This tour was extremely informative and NOT boring. The tour guide is very well-prepared and has devoted extensive research to provide a view of New York history that is not common knowledge, mixing a walking and bus tour with observations about New York architecture and African-American history. Most interesting were the facts pertaining to Wall Street and African-Americans. The tour... More

Well worth the experience. You learn a lot more about Brooklyn bridge and Brooklyn area than walking around yourself. Very friendly guide. Good photo opportunity of the Manhatten skyline and Brooklyn bridge itself at the end of the tour. You do need to be ready to walk somewhat briskly though. More

Informative and exciting tour from the establishment of New York to today. A lot of background information and history - very remarkable and not quite the typical "stupid" tourist city tour. Our guide was very friendly, answered all of our questions - off-topic, too :) - and had a tremendous knowledge about the city/topic. Also offered to walk instead of... More

I couldn't have fun with this tour because the guide walks too fast, I couldn't even enjoy of Brooklyn Bridge, and later she stops for 10 minutes in a chocolate shop in Dumbo, it had no sense. The places are great, and the guide knows lots of things about history of Manhattan and Brooklyn, but it seemed every minute that... More

This was a really interesting tour, you walk over the Brooklyn bridge from manhatten into DUMBO, a funky community in Brooklyn. Some tasty food stops along the way. We did this apart of an NY pass that we bought, so it was good value for us. I believe the stand alone price is about $35US and I dont know if... More

Stacy, the tour-guide is friendly, highly knowledgeable and very keen to answer questions. The places visited may not be the ones usually visited by tourists but shouldn't be missed. This is a great tour and a great learning experience. Highly recommend it! More

I have lived in Brooklyn all my life, yet have never really had the opportunity to really experience the Brooklyn that many know. Imagine me visiting art galleries, exploring a park that was site of a battle in the Revolutionary War , eating Asian delights in Brooklyn's own Chinatown. I never knew many of these places existed until the tour.... More

The guide was lots of fun & very knowledgeable. As a Brooklyn native, it was a great experience to see and learn things about my hometown that I wasn't exposed to. I can't wait to go back for my next thematic tour experience! More
