

Returning to Manhattan, the tour will continue to the financial district of Wall Street, past the New York Stock Exchange and Federal Hall. You'll then make your way to Ground Zero and the pools of the 9/11 Memorial, places of meditation in tribute to the victims of the 2001 attacks.

By choosing the option with the ticket to the 9/11 Museum, you'll be able to end your visit by exploring its exhibits rich in historical testimonies and objects.
