It was my wife's 1st time visiting the Statue of Liberty and my 3rd. Hannah was our tour guide. I learned more about the history of the Statue of Liberty and Clinton Castle than all my previous visits combined. When we met Hannah to start the tour. She went over specifics of our tour. She told us where and when would be a good time and place to eat. She also let us know that we would get some time to explore by ourselves. We both enjoyed having her as a guide and will request her for other tours in the future.

Hannah was our guide and she did a great job. She was on-time, friendly and very knowledgeable. Since we were an elderly couple she allowed us to go at our own pace and gave a helping hand on the boat ramps, when we needed one.

Our guide was Patrick Kelly. He was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable. He went into great detail on the history and construction of the statue as well as how the immigration process developed and what it was like.

We really enjoyed this tour, Brad our tour guide was extremely informative and very knowledgeable. He took the time to answer our questions as we are from a different country, he also provided us with extra NYC history which really enriched our experience. We could tell that he is passionate about NYC and loves telling visitors all about it. We would recommend Brad and Top Dog tours every time.
