This was a great tour. The food and the walk through Brooklyn Heights and DUMBO did not disappoint.

Extremely insightful tour with history, local tidbits and excellent tastings! The walk was wonderful and broken up so it didn't seem long or tiresome. Excellent way to see this part of the city and learn about small businesses, history and architecture along the way.

About Brooklyn
Brooklyn is New York City's most populous borough, a patchwork of brownstone streets, waterfront parks, boardwalk beaches and food markets.
Brooklyn lies across the East River from Manhattan, on the western tip of Long Island, and was a separate city until it joined New York in 1898. The Brooklyn Bridge, finished in 1883 with Gothic arches in its stone towers, has a walkway above the traffic with views of the skyline. Brownstone houses line the tree-shaded streets of Brooklyn Heights, whose promenade looks over the harbour to Lower Manhattan.
Top-ranked sights in Brooklyn: Dumbo, Williamsburg, Brooklyn Bridge Park.
