A great day at the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island - Gail was great. My wife and I were with our 9 year old grandson, who is asking a lot of questions about everything. Gail was perfect with him. He got sworn in as a junior park ranger at the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, he was so excited and very diligent in filling out the questionnaires. Gail made the day very memorable. Thank you.

Poor service - Guide never showed up. Did not get to see the Statue of Liberty. Contacted guide stating we were at the meeting spot. No response. Ask for a refund and denied.

This is a great tour and... - This is a great tour and experience. Our tour guide LeAnn was great. She had a lot of energy and was very animated. She knew the history well and ensured all tour participants got a full experience.

Great and knowledgeable experience with the tour guide. - Missed our scheduled tour and good enough we were able to reschedule although we got charged with an extra fee. The company was responsive too.

Disappointment - You can only get off at the Statue of Liberty but cannot go inside her. Too expensive for just walking around outside looking at her

Rip off No tour - The “tour” costs double the price of just going on your own. The only value added is a very short introduction to the history of the statue. Do not bother

Worst - Bad experience and I also prefer to go Expedia and they care more about the family and children and we waste the time running here and there and no parking for my ram truck

No show - Check who you are booking with. Nobody turned up to meet us. We were then told there are only 2 legitimate meeting points for this experience and Starbucks isn't one of them
