Statue of Liberty

I booked the trip two weeks before our holiday, first time I used site,first visit to NYC very easy to use. Great information. Had to meet at 7.30 outside Empire State when all the others on our group arrived we made our way to the front and were first into building even though large ques had built up, very relaxed and very well organised, had plenty of time there to take in spectacular views,
Then boarded a bus to take us down to the water front for our trip to the air sea and space museum on the aircraft carrier intrepid, just wonderful ( I didn't think this would be my cup of tea as this wes something my husband wes very interested in however it was great,again no hastle no queuing straight in, fabulous trip loads to do and see and well worth a visit I could have stayed there a lot longer. Next stop water taxie to make our way to nine eleven memorial which we did on foot going through many places of interest our guide was just wonderful a larger than life character and from start to finish was helpful informative on the trip itinerary and just general tips to help you enjoy NYC we arrived at 9/11 memorial where we said goodby to our fabulous guide, memorial was weary moving and my husband and I spent a couple of hours paying our respects there, the water taxi ticket that you will get you can use for the rest of that day, we then headed to do a little shopping at century 21 just five minutes away from 9/11 the hopped back on water taxie and went around the Hudson seeing all the sites Brooklyn bridge Statue of Liberty south sea port, so all in all a wonderful and most memerobal day, I would highly recommend this trip, and where ever I travel in the future I will always look up trips with this company. Hope this helps I 'm 49 and my husband is 59 so is suitable for all ages

Like most New Yorkers we tend to ignore the obvious when it comes to sight seeing in our own town!
Last year we took the Circle Line around the island and learned an amazing amount about our home!
We pledged to go to Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty next.
We did get to go see them both from the cruise boat (both still closed) and had a great time.
Once again learning more about our own turf.
Thank you - the weather was great too!

Well, I'd waited a long time to do this trip and if I could give 6 stars I would! This was a well-organised, well worth it experience and money well spent. Liberty Helicopters were brilliant and the views above New York simply stunning. I wish I'd gone at night as well! We flew over every landmark (or around it) from Manhattan to New Jersey and around the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Awesome! If you can afford it - do it!

An excellent tour. Jim and Megan were very good guides. Jim is very professional and makes sure that everyone knows what is going on by giving very clear instructions. His humour is corny but adds enormously to the tour. His knowledge is excellent and he imparts the information very clearly. The early start gave a brilliant view over NY from the Empire State Building. The Intrepid and the submarine were both very interesting and things I would not have seen had I not done the tour. The bus ride was a little rushed but I saw all the major sights. The water taxi gave some very good views of, Manhattan, Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. Ground Zero was very emotional but the building work on adjacent sites spoilt the peace and quiet. Megan who was being introduced to the tour was very pleasant and helpful.

Enjoyed the tour-only issue was the transport across NY unavoidably hindered by a huge bike race.Both guides were great very knowledgable,friendly and helpful.Good to be on top of the Empire State before the rush,the Intrepid was great and could have spent a lot more time there,the 9/11 Memorial was very moving and the trip around the statue of Liberty topped off a great day.I recommend this trip.

Great tour! Tour guide Estha (?) was very knowledgeable about all the areas you visit. The Highlane walk was really nice and an area most tourists wouldn't normally see. The cruise was great - great views, and the boat stopped for a long time in front of the Statue of Liberty to allow for lots of photo taking. Dinner was nice and was a good opportunity to get to know some new people. The tour finished at Top of the Rock which was fantastic!! By finishing here, we could spend as little or as much time enjoying the view as we pleased.

The Zephyr was a really nice yacht and glided through the bay for a smooth trip. Good sights of the Statue of Liberty. Maximum capacity ~ 600 people, there were about 500 on our trip. I strongly recommend sitting on the outside perimeter, or else you will have a blocked view from the interior and it will be difficult to take pictures. The top deck is the best place to sit.

I was disappointed that we were not able to go up the statue of liberty but the cruise was a great option. I was able to get alot of wonderful pictures.

This trip is worth doing if you only want to see the Statue of Liberty and take a short cruise. The guide was very knowledgeable and we were able to get some great photos.

Very cool tour. Getting up the Empire State early and before the crowds is the big bonus here. We used the ferry ticket at the end of the tour to visit Brooklyn and then later, the Statue of Liberty before returning to pier 84. Tour guide was great too - very knowledgeable and helpful.

If you are looking to do a New York City tour and see A LOT in a short time, this tour is a VERY good value! Our local tour guide was Jim, a life-long New Yorker who was extremely knowledgeable and fun. I would highly suggest this tour for anyone who wants to go to the top of the Empire State Builiding, see the USS Intrepid and Space Shuttle Enterprise, have a NY Water Taxi tour of the Hudson and Statue of Liberty, get a walking tour of lower Manhattan and Battery Park, and finish with time at the 9/11 Memorial. Give yourself 6-7 hours and bring your walking shoes!

Highly recommend this tour. Our tour guide was fantastic, knowledgeable, funny, friendly, and polite. This was my first time to NYC and this tour was a great way to see and learn about New York. The 9-11 Memorial was a place for all to see and the water taxi was fun and took us up to the Statue of Liberty to view. The walking part of the tour of Wall Street and area near the memorial was well worth the time.
Learned so much. Loved the trip. Thank you.

This was the best hour spent in NYC. To see the bridges, Freedom Tower, Empire State Building, Ellis Island and Statue of Liberty was amazing. Next stop was Top of the Rock, also booked through Viator. Highly recommend Viator for booking tours.
