Brooklyn Bridge & Dumbo Walking Tour
Discover the secrets of the iconic Brooklyn Bridge and explore the hip New York neighbourhood of Dumbo on this guided walking tour.
Brooklyn Bridge & Dumbo Walking Tour Itinerary
Your guided walking tour will begin after meeting in Titanic Memorial Park, in Downtown Manhattan. From this memorial to the victims of the fated RMS Titanic, you'll explore the Seaport District, a historic port area and home to Pier 17, which is these day's one of New York's coolest shopping and entertainment centres, with bars, restaurants and a music venue.
Leave Lower Manhattan behind, crossing over the East River via the emblematic Brooklyn Bridge, one of the symbols of New York. Discover how long it took to build the structure, what secrets are hidden in its Neo-Gothic architecture, and more curious facts as you walk along the famous pedestrianised route. What's more, this vantage point gives you some of the most incredible views over New York's skyline and the South Street Seaport.
On the opposite bank of the East River, Brooklyn awaits you, one of the five boroughs that make up New York City. Amongst the most popular areas of Brooklyn, Dumbo has become a highlight in recent years. Now, the neighbourhood has nothing to do with the big-eared Disney elephant - it's actually an acronym for Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass.
You'll then enjoy a guided tour around Dumbo, discovering the contrasts between the cool new shops and bars and the older, traditional spots, which create such an interesting area. You'll soon discover why Dumbo is such a hip neighbourhood!
Finish your guided tour in Brooklyn Bridge Park, where you'll enjoy yet more spectacular views of the world-famous Manhattan skyline.
