horrible experience. the night was cold. i spent money on the tour, i spent money getting there, and when i got there, the tour wasn't going to take place, and i wasn't told. i wasted my time that night, when i could have planned something else to do. i was reimbursed for the tour, but i was not reimbursed for the transportation i spent for nothing, and even worse, i was not reimbursed for the extreme frustration and waste of time i had that night. i have not been given an objective and direct answer as to whether or not i will be reimbursed and financially compensated for all the inconvenience. i could have organized something different, but all i had to do was go back to the hotel and sleep.

I didn't like it, I bought a ticket and unfortunately I ended up putting the wrong date, and at the same moment that I saw it I asked for support which was denied informing me that it was no longer possible to change the date or cancel. Unfortunately I am still in Brazil and will only be in NY on Tuesday 07/01 and so I asked for a refund or change of date ...but it was denied, then I was told that only a refund would credit 25% of the amount, but I still haven't received this refund, and I had to buy another ticket again. I look forward to hearing from you

I highly recommend.The ferry ride allows you to see Manhattan from a new angle. Ellis island is a discovery and you can make your own genealogical certificate. The Statue of Liberty is mighty and beautiful, to be mmiraded and known. BANKSY is a true and sincere artist and has fought for the right of expression because art is of all and for.all. the.mueso is a stone's throw from Little Italy and China town
