I learned not to ask a black girl for white coffee at Ellis Island cafe!
Crown access now open. 🗽👍🏻
@@redchedzmcc3848they re Open the crown now again?
"So Mr. Eiffel, what did you do with your life?" / "Oh, just helped design two of the most iconic landmarks in the world..."
hahaha yep
Show us the inside not your face.
Basically showed us nothing.
And he did Norwich fountain 😂
Think of that! The statue of liberty the Efell tower and Norwich's fountain !
I went up to the Crown during my first ever visit to NY in 1990. Back then there was no advance tickets or anything. It was simply a case of being on the first ferry in the morning and running as fast as possible to join the queue to get to the Crown. The intertwined spiral stairs and the views of the amazing engineering and then the views from the crown will live with me forever.
You're one of the best youtubers on the planet, I thoroughly enjoy each and everyone of your videos including this one sir!
Thanks !
My wife and I was just there last week. We got caught in the snow on the jersey side cause my torch lighter wasn’t allowed thru security. Well it was a hundred dollars lighter so I wouldn’t leave it behind. So we went the day after where the weather was clear again. I’m so proud to have been there. That was amazing. We came all the way from Denmark 🇩🇰
🎈🎈🌮
That's awesome! I hope you enjoyed your trip the US!
@@hinklefamily1831 thx it was so great and definitely not the last time ❤️
I went to the statue in the 80’s right after they did all the updates on it. Before the internet you had to just show up and hope to get inside.
Was the statue on Ellis Island or Liberty Island?
@@lucetteketley9114 the statue hasnt moved
When I was a kid, you could go up to the crown with no security, and a dime to pay for the elevator
Oh my goodness this was such a wonderful review.
Made me a little emotional knowing that my daughters father family name is in the books at Ellis Island.
I’ve been there one time and I’m a native Brooklynite, Thank you for taking us viewers with you and yours on this virtual tour 🙏🏽💖
I've only been to the Statute of Liberty once in like the 6th grade (waaaay before 9/11) and I realize that despite the security and tourist hassle, I need to go again! That cloudy image of the Statute of Liberty is so haunting....how many immigrants saw that exact same image on a cold snowy NYC day 100 years ago?? FASCINATING! Thanks for sharing!!
So this is how humans lived back in early 2020 . So cool .
8:41 Unforgettable scene:
- c'mon son what is your name?
- Tuo nome?
- Vito Andolini from Corleone
- Corleone, Vito Corleone
:) Yes
With A Slight Bias , I Encourage All To Visit Ellis Island ! Statue of 🗽 as well ! It's History. Good History.
Going to NY next week. Can’t wait!!
Closest I’ve ever gotten to the Statue of Liberty was from the Staten Island Ferry 😂
Yeah me too.
Everyone has to listen to the song “isle of hope, isle of tears” beautiful discription of what it must of been like for those emigrants ❤️ so brave , some so young.
Sooo good observation you made! Thanks for uploading and sharing and good luck with your RUclips channel
Wow, thank you heaps. I am watching this and just checked the mentioned website. I got 2 tickets of only 8 left for the day I wanted. So very grateful for the tip. This will be my 3rd trip to NYC and my first time visiting The Statue of Liberty. The first time she was closed for routine maintenance and cleaning and the 2nd time due to the 2012 cyclone season. Fingers crossed.
This is a classic NYC landmark in winter! I miss the statue of liberty and the winter cold a lot! I went to the statue of liberty in May of 1996 and went up to the pedestal with my cousin and brother and waited in that cold spring afternoon in that line for almost 40 minutes and took great pictures inside and outside the statue and of the NYC skyline and of the Twin towers of the World Trade Center. Then we went to the Ellis island museum and had lunch there! Great memories! Thanks for sharing this awesome video!
Ellis Island is one of my favorite places! I’ve been three times so far, and this past visit to nyc (about two weeks ago) my husband and I did the Hard Hat Tour. So worth the extra cost!
I had a dream where I visited New York and went up in the Statue of Liberty. I have never been to New York in my life and I watched this video to see how my dream compares to real life. As it turns out, my dream is much more tourist-ey than the actual thing.
I’m dying laughing at 2:58 😂😂
hahaha couldn't plan that if i tried
Very cool! I bet January is a much easier time to do the Crown and Ellis Island than in busy season.
I just booked my tickets to do the crown climb in February and I’m watching you so that I’m prepared!
It might be corny these days, but thinking of all the poor, tired, huddled masses, yearning to be free, who passed that lady with the torch and were filled with hope is very moving to me.
I went with my sister, mom and Aunt right before we went to England to see where my grandpa and his parents were from. It was really neat to do a backwards version of their journey. To stand where they were processed, to then go see the house my granddad was born in, the cotton factory where his mom worked. We went in April and it was still a bit snowy. I didn't know how far in advance you had to reserve for the crown, so we only got to go to the pedestal, but we thought it was great. Also, we never saw the elevator. ROFL.
I’ve just booked my ticket for June 2024, can’t wait to see it. I’ve also been up the Eifel tower. And I’ve seen the 2 statues of liberty in Paris. ❤
Hey Jon, great timing I'm going to the crown this summer (hopefully with a better view than what you guys got). This video just made me even more excited.
Thanks again Jon and Adriana ...excellent video with snow in the background. I vaguely remember visiting the Statue of Liberty over 50 years ago . Need to return and visit Ellis Island too! My father came from Chernigov, Ukraine on the SS Ryndam to Ellis Island about 1905 with his mother and brother..traveling with cattle steerage..lol Regardless, your video was touching and informative. Keep up the great work and touche' with Bleecker Street pizza..
Yes i will do the crown on my first visit ever to the usa in may this year. I got my ticket in december! Thanks for showing triptime of the boat and lockers.
please apply at www.bigapplegreeter.org for a gratis walk around town by volunteers...have a great stay in NYC.
Dag on that was an awesome video! Weeks before COVID too!! Thanks
This was beautifully done.......I don't remember if I visited the statue when I was in elementary school in NYC back in early 40's but I remember visiting Ellis Island. I have many memories of NYC when I was a kid. We now live in Miami since 1949 but I have been back to the city a few times since. Thankyou to you and your wife for this special video, muchisimas gracias. Walt in Miami
Just want to say I went to NYC for a week over christmas and it was amazing and we knew so many things to do thanks to your videos!
#TeamJon- My mom and my grandparents immigrated from Europe to NYC. ❤️🙏
That's awesome!
I went up to the top of the Statue with my mum a couple of years ago. It was well worth the climb.
As scary as it was, i concur !!
What a great video! Thank you so much!
OMG - the timing! We will be doing this tour in late Feb, thank you for all the tips (coming from Sydney). Already have our tickets and the early sessions (before midday) were all sold out.
My husband and I took our daughter and son (19, 22) to NYC in summer of 2019. We had reserved tickets to the crown months before and were so grateful we did. It was an incredible experience! Kind of emotional! We also loved our tour to Ellis Island, as my grandparents emigrated from Germany through Ellis Island in the early 1900's. It was wonderful to relive our experience through your video! Thank you so much! Very well done and you captured the experience perfectly! :)
We hope to see it when we visit NYC!
Reserve it !!
Loved this video. Wished it was longer🙂. Definitely gonna do this someday.
What a thrill, thanks guys!
tribute to the ocean linners
Great to see you visited Lady Liberty! I think in this video, your toured with our eyes, your followers/community. I appreciate how genuine you were. Good stuff! 👍 ❤️
Though my family and I didn’t immigrate to America. Seeing the registry room part of the video made me teary thinking of when I was only 12 and hearing for the first time “Welcome to Australia” when my parents, siblings and I first arrived in Australia. It’s a moment I will never forget, at that time I didn’t know much about Australia or even the city we were going to be living in. ❤️❤️
Very nice .. I hope some day I will be there to see this for myself ... Thank you for sharing this 😃
Always wanted to go to the crown. When it reopened after hurricane Sandy, my son encouraged us to do the trip. Tickets purchased 3 months out. Son, granddaughter and I did the climb- from pedestal base to the crown! Awesome! I found the manifest papers from the early 1900’s when my parents came to America. Mom was a baby, her papers are handwritten. Dad was 16, his are typed. They are a treasure!
I am very blessed to have worked at the Statue of Liberty during the summer of my junior year in high school with the National Park Service. I have been everywhere there is to go on Liberty Island. One of my job duties was to cut the grass using the various riding lawn mowers along with many other things. I have been in the basement & all over this magnificent hollow structure. I have also given the duty of going where very few visitors have been allowed to go & that is to climb the very narrow stairway way up to the Crown. Traveling up that one-way ladder was exciting and terrifying all into one. Once at the top of the stairway, I opened the door to the torch area to inspect the lights for the 4th of July holiday celebration. I had to inspect all of the lights & to notify the Park Ranger supervisor if there were any lights that would not come on. Once that duty was concluded, I returned down the stairway backwards on the one-way ladder. A feat that I will forever remember. Everyday was completely different working there meeting and talking to people from all over the world that come to visit the Statue of Liberty. Beautiful memories of a wonderful summer job including visiting Ellis Island before it was completely renovated.
The first thing that came to my mind seeing the Ellis Island room was Godfather movie too
That´s a great video.I´ve been there before and I do recommend it.
we went on Nov 30. We did what he did in the video so i feel proud. it was long in walking but we made it to the crown
Love your vids. Need a Here Be Barr for London too...
Great video in spite of the weather. I want to visit New York again.
I am sold. Going to NYC in October from Costa Rica as my son got invited to perform at Carnegie Hall (piano) so we are excited!!!! Will do this tour hopefully we will get crown tickets.
I just saw this video today and found it extremely interesting. I was born and raised in NYC and spent most of my life here yet never visited The Statue of Liberty or Ellis Island! Thanks so much for filming this. My grandparents all passed through Ellis Island so I found that especially interesting. Keep up the great work...best vloggers on RUclips!
Beautiful scenery with the snow and all... Can't wait to visit the Statue of Liberty with our family... Thank you.
Very cool experience for sure 🗽
Thanks Vegard
I plan to be in Manhattan for 4 nights in June and your videos have been really helpful. We already have our tickets to the statue and I'm also excited to see Ellis Island where my great grandfather came through. Thank you for all that you do.
I Love the statue of liberty ! ! ! ! !
It looks really cool in the snow - agree with Adriana!
Nice video! Thank you!
One of the best tour videos I ever saw. My parents are from Latvia. Me, my wife and kids are planning to visit NY next year. Will follow all of your hints, from this, and other videos as well. Thanks for sharing man.
Loved the video! You are definitely a trooper braving the weather.
Great video I always take the stars because one gets a feel of the place that you cannot get in a modern escalator and the snow magic 👍👍👍👍
Thanks Mick
Loved exploring Liberty Island over the weekend.
Thank you Jon, I think it's one of my favourite vidéo on your channel. I'm coming with my wife in september and I'm so excited to visit that ! and the music is so perfect for this vidéo
The Statue of liberty is the best
💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎
Wonderful video John. Looks a magical place. Great music which matches the atmosphere and videography ❤️📸
Amazing!
Great job!
THank you so much .. I always wanted to feel the statue of liberty ... you guys did amazing job.. Made my day
What an amazing video! Great stuff 🤘🏻
Watching this again seems very interesting I like it alot thanks again 😊
Coming to NYC for the first time next year. This will be my first port of call. Great video thanks for sharing
I will visit I never did before great job guys
Amazing 🤩 vist soon Insha Allah ❤️
This was a beautiful video. Thank you for the tour
The steps part reminds me of that day when my family went to the Empire State Building. We had the option to climb like 8 or so floors or wait 2-3 hours for the elevator.
Wonderful statues
Great tips, my first trip to NYC is in June and I just got one of the last 3 crown tickets for the whole week!
Good work Mr Barr!
Very cool video!
Awesome video
I have visited both several times and it’s one of my favorite places to go! Definitely have to get back to visit both, so Incredible!!
My sister gave me a trip to NYC for my birthday a couple of years ago, and part of it included a trip to the crown -- it was AWESOME!!! Like you, we walked up -- we're no wimpy elevator-takers! So cool to see it in winter. Great video!
This was great, thank you! Me and my 2nd grader enjoyed watching and learning and look forward to visiting one day!
wow!😍
Great video👍 I remember going to Ellis Island when I was in elementary school. my great grandmother came through Ellis Island from Italy 🇮🇹 so it holds some sentimental value to me
Wow i like your video so much
Thanks a lot sir
Jon, I love your videos. We just left NYC today and your videos made out trip so much more enjoyable and affordable. We were just at the statue a couple of days ago. It would’ve been nice to have met you and Adriana. Next time, though. Congrats on the wedding too. Wish both of you the best.
Thanks :)
I visited NY in October and also the Statue of Liberty.Next Time i will try to get tickets for the crown. Amazing Video Thank you👍🤗
I love new York city
Went a few years ago in the height of summer. Climbed the crown only for the rain to start: couldn’t see any of Manhattan. Would recommend doing the hard hat tour at Ellis Island - well worth the money.
I will definitely visit this asap. Thanks Adriana for the heads up. I'm claustrophobic lol, so now I know I need to mentally prepare myself before visiting.
I visited the state of liberty 🗽 love it 1096 steps your the great you
Cool experience!!! :D With the snow, it was magic!
;)
Reserved Crown tickets for April, hope to get a good day for it!
Thanks Jon 👍
Snow is fun too ;)
Awesome video!! Man
Wow
Our first visit to New York City last December. Didn’t do the crown but had tickets to the pedestal which was well worth it. I would suggest getting tickets to the pedestal at the very least even if you don’t do the crown. The views from there are worth it alone. If you don’t want to take the stairs you can do what we did and wait in line for the lift. Ellis Island definitely worth going to. As well as standing in the place where so many immigrants passed through, there is so much fascinating history displayed in text and photographs throughout the museum.
Just found your channel, and I’m loving your videos! My husband and I are taking our two sons to NYC in April, so your content is super helpful. We’re definitely planning to visit the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island!
great Video
