Dom was a great guide and took us to several cool maker spots around DUMBO. We saw a variety of crafts people and enjoyed some tasty treats along the way, too. Lots of fun, and a great way to spend the afternoon.
Thank you for taking the time to review the Made in Brooklyn Tour! I hope to see you on the next another "Made in Brooklyn" themed tour soon!
A very fun and informative afternoon of history and what’s new in DUMBO! Great guide and learned a lot from him!
I'm glad you enjoyed the tour! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. See you on the next one!
What a wonderful tour we had with Dom! So knowledgeable of the Brooklyn history- and he speaks from his heart- which makes this tour so memorable and Fun!! Incorporating some local businesses he has relationships with made us feel like locals! Dom we'll see you in the Spring for Coney Island!
Thank you so much! Yes, come back in the Spring for Coney! Looking forward to seeing you again.
Dom is an excellent guide and really was tuned into what we liked and pivoted in discussion with the businesses to get the best out of each place visited. It rained and he totally worked on moving things around for us. So knowledgeable! I would do his other tours!
Yay! Rain or shine - the tour must go on! Glad you enjoyed the tour. Let's do it again some time. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.
We had the pleasure of taking the Made in Brooklyn tour with Dom, and it was an absolute highlight of our trip. Dom was extremely informative, sharing fascinating details about the historic buildings in the heart of DUMBO and memorable stories about the construction of the Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Williamsburg bridges. But the tour was so much more than history — Dom introduced us to artisanal shops, unique local experiences, and even arranged for us to meet a local artist in his workspace, which was an unforgettable glimpse into Brooklyn’s creative community. His knowledge, passion, and ability to bring the neighborhood’s past and present to life made this tour both educational and truly special. Highly recommended!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! It means a helluva lot to be appreciated! Made in Brooklyn Tours is at your service! Come again and we'll visit another beloved Brooklyn nabe!
Absolutely fantastic tour! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, very sweet, and made the whole experience so enjoyable. It was fun, informative, and overall one of the best tours I’ve ever been on. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting!
So cool! And I'm sweet too! Well, we do end with candy. ;) Thank you very much for the positive review. Much appreciated!
We had a fantastic experience touring the DUMBO area and Brooklyn Bridge with our guide, Dom Gervasi. His deep knowledge truly brought the neighborhood's history to life. He shared fascinating stories about the old headquarters of Brillo Pads, Domino Sugar, Uneeda Biscuits and Yuban Coffee, connecting the past to the modern thriving Dumbo district. We especially appreciated his insights on the Italian immigrants and their two waves of arrival in Brooklyn, giving us a deeper appreciation for the area's diverse heritage. Dom introduced us to unique artisan shops and artists that we never would have found on our own, making the experience both cultural and personal.
It brings me great pleasure to inspire guests like yourselves with Brooklyn. With our heritage and present. See you again sometime! Thank you!
We had an opportunity to meet business owners & artists who shared information and their work. So fun and informative without feeling pressured to buy anything. Truly a magnificent day, learning about the area and its historical importance to Brooklyn. Dom was an amazing guide!
It's very nice to get feedback from my guests. Thank you for taking the time for this. I'm glad you enjoyed the tour and hope to see you again on other Made in Brooklyn Tours! Thank you!
I just did a Coney Island tour with Dom and it was excellent. He is very knowledgeable about the area and gave us a thorough historical tour of the beginnings of Coney island and more. I would highly recommend this tour.
Thanks you sooooo much! Glad you enjoyed your time in Coney Island! Come back soon on other Made in Brooklyn Tours! :)
This is an amazing tour! Dom was born and lives in Brooklyn and he does an awesome job showing off his wonderful borough. The tour covered history, art, Brooklyn's manufacturing heritage and the best hot chocolate in the world. We had an awesome time - enjoyed the tour, getting to know the area and spending the day with Dom. Highly recommend
Awesome! Very happy to learn how much you enjoyed the tour! Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review. I hope to see you next time - in Coney Island or on the Made in Brooklyn Food Tour! :)
