The Foodstrolls Coney Island tour was amazing. We had no idea what rich history the area has, and the stroll through Brighton Beach was an immersive look into Eastern European culture. The food is fabulous and you can always grab a hotdog and take a stroll on the board walk.

Fascinating walk through Coney Island. Alex knows everything about the neighborhood. He then took us to several small shops in Brighton Beach and ordered some very yummy food!
