Overview

Explore two of NYC’s most beautiful neighborhoods on a lively stroll through Brooklyn Heights and DUMBO, combining spectacular views, remarkable architecture, hidden gems, and fascinating stories.

We’ll begin in historic Brooklyn Heights, walking past beautiful brownstones while discovering the people and events that helped shaped America. Hear stories about artists, writers, entrepreneurs, activists, and celebrities who have called Brooklyn home.

From there, we’ll make our way to DUMBO, a former industrial hub transformed into one of NYC’s most vibrant waterfront districts. Along the way, we’ll stroll the Promenade, enjoying iconic views of the Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan skyline, and New York Harbor.
