Tour guidato in bici sul lungomare del ponte di Brooklyn
Descrizione
Vedremo il ponte di Brooklyn, Brooklyn Heights, il Brooklyn Bridge Park e il distretto dei magazzini DUMBO. Dopo un breve tour dell'area del municipio, attraversiamo il ponte di Brooklyn con soste per le perfette operazioni fotografiche dello splendido skyline di Wall Street. Mentre sono lì, condividerò approfondimenti storici sulle icone gemelle dell'East River di New York City: i ponti di Manhattan e Brooklyn. Proseguiremo verso le affascinanti strade di arenaria di Brooklyn. Dopo una sosta alla bellissima Promenade, attraverseremo il più nuovo, innovativo e bellissimo parco giochi sul lungomare di 85 acri di New York, il Brooklyn Bridge Park (appena aperto nel 2010). Ci saranno soste e servizi fotografici in abbondanza nei distretti shabby-chic di spedizione e magazzino di DUMBO, Vinegar Hill e Brooklyn Navy Yard. Darai una sbirciatina alla storia dell'industria marittima di Brooklyn che un tempo prosperava su questi moli e strade di ciottoli.
Opzioni del tour
Itinerario
Parco storico dove il generale George Washington ha letto la Dichiarazione di Indipendenza, circondato da Municipio, Edificio Municipale, Palazzo di Giustizia di Tweed, Edificio di Woolworth e altre icone della città.
Il capolavoro di John Augustus Roebling unisce ingegneria e arte. Passeremo con molte fermate per le foto degli skyline di Manhattan e Brooklyn.
Brooklyn Heights è dove troveremo eleganti pietre marroni del XIX secolo in tranquille strade alberate. Scopri perché Matt Damon, Paul Giamatti ed Emily Blunt e John Krasinski hanno fatto di questo quartiere la loro casa.
La Promenade of Brooklyn Heights non ha bar, il posto migliore a New York City per apprezzare lo skyline imponente delle torri di Wall Street. Ci fermeremo qui.
Il parco più recente di New York si trova sotto il ponte. Inaugurato nel 2010, e ancora in fase di completamento, questo parco di 85 acri è una riproposizione postindustriale di sei moli di spedizione commerciali abbandonati.
DUMBO era un tempo un vivace centro di spedizioni e industria con molti magazzini del XIX secolo. Oggi è rinato come un quartiere glamour che è allo stesso tempo sfarzoso e grintoso.
Torneremo a Manhattan Bridge, offrendoci vedute a volo d'uccello di North Brooklyn, Queens e East River.
Torneremo al negozio attraverso l'East River Park e attraverseremo parti di Chinatown e lo storico South Street Seaport.

This is a two hour bike trip with a competent friendly and knowledgeable leader named Scott. Bike and helmet were provided, and Scott adjusted and changed bikes if needed. I am a 70 year old and took this tour with my 2 teenage grandkids and younger brother. I am active but hadn’t been on a bike in decades! Riding the uphill part to cross the Brooklyn Bridge was a bit difficult for me and I walked the bike for a short part of it - but the majority of the ride was flat or downhill. My family had no trouble at all and loved it! Scott was super helpful to me and very kind! We had amazing views of Manhattan, several picture opportunities, and really enjoyed seeing the parks and neighborhoods in Brooklyn. What a great and unique activity! We all loved it. Great for families or couples or solos! If you’re thinking about it- do it!
Had the pleasure of taking Scott’s Brooklyn Waterfront bike tour this past weekend. It was a great experience and Scott was a very knowledgeable guide.
The ride it self was not hard and Scott rode at our pace the history of Brooklyn and the bridge was very informative and Scott was great at it.
Had a great time! Loved seeing the beautiful views and the Brooklyn heights area! Scott was great!!
Top to discover Brooklyn!
We had a wonderful experience on a personal guided tour across the Brooklyn Bridge in New York. Our guide, Scott, was a friendly and engaging person who shared many fascinating stories—not only about the bridge’s origins, but also about the DUMBO area and much more. He took his time to make the tour special, even helping us take photos together along the way, which we really appreciated. It felt relaxed, personal, and very informative. This is truly a great tour, and we would highly recommend it—definitely a five-star experience!
A great way to see a part of the city which you wouldn’t find on your own. Scott’s local knowledge of development in the area was fun and informative.
Scott led an unforgettable bike tour of the most beautiful parts of New York City. He was very knowledgable, funny, and intent on ensuring everyone was satisfied and enjoying their time. I highly recommend this tour and would candidly do the exact same one again in the future. It was the best tour/organized activity I did on my NY vacation.
Scott was an excellant tour guide. The information he shared was very interesting. He was very wasy to work with. He was very responsive to texts. I would highly recommend Scott for any of his tours of NYC and Brooklyn.
Excellent bike ride. Scott was very personable and knowledgeable. Highly recommend as a way to see Brooklyn. I would have never experienced the waterfront or neighborhoods if it was not for this trip. It makes me ant to come back and explore more of Brooklyn
