What to expect

Explore New York City’s rich immigrant history from past to present on a guided tour in lower Manhattan. Part of the reason that NYC is known for being one of the most diverse and colorful cities on the planet is the robust immigration communities throughout the city. Learn about the city's first immigrants at the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Then, discover the immigrant-inspired flavors located throughout the Financial District.

You’ll enjoy 3 different ferry rides through New York Harbor as you visit 2 of the most well-known immigration icons in the world: the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island (where you may be able to look up your own immigrant ancestors in their registry records!).

Then, follow your guide on a modern foodie adventure through the Financial District. Listen to stories of modern immigrants and taste the evolution of their dishes after arriving in the Big Apple. At the end of your tour, you’ll be full of inspiration and delicious treats!
