We had an amazing time! Irene did an amazing job with the history of Brooklyn Heights/Dumbo. We were amazed with some of the facts with the Brooklyn Bridge. Irene provided us with additional suggestions and helped us navigate our day. 5 stars to Irene! The tour was very informative and definitely a must do!

Irene was a FANTASTIC tour guide! She was so knowledgeable about the area and was so patient with all our questions. We stopped to use the bathroom and we got coffee halfway through, she was so kind! It was a pleasure learning about Brooklyn from you!

Irene created the perfect blend of history, fun facts, and interesting sights to keep us fully immersed and engaged during our 2-hour tour of Brooklyn. We have been to Manhattan many times but this was our first visit to Brooklyn and we now have a deep appreciation of it and a desire to return and spend more time enjoying the eclectic neighborhoods that make up this gem of a city.
