I can't rate this tour highly enough: it was up there, literally, with some of our favourite moments here in the big apple. Kyle told the stories behind the iconic bridge with passion and insight; we loved learning about Bad Boss Tweed and the inspiring true life story of how the engineer's wife, Emily Robelyn, brought the bridge to fruition after disaster struck. Unlike many tours with their information dump, I know these stories will stay with me. Great stuff from a friendly guy who's commited to making sure you have a wonderful time. Great job Kyle, thank you🤗

The tour was amazing. Rich in details and full of energy. We really enjoyed every moment. And the guide, Kyle, was really nice and friendly. He helped us to feel into the history of Brooklyn Bridge and DUMBO.
