Statue of Liberty in New York City

The Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island are the heart of New York Harbor. Ferry tickets reach Liberty Island for close-up views of the statue, with optional pedestal or crown access booked well ahead, while Ellis Island tells the immigration story that shaped the city. Early ferries mean shorter security lines and cooler decks, and the round trip pairs naturally with Battery Park and the Financial District. Allow half a day to do both islands justice.
