A mythical bridge

Brooklyn Bridge to do on foot And if we have an eye we can see the statue of liberty in the distance. Also to do at night

Great Brooklyn bridge and dumbo tour

I took their Brooklyn bridge and dumbo tour (on a 90* day no less) and had a great time! My guide, Louis, was super knowledgeable and also made sure to keep us out of the sun whenever possible. Untapped tours are some of my faves in the city and this one lived up to expectations for sure!

Great tour!

Well organised tour, in a small group setting. We learnt a lot more about the bridge and the city than we would have on our own. Our guide Louis was very helpful and answered all our questions even after the tour had ended.

Brooklyn Bridge Tour

We had Louis as a tour leader had he was a wealth of information. He had some very interesting insights. Very willing to answer any questions we had. The tour was great and would highly recommend this. Be sure to walk back over the Brooklyn Bridge to Manhattan as you get the best view that way.

Come for the Brooklyn Bridge, stay for the history!

Our guide Justin gave us so many insider tips about the bridge, and its importance in the history and challenges of the development of NYC's and Brooklyn transportation systems. The pace was perfect and having a guide so knowledgeable, who knew how to engage his audience, made for a great adventure!
