Overview

We'll see Brooklyn Bridge, Brooklyn Heights, Brooklyn Bridge Park and the DUMBO warehouse district. After a quick tour of City Hall area, we roll over the Brooklyn Bridge with stops for the perfect photo ops of the gorgeous Wall Street skyline. While there, I'll share historical insights into the twin icons of New York City's East River: the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges. We'll continue on to the charming brownstone streets of Brooklyn. After a stop at the beautiful Promenade, we'll zip through NYC's newest, most innovative and beautiful 85-acre waterfront playground, the Brooklyn Bridge Park (just opened in 2010). There will be stops and photo ops galore in the shabby-chic shipping and warehouse districts of DUMBO, Vinegar Hill and the Brooklyn Navy Yard. You’ll get a peek into the history of Brooklyn’s shipping industry that once thrived on these docks and cobblestone streets.

Reviews

New bike lanes are awesome!

Christine_A, 12-12-2022

Biking over the Brooklyn Bridge was fantastic! I was excited to try the new lanes that were added specifically for people on bikes. In the past, I had had to go mingle with pedestrians, and the congestion was awful. Thanks to Scott for being such a great tour guide!

Bike tour of Brooklyn

Scott was an engaging guide. He shared lots of interesting local knowledge and history. He made sure that the roads we traveled on were safe for bikes and stop off points had the best views. Scott, very kindly, brought along some hot spiced cider to warm us up on a frosty New York day.

Great and unique experience in bike around Brooking
