Punti salienti

Get the most from your time in the Big Apple on our full-day, Complete Lower Manhattan Tour, a combination of our 9/11 Tour and our Statue of Liberty & Ellis Island tour, with expert local guides  Discover the fascinating story behind the Statue of Liberty and take in beautiful views of New York Harbor.  Experience the story of 9/11 at ground level when you visit one of the most poignant museums in America. 

Duration: 9 hours

Our day starts early, at Battery Park. Be one of the first people aboard one of the first boats to Liberty Island.  Your guide will lead you on a tour of the island and on to the great lady of NYC – the Statue of Liberty. 

It’s back aboard the ferry then for the short ride to Ellis Island. Hear about the immigration process undergone by 12 million new arrivals. Walk the Stairs of Separation and get a feel for how it must have felt for lovers and families as they awaited their fate – and the start of a new life in the land of the free.

With  2-2.5 hours before the next leg of our Lower Manhattan journey, you have plenty of time to spare. Spend a little while more on Ellis Island if you like, before hopping on the ferry back to Battery Park and getting lunch on your way to the meeting point for our afternoon activity – a complete 9/11 tour.

We start at St. Peter’s Church followed by St. Paul’s Chapel, where people gathered after the attack to await news of their loved ones, to mourn, pray and offer support. The walls here are still covered in touching handmade memorials. Your guide will take you next to the official 9/11 Memorial and the two Memorial Pools, each one built in the footprint of one of the towers and inscribed with the names of victims.  Visit the Fireman’s Memorial and learn of the endless courage of those who worked around the clock for days to save the victims of the attack.and The Survivor Tree.

The last site on our tour, which uses your pre-reserved tickets, is the 9/11 Memorial Museum, wonderfully curated, with artifacts salvaged from the attack and harrowing personal stories.
