What's in Store
We give you the rare opportunity to discover one of New York’s most historic neighborhoods with a true local. Wander the picturesque cobblestone streets and gaze at the iconic 19th-century brownstone houses which so famously draw the crowds. Your guide will point out familiar locations from films such as Moonstruck and fill you in on the famous faces that can be spotted on Brooklyn’s streets, past and present.
In such a historic neighborhood, learning about the culture is essential. Your Brooklyn resident guide will enlighten you about the changes in the culture and community dating back to the 1700s. Walk along the famous Brooklyn Promenade where the views of the NYC skyline will provide you with the perfect photo opportunities. Next, we will go on to explore the hip area DUMBO (down under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass), acclaimed not just for its incredible views of the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges but also its impressive regeneration story.
If you are a history, architecture, or culture lover, this is your ultimate Brooklyn walking tour.
