It was almost awesome, better directions could be included, Uber took us to the battery as advised but with construction the drop off was a bit of walk, one of the travelers cannot walk easily, we were well past the proper drop off. Include drop off near Bowling Green subway stop on the park side, it is an easier walk, follow the "blue sign" into the park. something like that. The cruise, your team and the sites were excellent.

Easy to book. A lot of people, but that's to be expected...the checks are quick and the shuttle service is well organised to connect the 2 islands. The 2 museums (Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island) are very well done. I particularly recommend the audio guide for the visit to Ellis Island. It's a must-see that we don't regret.

They accepted me to enter despite the agreed time (2 hours later), given the flight delay I had. What I did not like were the queues...everything is a queue, I think it could be more efficient, having technology at hand or the space for the queues at the boarding area could be roofed. After that, everything was as expected.
