Statue of Liberty Express Tour: Museum, Statue Grounds & Battery Park

This afternoon Statue of Liberty tour takes care of that for you with pre-reserved ferry tickets, so all you have to do is show up and get ready to meet Lady Liberty. And with an afternoon departure, you'll have plenty of time to hit up some other must-see NYC sights in the morning (or simply sleep in!). Just meet your guide, hop on a ferry, and get ready for an insightful visit to New York's most recognizable resident.
