My friend was born in Brooklyn and my family is from there, so we wanted to learn about the borough that our families came from. In our research, we came upon this tour. Our Made in Brooklyn tour provided me and my friend an insider's look into the history, culture, and food of Brooklyn. Dom, a native Brooklynite, was so friendly and personable! He shared with us lots of fascinating information and lesser-known facts about the people and places of Bensonhurst. What was so great was that being from this part of the city, he knew the owners of places like the pork shop, an Italian deli, and other markets and restaurants. The owners and employees took time to talk with us and I felt like I really got to know not only the neighborhood but the people as well. Everyone loved Dom and they were all so friendly and welcoming. And the food! Of course going to Brooklyn, we were looking for good places to eat and Dom did not disappoint. The panini shop was amazing and the prosciutto rice balls at the Italian deli were delicious. My friend and I are planning to return with a cooler to stock up at the Italian market! It was an unforgettable day with an amazing tour guide!

My wife booked the Made in Brooklyn tour for my birthday. From the booking process to meeting up and ending the tour it very informative and organized. Meeting Dom and exploring Dumbo along with the very intriguing stories of who built Dumbo and parts of Brooklyn was icing on the cake. We had a blast and would recommend this to anyone seeking a slice of the history of Brooklyn. Once you book you’ll be confident that Dom will take you on a find walking adventure through Dumbo to learn about the people who made and are still making this city what it is today. Excellent tour and would recommend to anyone visiting!

We had a fabulous tour with Dom on a picture perfect Day! Dom is so knowledgeable and passionate during his tours. Behind the scenes meet and greets with artists and shop owners are offered with a personal touch. The history, the art, the food and people watching under the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan Bridge neighborhoods made for a very enjoyable day. Take a tour with Dom and you will not be disappointed!
