The Statue of Liberty Museum is very interesting. At the Immigration Museum on Ellis Island, we were put in the shoes of someone arriving for a new life in the United States. The audioguide is well done, but we got a bit confused at the end of the first wing when trying to find what to do next. There were other possible routes through the museum.

Worth it for the price and no hassle when I booked.I was scammed outside the ferry and I remembered I use your service before in Paris and didn't expect you have US.I wished I researched and booked sooner .
