Wow, what an experience we had in New York City for our overdue honeymoon. Our tourist guide alex was so informative. Me and my husband was so happy that we have a tour guide with us because if we don’t have, we could see structures, statues museums but we will not know information and story from the history. Thank you Viator we had great time in NYC! Now back to realty 🥰🥰🥰 till next trip 😘
Ps: so pitty i couldn’t share some pics what i took. I would love to share but it won’t let me. Some problem maybe in the website.
Excellent tour

We had a wonderful visit to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Even the ferry rides were a nice little adventure. Our guide, David was fantastic! Enthusiastic, knowledgeable, entertaining, and friendly, David provided the interesting history of how the Statue of Liberty was designed, how it came to NY, how it was installed, etc. He also explained what processes the immigrants were subjected to upon arrival at Ellis Island. Our son had to use a wheelchair during our trip after an injury. David ensured we were well accommodated as did the ferry personnel. We had a truly memorable and wonderful experience!

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
