Brooklyn:
Experience New York City’s hippest, hottest borough. Full of artists, bohemians, and quirky coffee shops, this definitely isn’t your grandfather’s Brooklyn! This tour takes you through two top neighborhoods—DUMBO and Brooklyn Heights—where you’ll see the borough’s artsiest and most historic sights.
Get exceptional views of the Brooklyn Bridge and learn its complex history—including the story of how New Yorkers initially refused to set foot on it. Pay a visit to Brooklyn’s two most famous pizzerias and grab a slice of some drama by hearing about the bitter rivalry which has long pitted the two against one another. Swing past some artsy shops and say hello to the former house of Truman Capote, author of Breakfast at Tiffany’s.
There’s also no better spot to view Manhattan’s iconic skyline than from right here, so be ready to snap some seriously envy-inducing photos along the way!
