About this Tour:

Beyond the Brooklyn Bridge’s stately exterior lies an epic origin story. Now over 130 years old, the granite and limestone structure has dazzled both tourists and residents alike. On the other side of this iconic span lies a transformed industrial waterfront now one of the most visited neighborhoods in all of New York, complete with a beach, roof-top parks, and great eating. Our unique walking tour will combine a walk across the bridge over through the heart of DUMBO to give you a whole new appreciation for one of New York’s most iconic landmarks and the now-famous Brooklyn neighborhood right under it. 

Ear pieces are provided to each guest, ensuring everyone hears the guide perfectly, even from a distance!
