Absolutely Wonderful!

  • 5 out of 5 stars by johnrainier from Malabon, National Capital Region, Philippines
  • August 24, 2025
Quote: One of the best attractions to see in the world. Definitely a must-see when you come to NY. Get a ticket on the packages some webstes are offering. It's cheaper.

A Must for Every Visitor

Quote: Cheapest way to see the statue is to get a regular ferry. You don't get to get off and explore the island but you still get close enough.
