    Our tour guide, gave us time to take pictures and gave us thorough history about the bridge. She even gave us recommendations on where to have lunch! She was perfect.

    Great tour. We were able to go at our own pace and our guide - Katherine - was very engaging and knowledgeable. Learned a lot and had a good time.

    You will have the chance to see Notorious Big Tribute Statue / Biggie Small's Brooklyn statue in addition of visiting the Brooklyn Bridge and Dumbo district with an acknowledged guide who is also a history teacher for 19-years-old student; so this is a great opportunity to visit the one and first bridge ever built by a woman engineer at that time and to ask as many questions you want about the Bridge or NYC in general. The guide, who is also a native and a current resident of Brooklyn NY, will also tell you about Tammany Hall and the level of corruption that surrounds this era. The money turnover in Tammany Hall leader hands when building some building might be higher (19 millions of USD) than what Alaska cost to be purchased (USD 14 millions). Therefore, the money difference might have bring the downfall of Tammany Hall due to exceed of greed at that period. At the end of the tour, stay in Dumbo district to enjoy local best pizzas in all USA and local burgers and/ or Brooklyn vanilla ice cream. The food over there is delicious due to the highest quality of the water. Specially for pizza. Nice famous carrousel at the end. Souvenirs sold on the bridge at cheaper around Dumbo (end of the bridge) at 4 USD versus 5 USD at the entry of the Brooklyn bridge in Manhattan side. Highly recommended. A one of kind visit you won't regret as the guide is the best for this tour! Good for family! Prepare good shoes: sneakers, hat/ cap and bottle water. POC is 3 streets ahead of subway exit then turn right on 3rd Street. 6 min walk from subway to Guide's meeting point.

    Ludie was a fantastic guide on this walk across Brooklyn Bridge into DUMBO.Really interesting history of the bridge and the people involved in it’s construction. Learnt so much more about the area than we would have done just doing it ourselves. Got lots of information on DUMBO too

    Did the Brooklyn Bridge and DUMBO tour and loved it! Plenty of walking without a lot of shades, so bring your comfort shoes, water, and hat. Beautiful view on the Brooklyn bridge. Fun neighborhood and a riverside carousel too :)

    Charles, our guide, offered just enough information for this walk — which offered spectacular views of Manhattan. He highlighted the construction of the bridge and changes to the Dumbo neighborhood over the years. Also helpful were his eatery suggestions. Well done overall and highly recommended if you’re interested in walking the bridge but learning a bit of history vs just putting one foot in front of the other.

    This is a really enjoyable and educational walk across the Brooklyn Bridge to the up-&- coming neighbourhood of Dumbo. Tour guide Kevin has a good sense of humour too, which added to the fun quotient. He was also good at pacing the walk, and patient with waiting for all to catch up before sharing information. Kevin's also good for outside-of-the-tour pro tips - just ask him! :)

    AMAZING! The views were beautiful. Our guide Shaun was very friendly and very knowledgable about the bridge and all of the NYC. He accommodated to all walkers slow and fast, he took great pictures and overall very helpful!! I loved the tour I would go again

    The tour lasted 1/2 hour less than we expected. The guide leaves you behind in a different place than you started, which is good to know on forehand. It takes you some time to get back to the starting point.
