Tour privato del ponte di Brooklyn con un locale
Descrizione
Tutti gli altri vengono al ponte per scattare una foto e andare avanti. Non noi: capiremo l'enorme sforzo che è stato necessario per costruire il Ponte, le vite perse e fatte, gli scandali e le celebrazioni. È un ponte così bello, ma ancora meglio quando capisci come è nato. Per molti versi la storia di New York è la storia del ponte di Brooklyn. Quasi nulla di ciò che vedete nella Città esisteva prima del Ponte - useremo il Ponte come un modo per capire la Città che gli è sorta intorno - gli edifici, gli altri ponti, il sistema di trasporto, le persone. E poi ci sono tutte le storie divertenti che abbracciano 140 anni. Avremo un pieno zeppo di 90 minuti esplorando il ponte, la città e la loro storia.

Ci incontreremo in una delle zone più antiche di Brooklyn. Passeremo 30 minuti a camminare intorno alla base del ponte, ammirando le migliori viste di esso e discutendo la straordinaria storia di come è stato costruito
Poi attraverseremo il ponte, avendo la possibilità di esaminare l'architettura da vicino. Camminare sul Ponte è un'esperienza incredibile e parleremo di quanto e quanto poco questo processo sia cambiato negli ultimi 140 anni, concludendo la storia della sua costruzione e della sua lunga vita
Finiremo sul lato Manhattan del Ponte all'interno del delizioso City Hall Park dove possiamo vedere il lato alternativo del Ponte.

!Very interesting and informative! We learned so many fascinating facts about the bridge and its history.
Jon was an amazing host and shared in depth history pertaining to the construction of the Brooklyn Bridge. He is passionate about his City and the Bridge that served as an architectural/engineering feat that took NYC to amazing heights!
Brooklyn bridge walking tour with Jonathan was probably the most memorable experience during our trip in New York City. He was knowledgeable, informative and passionate about the bridge. We highly recommend booking with Jonathan (local). Thank you so much for a wonderful experience!
If you want to walk the Brooklyn Bridge, and never forget you crossed it, go with Jonathan. He is extremely well informed; he knows about the details ánd the historical context. And, not a minor detail: he is a storyteller pur sang. You’ll hear about the family who built it, the disasters that happened on the way, about construction challenges in those days and why it’s still here today. During the walk he shows historical pictures and drawings for a better understanding. Honestly, after having crossed the bridge with him, you are as passionate about it as he is. / This message is from a historian from the Netherlands.
Jon, our private Tour Guide, was personable and patient with our questions, knowlegable about the Bridge's history and architecture- very insightful. He knew the Roebling family history well, and 1000+ points for his many shout-outs to the critical, central role that Emily Roebling played in the Bridge's completion! Plus, it was a sunny, clear evening, and the Sunset was absolutely spectacular. I would recommend Jon's tour to anyone.
Jon was knowledgeable and passionate about the subject. Great experience with valuable insights about this iconic bridge!

We enjoyed this tour a lot. Our guide John has a lot of knowledge of the bridge and its history. He will take you to the best spots for pictures and he will share a lot of great and interesting information. Thank you John, we had a very good time and you were great!
We had an amazing time with our guide Jonathan. His passion and knowledge for the Brooklyn Bridge was outstanding. He so rightly said when we were talking that a bridge is just a bridge until you know about it's history and he was so right. The background of the architecture, building and all it's history were mind blowing. It was such a hot day and we had such a great experience. Jonathan is a credit to your team and I cannot recommend him enough. Thank you Jonathan for such a great day :) Sally and the Family xxx
