Reviews
Booking through Klook was an incredibly seamless experience from start to finish. The instant confirmation provided peace of mind, and redeeming the voucher at the venue was as simple as showing a QR code on my phone, allowing me to bypass the long ticket lines entirely. Not only was the platform user-friendly, but the price was also more competitive than buying on-site. The instructions provided were clear and accurate, making the entire process stress-free and efficient. I would highly recommend using this service for anyone looking to save time and money on their next activity.
the tour is worth it. but, as the one who get here from a really far country, I got lost and not following the rest of the tour once I arrived at Liberty! The tour is about fact and history, so if you want to took bunch of photos at liberty while took the picture of manhattan from accross, you should get the package for the cruise to liberty and ellis island without the tour guide. but the tour guide is definitely worth it if you want to be guided and don't spend too much time in front of lady liberty (I spent too much time there, almost 5 hrs). btw the ferry is free entry once you depart, so, you can go back with or without the guide.
It was a pleasant experience despite raining althrought the day. The tour guide was excellent. Joseph went above and beyond guiding my family in English while has also have to cater to the Spanish group. He is very kind and accomodating.
The Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island tours were absolutely unforgettable! Amigo Tours made it extra special—I got closer to the statue than ever, visited the museum, and even had the chance to stand in the Freedom Screen. Ellis Island was just as amazing. A huge shoutout to our guide, Joseph! He was incredible—I learned so much from him. I even went inside Ellis Island to find an ATM so I could tip him because he truly deserved it, but unfortunately, he had already left. Highly recommend this tour and Joseph as a guide!
Package is easy to avail and is recommended for 1st time travelers to NYC. Meet up is at the Starbucks at One Battery Park Plaza (see photo below) and is easy to go to (it is near the subway station) Stalina our tour guide from Amigo tours is very knowledgeable on the history of the statue of liberty and Ellis island. She was able to properly guide us from the meeting place to the 2 islands in the tour. The tour was very good and highly recommended when you are in new york.
There was slight confusion at the meeting point as there was more than 1 guide. I purchased my voucher the night prior to the tour so my guide had to check back with her office to ensure I am part of it. Guide was friendly. On paper the tour lasts 4hours. But at the 2nd half at Ellis Island, you could stay there as long as you want since the return ferry do not care whether you are part of any tour or not, and there is no checking of ticket once you leave the main island.
Amigo, the local travel agency that partners with Klook, is the best I've ever used. They proactively communicated via WhatsApp and also followed up with multiple emails. Meeting point: Very easy to find. The tour guide arrived on time. Our guide, Emmanuel, was very professional in his explanations and took great care of the group members along the way. Boarding the boat involves theater-like security checks. There weren't many tourists this year, so we got through in about 20 minutes. Ellis Island is beautiful. The immigration history is very interesting. Liberty Island: To climb to the top of the Statue's head, you need to book at least a month in advance.
The Statue of Liberty, America's most famous landmark, is a must-see. It is a very worthwhile half-day activity. The guide gave good recommendations for the places. There were not many people. Overall, I was very impressed.
This was a great experience! I really enjoyed it. Having a guide made it easier and Joseph was very informative. I appreciated the English and Spanish explanations.
Visiting the Statue of Liberty is a quintessential New York experience, but doing it with a professional guide truly changes the perspective. We booked our tickets via Klook, and the tour was managed by Amigo Tours. Our guide, Sergio, was absolutely exceptional—his depth of knowledge and passion for the history of the monument made the entire visit so much more engaging. He shared insights that you simply wouldn't get from a standard audio tour, making the package feel like incredible value for the money. The logistics of the trip were handled seamlessly, from the meeting point to boarding the ferry. It’s a high-energy, iconic site, and having someone as professional as Sergio to navigate the crowds and provide context was a major advantage. If you are looking for a well-managed and educational way to see Lady Liberty, this tour is a fantastic choice. Sergio’s expertise is a huge credit to the company, and honestly, he deserves a raise for the level of service he provides.
