Visit the Best of Brooklyn

Founded in 1646, Brooklyn is the most populated borough of NYC. Come explore two vastly different neighborhoods, Brooklyn Heights and DUMBO and learn about their heyday and how they have transformed over the years. This tour has breathtaking views of the New York skyline and we will end with a walk back to Manhattan over the iconic Brooklyn Bridge.

“The Brooklyn tour was outstanding. It got me away from the touristy areas of NYC and opened my eyes to a whole new area. I now feel comfortable with all areas of Brooklyn including Brooklyn Heights, DUMBO and Prospect Park. Shawn was an outstanding tour guide and provided a vast knowledge of information about Brooklyn including historical and pop-culture about the area.”

“I booked with Real New York tours purely based in the reviews, and I have to say I was not disappointed. Shawn introduced himself to us and instantly it was like meeting an old friend and we were going for a stroll together. If anybody wants to know (and fall for) Brooklyn book this tour. Thank you Real New York tours and thank you Shawn, you have an amazing Borough and a truly amazing tour”
