Excellent Tour! Such a lovely experience!! Our tour guide, Mandy, was wonderful and had so many interesting facts (and images (and an artifact!!) to share!!
Justin contacted us the day before the tour to let us know that Mandy would be our guide. Mandy has degrees in geology and archeology and worked as a Park Ranger in NYC-area sites. Her passion for and deep knowledge about the Brooklyn Bridge was evident. At the beginning of the tour she shared a book published in 1893-ish that collected all of the speeches given by dignitaries at the Bridge's opening ceremony. She also brought a large collection of photos and documents related to the bridge's planning and construction. She told us about the history, engineering, and societal importance of the bridge. I'm sure that Justin is wonderful but we felt very lucky to be touring with Mandy. Highly recommend.
This tour was worth every penny. Take your camera because you’ll get an unbelievable view and notice more than you possibly could just walking Brooklyn Bridge on your own. Justin, the guide, is a total pro, he’s probably given this tour gazillions of times, but still has plenty of patience to answer simple questions and let us enjoy discovering what is new to us.
Justin is the bomb! Who knew there were champagne vaults in the Brooklyn Bridge! You need an expert to weave you through the Brooklyn Bridge, where everyone wants to go but don’t know the tips. Justin took us down little known staircases, told the incredible story of the bridge, and showed us a great afternoon walking from Manhattan to Brooklyn Heights/Dumbo.
This tour revealed the fascinating history of the Brooklyn Bridge! It's such an iconic landmark that anyone would recognize but it was so interesting to learn the little-known stories you wouldn't know about unless you took this tour, like the champagne vaults hidden inside!
The mere fact that this tour takes place on the Brooklyn Bridge means off the bat it's going to be amazing because of the views, but the commentary and secret places we learned about made it even better. Everyone can recognize the Brooklyn Bridge, but who knew there was Cold War fallout shelter inside of it?!
I always wanted to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge and I'm so glad I did it with this tour! I learned so much about the bridge's history and all the hidden things that are INSIDE of it. I would have never known about any of that cool stuff if I just walked it myself.
Wow! Cold War era shelters in the Brooklyn Bridge? That's cool... and I had no idea it was there although I walked or biked the bridge many times. Also really liked the story of Emily Roebling and how she basically was in charge of the bridge's construction once her husband got sick.
Justin did an amazing job with this experience (this is my 3rd experience with Justin -- he is awesome!!). I've crossed the bridges going to/from Manhattan many times, but never knew how fascinating their stories can be! This tour was filled with lots of interesting/secret tidbits about the Brooklyn Bridge -- who knew there was a nuclear shelter in the bridge, for example?? Highly recommend this to anyone interested in getting a deeper understanding of NYC. Also, the views from the bridge are great!
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. Our unique Brooklyn Bridge walking tour will give you a whole new appreciation for one of New York’s most iconic landmarks.
