Loved this, what a super friendly company of tour guides. We had Alvaro on our trip who was chatty, friendly and super personable. We felt like we were getting such a great experience (albeit our group was only 4!) but we still received a 5 star service and learnt some brilliant facts. Lightened with humour along the way and my favourite part - breaks in the tour to do your own thing and wander at your own pace. Even on a drizzly and windy day we had a great time, actually that turned out to be a plus as it was quiet!

I am a homeschooling Mom and took this amazing guided tour with my two girls, ages 12 and 10, and my 4 year old son. We all had a wonderful time! We learned so much from our enthusiastic, funny, and intelligent guide, Sara. She really brought to life the history behind how the Statue of Liberty was conceived and constructed, and what the Ellis Island experience was like for immigrants. I love that she brought in a personal touch as a native New Yorker and a woman whose family history included Ellis Island. I was debating whether to just book a Statue Pedestal trip on our own or spring for a guided tour. So glad I did! We got so much more out of the visit than if we had just looked at it on our own. She also took some great photos of us and knew the best spots for photos and for views from the ferry.

Knowable guide from France a little hrs to understand for older ears. Be advise you need to be in really good physical continue keep up fast paced but fun - we Should have been prepared for the New York down pour…froze as guide had us stand outside of the liberty museum- 3 older people need to sit - we did get to go inside and had time for a quick hot dog at the Liberty Cafe . We wanted to see Ellis Island and find our families names on the honor wall - we did get to do that. Our ages are 74 & 78 But we got awesome photos worth the money except standing in the rain and sitting out side Ellis Island for the story …hubby had to go inside - sorry we did not get to say goodbye- thank you but we are old and got so cold! We love La Vacanza Travel Tours
