Having priority access made visiting the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island so much easier. We skipped the long lines and had more time to explore at our own pace, which really enhanced the experience.

The tour was well-organized and perfectly paced. We had enough time to take photos, absorb the history, and enjoy the stunning views of Manhattan and the harbor.
