Statue City Cruises Liberty State Park

This was a remarkable journey. The only suggestion I would offer for future trips is to thoroughly investigate the possibility of including a package tour to Ellis Island. Unfortunately, our schedule did not align, and we would have missed our return transportation. We had the foresight to book in advance, which allowed us to ascend to the crown of the Statue of Liberty. It was approximately 640 steps all together, and our entire family successfully made the climb, which was quite enjoyable. There was even a step counter on the wall, adding to the fun. Please note that only 500 individuals are permitted to climb each day.

Great Experience! Our trip with this cruise company to Liberty State Park was fantastic from start to finish. We took the ferry from the NJ side. Parking was easy, buying tickets on mobile was super smooth, and going through security was a breeze. We went during the week and experienced absolutely no wait time—both on the way there and coming back. The ferry itself was clean and comfortable. The first and second floors are fully heated, which was perfect, and the top deck offers amazing views. They have a snack bar on the ferry and they sell hot dogs, pretzels, cold and hot drinks. Also souvenirs! Overall, a seamless and enjoyable experience. Highly recommend! Picture of the actual ferry below.

Yes Yes Yes! This is definitely worth the time and money. Barely any wait time for the next cruise to go out. You can get off on Ellis Island and/or Liberty Island and catch another cruise back to the station. Quick trip with a great view. The ship has indoor and outdoor seating. Also a concession area with souvenirs

It's worth seeing with your own eyes. You get there by ferry from Battery Park or Liberty State Park. The ferry ride is easy and takes about 15–20 minutes, and it runs regularly. You go through a security check before boarding, so coming early really helps. The ride itself has great views of the skyline and the Statue of Liberty

This is a wonderful peaceful spot to see the Statue of Liberty. No congestion, quiet and beautiful grounds. Even though you see her from the back it’s still nice to see it. And it’s free! You can take boat cruise over to see her up close. We choose to enjoy the park instead. I think the park is very nice and everyone should try and stop by. It is a nice place to picnic too. There were plenty of picnic tables and I noticed grills there also. The bathroom was clean too.

We rode over on Statue City Cruises from the New Jersey side on a Sunday morning, and spent the whole day on Ellis Island and Liberty Island. All the exhibits in both places are super informative, and FULL of American History! Highly recommend giving yourself the whole day so you don't rush through ANYTHING, and pay the extra money to go up on the statue pedestal!

If was 8 years ago when I went here and took my kids to the liberty statue cruises, the boat offers a transportation to Ellis Island, Statue of Liberty and Bryant Park in New York, the price of the ticket almost doubled up from 8 years ago, my sister in law visited from Brazil and we took her in here to experience it, the process of buying tickets and taking the boat is easy there is signage everywhere to follow, the boat have so much space for sitting and a deck to enjoy the ride and scenery going to the island inside they have small cafe if you get hungry or thirsty, you can always bring your own snacks and drinks aboard, all the staff on this cruise is nice and they give you directions and your safety is their top priority, the ship is maintained and clean you will find so much trash can around. I think the price of it is reasonable for the places and time you can spend around the New Jersey as well as the New York side, the view on this port is amazing and there is so much photo opportunities on this experience, I highly recommend to try it for yourself.
