Your tour begins in Lower Manhattan's Financial District: trickle down the world-famous Wall Street as you learn about the historical events that took place here in the early days of New Amsterdam (when the city was a Dutch colony). You'll then visit the 9/11 Memorial nearby, a site that commemorates the tragic terrorist attacks that took place in New York on September 11, 2001. Stand at the two gigantic reflecting pools and read the names of the victims etched around the pools.

Head to Manhattan's lower tip to catch the ferry to Liberty Island. Thanks to your ticket, you can bypass ticketing queues and walk right in. On your way to the Island, you'll listen to the history of Lady Liberty and admire striking views of the Manhattan skyline. Once at the island, plug in your audio guides, walk to the pedestal of the statue, and gaze out at lower Manhattan, Ellis Island, and Staten Island. You also have access to the Liberty Island Museum, where you'll learn about the universal symbol of liberty and democracy!
