Overview

Have you ever wanted to visit Coney Island but weren't sure how to get there or what you would find? I spent my childhood riding the famous Cyclone and Wonder Wheel and swimming in the Atlantic Ocean there and loving every minute of it. Let me show you my Brooklyn!

We can go on the many exciting rides, walk on the famous Boardwalk and finish up by having Hot Dogs at Nathan's (where they were invented) and have their amazingly delicious fries! Visit Williams Candy store for some authentic Salt Water Taffy! Children will especially enjoy the New York Aquarium and the kiddie rides at Luna Park. On the subway there, you'll have views of the backyards and rooftops of Brooklyn.

Bring a towel and a bathing suit and we'll take a dip in the Atlantic Ocean if you'd like!
