Great Brooklyn bridge and dumbo tour

I took their Brooklyn bridge and dumbo tour (on a 90* day no less) and had a great time! My guide, Louis, was super knowledgeable and also made sure to keep us out of the sun whenever possible. Untapped tours are some of my faves in the city and this one lived up to expectations for sure!

Operator response

Thanks so much for this fantastic review, and for braving a 90-degree day with us! We're so glad you had a great time. It's wonderful to hear that Louis's knowledge and thoughtfulness in keeping you out of the sun made the tour even more enjoyable. We're thrilled that we lived up to your expectations and that you consider us one of your favorites in the city! We look forward to welcoming you on another tour soon!

Great tour!

Well organised tour, in a small group setting. We learnt a lot more about the bridge and the city than we would have on our own. Our guide Louis was very helpful and answered all our questions even after the tour had ended.

Brooklyn Bridge Tour

We had Louis as a tour leader had he was a wealth of information. He had some very interesting insights. Very willing to answer any questions we had. The tour was great and would highly recommend this. Be sure to walk back over the Brooklyn Bridge to Manhattan as you get the best view that way.

Come for the Brooklyn Bridge, stay for the history!

Our guide Justin gave us so many insider tips about the bridge, and its importance in the history and challenges of the development of NYC's and Brooklyn transportation systems. The pace was perfect and having a guide so knowledgeable, who knew how to engage his audience, made for a great adventure!

Operator response

Awww thanks so much for this review Jackie. It is always a pleasure to lead you and your family. I have so much fun and I'm glad you enjoyed our adventure over the Brooklyn Bridge. Till the next time, take good care!

Highly recommend this tour.

Had a wonderful time on this tour. Mandy our guide was phenomenal. She has such passion and knowledge about the bridge but NYC as well. She even plays an unknown Frank Sinatra song while we are on the bridge arhat is about the bridge. So fun.

Operator response

Many is phenomenal and we always feel lucky to work with her. I also love that plays that Sinatra song on the bridge itself. It’s such a special memory for so many of our guests. Thanks for leaving the review and take good care!

Siked myself out I can run a Marathon

Not bad from Brooklyn to Manhattan, New York. I thought it would be difficult for me, But I did stop a few time. All in all the venders and food was good Check out the Halal Chicken at the entrance lot very good. Also, Venders with souveniors are available and nice pictures can be taken. The experience was very good I thought I was walking slow but I made it. Enjoyable walk too check out From Manhatten and Brooklyn or reverse. Signora G. Jones

Ethylic and Gastronomic Tour

Very interesting the tour with a sensational view and must-see the region of the Dumbo with the Pebble beach, the banks of the River, the park and the Time Out with various bar and restaurant options. Indicate the Cecconi and his black truffles

A joy!

No spoilers here, but there were some unexpected moments on this tour. And guide Mandy was engaging, knowledgeable and fun to be around. I learned more about when and how the Bridge was built – and the characters involved, including an elephant or two! Don't miss it. I also did Untapped's brand new Gilded Age tour – a fascinating stroll down history lane while walking up 5th Avenue. Our unforgettable guide Justin provided an afternoon jam-packed with facts, intriguing stories and inside information. Catch this if you can. Full disclosure: I'm already an Untapped fan as an 'Insider' but up to now have mostly only been able to 'attend' virtual events. Those are usually pretty cracking too.
