Statue of Liberty | A beacon of freedom

The Statue of Liberty stands as a timeless symbol of freedom and opportunity, inviting visitors from around the world to witness its majestic beauty and embrace the spirit of hope it embodies. Stay on this page to find out everything you need to know about Statue of Liberty tickets, cruises, & tours.

Things to know before booking your tickets

  1. The only way to get to the Statue of Liberty is by ferry. Round-trip ferry rides to Liberty Island and Ellis Island are included in your tickets.
  2. Keep in mind that the ferry transfer is different from the cruise. The ferry is primarily designed to transport visitors to Liberty Island, where they can visit the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. The cruise will take you around the harbor near both islands but you will not be able to disembark at either of them.
  3. Before boarding the ferries, you must undergo a strict security screening, similar to airports. For a smooth visiting experience, travel light, and adhere to security guidelines. Large bags, weapons, and sharp objects are prohibited.
  4. Arrive early in the day and try to catch the first ferry as crowds tend to get larger later.
  5. Both Liberty Island and Ellis Island are entirely wheelchair accessible. However, access to the crown is not suitable for guests with mobility restrictions. Service animals are allowed inside.
  6. For families with young children, strollers can be taken on the ferry and the islands. Food can be carried inside soft-sided containers.
  7. If you're worried about leaving your pet alone all day, you might need to make other arrangements as there are no on-site kennels at the Statue of Liberty. However, pets are allowed on the sightseeing cruise.
  8. For the cruise, infants will not be provided with an extra seat and have to be seated on your laps.
  9. The guided tour gives you priority access to all attractions.
  10. The last ferry departs from the stations at 3:30pm and from Liberty and Ellis Islands at 4pm.
