Q&A

Q: What should I wear for the Brooklyn Bridge walking tour? Is it casual or more dressy?

A: I'd recommend wearing comfortable shoes since there will be a lot of walking! Casual attire is totally fine—think jeans and a nice top. Also, if it’s sunny, bring a hat or sunglasses because you’ll be outdoors quite a bit.

Q: How long does the tour usually last? I want to plan my day accordingly.

A: The tour typically lasts around 2 to 2.5 hours, but it can vary a bit depending on the group size and questions from participants. It’s a good idea to allocate some extra time before and after just in case you want to explore DUMBO a bit more!

Q: Can I bring my kids on this tour? Are there any age restrictions?

A: Yes, you can bring kids along! There aren't strict age limits, but I’d suggest keeping in mind that it involves walking and might not be super entertaining for very young kids. Just make sure they can handle a bit of walking. Parents often say it’s a great experience to teach them about history!

Just did the Brooklyn Bridge tour—what an experience!

I went on the Brooklyn Bridge and DUMBO District Guided Walking Tour last week and it was so worth it! The guide was super knowledgeable and shared some incredible stories about the bridge's history. Walking across the bridge with the Manhattan skyline in the background is something I’ll never forget. DUMBO was charming too! I highly recommend it for anyone who loves a mix of history and beautiful views.

Thinking about gifting the Brooklyn Bridge tour—thoughts?

I’m considering buying the Brooklyn Bridge walking tour as a gift for my sister’s birthday. She loves architecture and NYC! Is it as good as it sounds? Also, is there a good time of day to go?
